Soaring Housing Prices in Delhi-NCR and Mumbai: A 50% Jump in 5 Years
Real Estate News:The average housing prices in Delhi-NCR and Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) have witnessed a remarkable surge of nearly 50% over the past five years, according to a report by Anarock, a leading real estate consultant. This significant jump in prices can be attributed to the increased demand, steep hikes in construction costs, and healthy sales.

In Delhi-NCR, the average rate of residential properties has risen by 49% to Rs 6,800 per square foot in January-June 2024, from Rs 4,565 per square foot in the same period of 2019. Similarly, in MMR, the average housing prices have grown 48% to Rs 15,650 per square feet, up from Rs 10,610 per square feet during the same period.

Anarock notes that prices in both regions had remained stagnant from late 2016 to 2019. However, the COVID-19 pandemic brought a paradigm shift, causing demand to soar to new heights. Initially, developers induced sales with offers and freebies, but with demand heading north, they gradually increased average prices.

Experts believe that the surge in housing prices in Delhi-NCR is driven by infrastructural developments, enhanced connectivity, and the region's potential for sustainable growth and investment opportunities. The development of road infrastructure has been a significant factor in the rise of property prices in Delhi-NCR and adjoining cities.

Additionally, the demand for spacious homes has increased significantly since the pandemic, with people prioritizing larger living spaces. The region's status as a major economic hub is also attracting investors in the Delhi-NCR property market.
