Gurugram-based property consulting firm InfraMantra founder Shiwang Suraj said the return on investment from real estate has surpassed returns from all other investment tools.
"Demand continues to be robust even at elevated price points as is evident from the fall in property conversion time," he added.
Abhishek Trehan, Executive Director of Trehan Iris, said, "The significant rise in housing prices across NCR since 2019, reflects the region's growing appeal and evolving real estate landscape." As demand continues to outpace supply, he said, "We have witnessed a surge in homebuyers who are increasingly looking for long-term investments in robust, well-connected locations in Delhi NCR." This price appreciation is not just a short-term trend, but a clear indication of the region's economic resilience, infrastructure development, and its appeal as a hub for professionals and homebuyers alike, Trehan said.
Arjun Nanda, Founder & CEO of real estate consultancy firm Your Home (YHATAW), said, "Gurugram has been a standout market, excelling in both sales and value appreciation. Key infrastructure projects like Dwarka Expressway have driven demand and price growth. While housing prices have risen in line with increased land and material costs, we anticipate future stability or modest growth.
