Although capital values of residential properties in most of the areas of Gurgaon is sky high, investors who had purchased properties, especially in the 60-sq. yard segment, in view of exorbitant returns are now adopting long-term perspective, and ready to wait rather than selling them in a hurry.
Oversupply
The premium residential property sector of Gurgaon is stricken by oversupply, flooded with $1 million-$2.5 million apartments and penthouses.
As per DTZ reports, the supply side in Gurgaon higher-end residential segment has far exceeded the demand side.
With this, the investors are not seeing the kind of returns that they had secured earlier from the deals, and that’s why their interest in buying residential property in Gurgaon is comparatively lower than it was a couple of years ago, MP Singh of Silver Estates informed.
Residential rentals- record boom
Residential rental segment in Gurgaon remains upbeat constantly. Owing to its vibrant economy, lifestyle of residents here keeps on improving, which in turn translate into demand for quality accommodation.
On an average 5-per cent hike has been noticed all across the major residential areas of Gurgaon between August and December 2007. “Biggest reason for this spike is availability. Since, vacancy rates for good-quality houses is low in the prime areas of Gurgaon, landlords manage to get enhanced rental values on their properties,” said Rajesh Kushwaha, a property dealer.
