Festive season is traditionally considered to be an auspicious time for buying properties.

It is a time when most of the developers launch especial offers including discounts on properties, gold coins on every purchase to organising lucky draws, developers adopt every trick to attract buyers.

Naturally, people come out in large numbers to hunt for their dream homes.

With interest rates falling sharply over the last six months and most banks linking their home loan to RBI's repo rate, there are chances of further reduction in interest rate, the time is near perfect for buyers.

Moreover, with property prices remaining almost stagnant in the last couple of years also augurs well for the buyers. Amid the favourable conditions, developers are expected to report decent sales numbers even without offering 'expensive' return gifts.

 

"With the onset of the festive season, end customers, as well as developers, look forward to making the most of it. Festival season begins from Ganesh Chaturthi and lasts till Diwali. It's considered most auspicious time to invest. It is the time when developers offer many offerings and freebies to attract buyers and push their selling. On the other hand, buyers consider festival season as an auspicious time to own a property.

Data available with PropTiger.com show that over 4 lakh ready to move in housing units lying unsold in nine major property markets are priced within the Rs 45 lakh bracket. Investing in these units would allow additional savings in the form of an increased tax deduction limit of Rs 1.50 lakh on interest paid on a home loan as announced in the Budget in July.
