property market
Year Ender 2024: This year there was tremendous growth in the real estate sector. According to reports from Knight Frank India and NAREDCO, there was a huge surge in demand for mid-segment and luxury properties. Investment in properties worth more than Rs 1 crore increased, which brought cheer to the developers. While the affordable segment was almost wiped out due to the demand for property, flats worth crores became the most demanding segment. Strong demand for property led to a record increase in prices. In 2024, property prices from metro cities to tier two cities are expected to increase by 30% to 50%. The brunt of this fell on the end users. Many people are unable to buy a house even if they want to because the price of the property goes beyond their budget. Let us know what the developers say regarding 2024 and 2025?
