The first half of 2024 saw Mumbai's real estate market achieve the highest half-yearly sales volume since 2012, with 47,259 units sold. This is largely attributed to the growing phenomenon of celebrity investments in the western suburbs.
Mumbai's western suburbs, including areas like Bandra and Khar, are emerging as a goldmine for real estate developers. The shift in customer preferences towards larger units has created a clear opportunity for developers to cash in on this trend.
However, the impact of this trend on property prices is yet to be seen. While celebrity investments may drive up demand for luxury properties, it remains to be seen how this will affect the average homebuyer.
Year after year, Mumbai remains one of India's most sought-after real estate markets. With its growing economy and infrastructure development, it's no wonder that the city continues to attract investors and homebuyers alike.
Knight Frank's recent study, 'India Real Estate Residential and Office Market,' highlights Mumbai's dominance in the Indian real estate market. The study reports that Mumbai accounted for the highest half-yearly sales volume among all metro cities, including Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, NCR, and Pune.
As the real estate market in Mumbai's western suburbs continues to boom, it will be interesting to see how this trend affects the overall market dynamics.
