The table above shows there is a slight variation in the average sale price of inventories. The price has gone up just 4% in last one year. The inventory movement is not proportional to movement in housing prices. A top official of IIFL Home Loans says, “There is a direct relationship between sales and price. But here in real estate, sales have increased without much variation in prices. That means housing price correction is yet to be done in real estate market. So this is the best time for the home buyers to buy a new home. ”
The last year has also witnessed good inventory supply. This is because many stalled projects got completed due to an implementation of the Real Estate (Regulation & Development) Bill, 2016. The positive initiatives undertaken by the government such as Benami Transactions Bill, S.E.B.I’s relaxation norms for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITS) have ushered a positive sentiment in the realty market.
