Are Hong Kong buyers negotiating more after 35 days on market?

Good distinction. A simple timeline would capture that: listing, tax clarification, price cuts, agreement and completion. It avoids assuming every event after day 35 was caused by time on market.
 
Rather than searching only for sales at exactly 35 days, I’d use a band around that point and include nearby homes that were withdrawn. Otherwise one arbitrary cutoff will distort a small group. Keep neighbourhood and condition filters tight, then describe the outliers instead of averaging them away.
 
So the useful next step is a small case table, not a claim that Hong Kong has one negotiating rule. Start with the HK$4,774,000–HK$7,160,000 detached listings, preserve the full visible timeline, flag uncertain relistings, and add completed or withdrawn status. That should show whether day 35 coincides with cuts, resolution of tax questions, or no change at all.
