Realty sector is one of the fast developing sectors or industries. Till early 1990, apartment in the city were a rarity. It was believed that apartment is only a home fortunate for the rich and famous. Local residents would prefer independent house even if they are small.
Most of the city now dwells in high-rise or apartment building. During the peak years, anywhere between 3,500 and 4,000 apartment units were sold in the city every month. Now only language home buyers speak is BHK (Bedroom, Hall and Kitchen). Property or apartment comes in all varieties from 1-BHK to 5-BHK. The residential market in the city predominantly catered to the Rs 30 lakh to Rs 70 lakh market segment. There have been apartments in the city, which have been sold for Rs 17 crore.
Now, there is a new residential market emerging — affordable homes and nano homes. Housing units costing between Rs 10 lakh to Rs 25 lakh fall into the affordable home bracket, and housing units costing between Rs 4 lakh to Rs 10 lakh are in the nano home market. The demand for housing has increased tremendously in recent time. Professionals in field of teaching, medicine and youngster in IT sector invest in realty for long term benefits.
One could probably attribute this fact to the growth in the number of developers in the city. From just having a handful of developers, who were mostly landowners in 1980s, today Bangalore has over 300 developers of all hues.
A Confident project in the Rs 12 lakh to Rs 17 lakh bracket launched two weeks ago on Sarjapur Road is said to have received 1,500 calls on the day of the launch, and 50 bookings in three days.
