Latest trends in Chennai real estate

Posted: Feb 14, 2015
Chennai is well-known for its traditional mind-set that reflects clearly on its realty market trends, also. For example, property buyers in Chennai have generally been focused on locality over and above most other considerations, and this had put certain limits on the demand and potential for community living in the city.
New Trends:
Up to now, there has been no possibility for the development of mega township projects in the city. Nowadays, Chennaiites are showing an unyielding preference to buy property in Chennai in the Central Business Districts due to the lack of schools, convenio, entertainment and hotels in other regions. But unfortunately, due to the dearth of spaces in central localities builders prefer suburbs to launch their projects. As a developer, they are glad to build projects of 12-30 units with all modern amenities, green cover and open spaces.
In the upcoming months, Chennai will witness a foremost change in this aspect, with a string of gated community projects by builders of nationwide stature under implementation and nearing its possession. These residential projects have minimum plot coverage that paves the way for larger greeneries and ‘lung space' within the township. This is an additional motivation to go for community living that was mostly unfamiliar till as late as 2006. At present, properties for sale in Chennai at gated townships are offered by large landscaping, tranquil environment, schools inside the campus, large clubhouses, health club services for both indoor and outdoor sports, multiplexes in the proximity, medical facilities, restaurants and big swimming pools.
As a result, community living in the right sense is lastly going to develop in Chennai. We expect that once these big projects are fully completed, we will get a significant forward momentum in the idea of large, well-furnished residential townships in Chennai.
General Situation - Supply & Demand:
Residential property for sale in Chennai is seeing a considerable demand in the affordable segments - particularly for units in the price band of Rs. 35-60 lakh - in localities which provide an acceptable degree of civic infrastructure.
