In the last few years, the real estate market has faced major hurdles. The RERA Act ( Real Estate Regulatory Authority) is in place now reviving and attracting a major chunk of investments. The major cities in India are able to contribute a lot to this industry. The active markets offer low risk, high liquidity and are characterized by active commercialisation with higher investment returns.
This has given a rise to rental properties but has lower vacancy and exit risks. The emerging markets offer high investment returns with increasing liquidity and higher exit risks. Due to urbanisation and migration of people from city to city for better livelihood and work opportunities real estate investment is skyrocketing.
If you are interested in investing in the real estate market to make a wise decision you can categorize cities into active, emerging and dormant markets.
The first category cities would be Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Bangalore. While the second category would consist of the cities like Pune, Hyderabad and Chenna. Kolkata and Chandigarh would come in the third category for investment.
