Hyderabad: A Market For Luxury Properties
While the entire country is welcoming the emerging trend of affordable housing, it might seem like there are no takers for luxury and ultra-luxury homes. However, that is not true. Owing to India's economic growth and rising number of HNIs, the premium housing segment in the country, has become a dynamic segment of the Indian realty market.
In India, homes are usually classified as luxury, based on their size. So, a 3 or 4-BHK apartment or a duplex villa becomes the first choice for luxury property-buyers. Giving close competition to established markets of high-end properties like Gurgaon, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Bengaluru, Hyderabad is proving to be yet another preferred hub for high-end living.

What drives luxury housing in Hyderabad?
The luxury segment in Hyderabad accounts for approximately 15 per cent of the city's real estate market. The overall market here is comparatively cheaper as compared to other markets of south India, like Bengaluru and Chennai. A balanced demand and supply ratio has been a crucial factor, leading to an upsurge in property prices. Thus, the property market in the metropolis has attracted not just local buyers but the business class, as well as migrant IT professionals. Besides, regular HNIs and NRI investors have helped in sustaining the popularity of high-end properties in Hyderabad. Sound capital appreciation in this asset class is expected.
