The average size of an apartment in Bangalore is quite large by national standards at 1,753 square feet, while that of row-houses and villas were 2,831 and 3,545 square feet respectively. Koramangala is a saturated end user market with hardly any primary supply in the area. Majority of independent properties are dependent on secondary supply.
According to the Q1 2013 residential real estate market report, there is generally an oversupply of stock in the market. The report tracks around 470 projects in the categories of apartments, plots, villas, row-houses and villaments. It also shows a supply of approximately 1.3 lakh units across the city and its suburbs with 42 percent of unsold inventory as of Q4, 2012.
Koramangala luxury homes that comprises row houses and villas have witnessed 25 percent to 30 percent year on year appreciation and it is unlikely that the prices would come down.
Bangalore has grown in residential spaces in peripheral locations such as Hebbal and Yelahanka in North, Whitefield in East and Electronic City in South in last five years. Outer Ring Road and Sarjapur Road have witnessed heightened real estate activity due to high interest shown by builders.
Koramangala’s residential real estate demand is primarily driven by end-user segments, which reduces the volatility of the local market. Koramangala is already an established micro-market. The real estate market in Bangalore is really doing good as compared to other metropolitan cities.
There are lot of vacant plots available in Koramangala which can be used for real estate development activities and the property price is also expected to increase in the future. The high property price is not at all stopping home buyers from purchasing residential and commercial spaces in Bangalore.
Koramangala has developed as a premium residential market as the area is well connected and is also close to commercial hubs in Central, East and Southern Bangalore.
Koramangala, which is a prime location in Bangalore has sprung up as a lucrative realty option in the past few years. So if you are planning to buy or invest in a property, this is the right time to act.
