CREDAI Pune Expo 2026 Boosts Confidence in Pune Real Estate Market

Pune, 18th January 2026: The recently concluded 24th edition of the Pune Property Expo 2026, organised by CREDAI Pune, has emerged as a major confidence booster for both homebuyers and the real estate industry, signalling renewed optimism in the residential property market. At a time when buyers are cautious and value transparency more than ever, the expo created strong positivity, visibility, and trust across the sector.

With footfalls touching an impressive 25,000 over three days, the response from prospective buyers, investors, and industry stakeholders was “nothing short of phenomenal,” said Kapil Gandhi, Press Convenor, CREDAI Pune. The turnout reflected not only pent-up demand but also a growing preference for structured and credible platforms where buyers can evaluate multiple options, interact directly with developers, and receive reliable financial guidance under one roof.

The expo brought together over 80 reputed CREDAI member developers and showcased more than 400 MahaRERA-registered projects across Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, and the PMRDA region. From affordable housing and luxury apartments to villas, NA plots, senior living, co-living, and Grade A commercial spaces, the diversity on display highlighted the depth and maturity of the region’s real estate market.

A key contributor to the positive sentiment was the strong emphasis on credibility and compliance. All participating developers were CREDAI and MahaRERA registered, offering buyers reassurance on ethical practices, project authenticity, and delivery standards. This assurance is especially important for first-time homebuyers, who often find the property purchase process complex and intimidating.

Financial institutions also played a crucial role by offering on-the-spot home loan assistance, helping visitors understand eligibility, interest rates, and documentation requirements. Combined with attractive developer offers, organised infrastructure, and a comfortable, air-conditioned venue, the expo helped convert casual interest into serious intent to purchase.

A major highlight of this year’s event was the channel partner meet, branded as D2C 3.0, held a day before the public inauguration. Touted as the largest developer–channel partner networking initiative in India, the conclave saw record participation from over 1,000 channel partners across the country. Featuring knowledge sessions by leading industry influencers, discussions on market trends, and AI-driven sales insights, the meet underlined the growing professionalism and data-driven approach in real estate sales and distribution. The scale and success of the event strengthened the ecosystem by aligning developers and brokers on market expectations, customer behaviour, and best practices—ultimately benefiting homebuyers through better service and informed guidance.

Speaking on the occasion, Manish Jain, President, CREDAI Pune, said, “The CREDAI Pune Expo has evolved into a truly outstanding platform. From smooth registration and world-class infrastructure to the scale of participation, the effort put in by every developer was evident. Visitors experienced a seamless and rewarding event, with leading brands and the best projects showcased under one roof. What set this expo apart was that every participating developer was CREDAI and MahaRERA registered, ensuring credibility, ethical practices, and transparency.”

On the sidelines of the expo, Arvind Jain, Vice-President, CREDAI Pune, said, “With 24 years of legacy, the CREDAI Expo continues to evolve each year, consistently raising industry benchmarks. It is a one-stop platform where buyers can compare multiple projects, while channel partners gain access to quality inventory and a comprehensive view of the developer community, making it a win-win for all.”

Overall, the 24th edition of the Pune Property Expo 2026 has done more than facilitate property transactions. It has restored confidence, strengthened trust between buyers and developers, and reaffirmed the role of organised exhibitions as catalysts for market growth. In a sentiment-driven market, the strong response to this year’s expo signals that the real estate sector is firmly back on a growth path.
