Mumbai Housing Transactions Surge 7% YoY in Q3, Festive Offers to Boost Demand
Real Estate Mumbai:Residential real estate transactions in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) witnessed a 7% year-on-year growth, reaching 52,745 during the July-September quarter of the current year, according to a report by proptech startup Square Yards. The total registered home sales value also saw a 10% annual increase, totaling ₹48,409 crore. This pushed the average home sales value in the region to nearly ₹1 crore, a 3% increase compared to the same period last year.

Ganesh Devadiga, Sales Director at Square Yards, stated, 'Our insights indicate that demand continues to span across all price brackets, with both peripheral and core suburbs demonstrating sustained activity. Our outlook for the region remains highly optimistic, as the upcoming festivals, such as Dussehra and Diwali, along with developer-driven schemes and offers, are expected to further bolster buyer sentiment.' He added, 'Additionally, recent infrastructure upgrades and the key ones underway are poised to enhance connectivity and overall livability in Mumbai MMR, providing a strong boost to the region’s real estate sector.'

Regional Breakdown\nThe report highlighted that properties priced below ₹50 lakh accounted for 52% of all transactions during the quarter, up from 50% during the same period last year, primarily driven by peripheral areas.

In terms of size, properties under 500 square feet, followed by those between 500–1,000 square feet, dominated, representing 92% of all registered transactions. 1 BHK and 2 BHK units remained the most popular choices for homebuyers in the region.

Peripheral suburbs continued to dominate the MMR market in the September quarter. Kalyan-Dombivli and its neighboring areas, along with Navi Mumbai, each accounted for approximately 20% of the 52,745 registered residential transactions. Mumbai's western suburbs captured 18% of total transactions. The western suburbs also led in terms of registered home sales value, securing the largest share at 32% of the overall ₹46,409 crore clocked during the September quarter.

Thane West maintained its position as the top locality in both the volume and value of registrations, with 3,895 units registered, totaling ₹3,568 crore in the three-month period. Dombivli East and Mira Road East followed Thane West in total registered residential transactions, while Kandivali East, Malad West, and Andheri West ranked next in terms of registered home sales value.
