Developers are responding to this demand by launching more luxury gated communities. These projects offer spacious units and modern amenities, catering to high-end buyers. According to the Confederation of Real Estate Developers' Associations of India (Credai) Trichy chapter, the city had 60 ongoing residential projects in 2024. With the expansion of Trichy airport, the upcoming Olympic academy, a new bus terminus at Panjapur, and Tidel Park, developers have launched 30 more projects this year, raising the total to 90 ongoing and ready-to-move units.
Demand has risen across various localities, including KK Nagar, Cantonment, Srirangam, and Crawford. Affluent families from nearby districts like Thanjavur, Pudukottai, and Sivaganga are also migrating to Trichy for better educational and healthcare access. 'Small developers from Chennai are eyeing Trichy too. First-generation graduates from rural families, often backed by bank loans, are buying flats for their parents,' said R Manoharan, president of Credai Trichy.
Property prices in the city range from ₹5,000 to ₹14,000 per sq. ft., with only 20–30% of last year's units unsold. Developers expect these to clear soon as buyers prefer ready-to-occupy flats. Demand has shifted from compact 2BHKs to larger 3BHKs, reflecting the hybrid work needs of the modern workforce. 'Luxury 4BHK units of around 5,000 sq. ft., including provisions for servant quarters, are gaining traction. Some units costing ₹5 crore have already found buyers,' said P Prakash, general manager, Saamy Developers.
With Tidel Park and upcoming industrial hubs in Manapparai and Thiruverumbur expected to create jobs, developers are planning high-rise projects of 11 floors or more, with an increased number of dwelling units to meet growing demand. NRIs are a significant driver of this demand, securing homes for their aged parents. Locals, including doctors and first-generation graduates, are also contributing to the market. Investors from nearby towns and cities are buying properties, driven by the city's growth potential.
Amenities in these gated communities include artificial football turfs, pickleball courts, rooftop gardens, EV charging points, and home theatres. These features are designed to enhance the quality of life for residents.
Key drivers of demand include the expansion of Trichy airport, Tidel Park, SIPCOT industrial parks, and the overall development of the city. High-rise projects are becoming more prevalent, with five existing and three proposed developments in hotspots like Woraiyur, Ramji Nagar, and the airport area.
