Mumbai MMR: Residential Sales Surge by 7% YoY in Q2 2024
Real Estate Mumbai:Residential sales in Mumbai's Metropolitan Region (MMR) witnessed a remarkable surge in the September quarter of 2024. According to the latest data released by Square Yards, 52,745 residential transactions were registered from July to September, marking a 7% year-on-year (YoY) increase. Even more impressive is the 10% growth in the total sales value, which reached Rs 48,409 crore by the end of the quarter. This pushed the average home sales value in the region to nearly a crore, reflecting a 3% increase compared to the same period last year.

Ganesh Devadiga, Sales Director at Square Yards, commented, “Mumbai MMR has entered the festive season on a strong note, with over half-a-lakh residential transactions recorded in the September quarter. Our insights indicate that demand spans across all price brackets, with both peripheral and core suburbs showing sustained activity. The transaction volume has grown by 7% YoY, while the total sales value has risen by 10%, highlighting the market's continued appeal to developers.”

Looking ahead, Devadiga remains optimistic “Our outlook for the region is highly positive. The upcoming festivals, such as Dussehra and Diwali, along with developer-driven schemes and offers are expected to further enhance buyer sentiment. Recent infrastructure upgrades and ongoing projects are set to improve connectivity and overall liveability in Mumbai MMR, providing a strong boost to the real estate sector.”

In Mumbai MMR, the majority of residential transactions continue to occur in the low-to-mid range, particularly in peripheral regions. During the September quarter, properties priced below Rs 50 lakh accounted for 52% of all transactions, up from 50% in the same period last year. This trend is largely driven by the peripheral areas.
