Chennai Q2: Rental Property Tracker
Salient Features:
- Out of the top 5 rental markets based on availability and rental yield, maximum were skewed towards the southern part while remaining in the western part of the city.
- Demand in localities such as Chromepet, Velachery and Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR) is mainly influenced by the IT/ITeS professionals who prefer to live close to their work places.
- Moreover, both Chromepet and Velachery also boast of well-developed social infrastructure and good connectivity via Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS).
- Consistent need of rental properties in Madipakkam is primarily attributed to its strategic location. Situated along 200-ft-wide road, the area lies in close proximity to the IT hubs on OMR.
- Interestingly, Porur and Medavakkam are two markets that have retained top position in
terms of both availability and rental yield. While the former is benefitting due to its strategic location and the presence of chemical and manufacturing industries, the latter is growing due to the proximity to important IT and commercial areas such as Velachery, OMR, Pallavaram and Tambaram. - Excellent connectivity, proximity to IT hubs and availability of well-developed infrastructure have made Poonamallee score positive on the rental graph of the city. Also, the area receives spill-over demand from nearby Anna Nagar and Porur, where rents have become unaffordable for many.
- Affordable property values have helped Thoraipakkam to get a slot in the top markets for rental yield. IT industry seems to be the X factor for the development of real estate in this part of the city.
