Top Luxury Markets for Villas and Plots in Bangalore
Even as metro cities such as NCR and MMR have been grappling with real estate slowdown, the luxury housing market in Bangalore has demonstrated remarkable resilience. Over the last three years, the city has witnessed the growth and development of the luxury sector with constant demand flowing from IT/ITeS professionals and HNIs.
While apartments continue to be the first choice for many buyers, the market for luxury villas in Bangalore and plots has grown substantially in Bangalore. Unlike an apartment, owning a villa or a plot gives the buyer complete ownership of the land. Moreover layouts and plots give the owner the flexibility to construct customized homes. Owing to their growing popularity, developers are coming up with villas and layouts on the outskirts of the city where prices are comparatively low.
