I think the best option to invest in real estate will be on the eastern part of Bangalore. In the long run, East Bangalore will be a great choice considering the upcoming developments which are going to happen in these parts; the development activities will start with the expansion of Chennai-Bengaluru six-way expressway.

The area also hosts one among the posh locations in Bangalore... moderate traffic. You can visit this page for a much more detailed analysis....

Recently I heard that south Bangalore has become an attractive destination for senior citizens. Why so?

Yes you have heard it right. South Bangalore is again in the limelight, as it brings a host of affordable homes for senior citizens and retirees. For those in search of a green belt, broad road and uncongested locations within budget, localities in Bangalore south (such as Banashankari 6th stage) are the perfect take away.

I would say that it is a good idea to invest in West Bangalore, as the area is witnessing an influx of luxury residential units as large business houses are looking for luxury living. Developers are coming up with luxury options in this part of the city.
The area is a gateway to rapidly developing NICE corridor and places like Tumkur Road and Magadi Road could well become the next IT hub in Bangalore. Land availability and comparatively affordable price range implies that the western part will feature as a bright spot in Bangalore luxury real estate. The region also brings in hope of good returns for long term investors.

What are the infrastructural development happening in West Bangalore?

Infrastructure is the key that unlocked realty fortunes for West Bangalore. Broadening of state highway to Mysore was the first boost which was being followed by the Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises (NICE) corridor. NICE corridor improved connectivity with the far flung areas with the city. NICE has been formed by Kalyani Group of Companies and SAB International LTD with an objective to develop the Bangalore-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor.

What holds the highest possibility for realty development in the west is, however, the two Metro links. As per the proposed plans for Bangalore Metro, in Phase I, the metro will touch Vijayanagar and in Phase II, it will connect Kengeri. It means that in both Phases, metro will connect the western parts with northern and eastern parts of the city and travel time will drastically come down.

The Planned Peripheral Ring Road (PRR) will also enhance connectivity between West areas and other city parts. The PRR will connect Hosur Road up to Nelamangala.Moreover, development of integrated townships by Bangalore Metropolitan Region Development Authority (BMRDA) will include cluster towns located towards the western part of the city.

Is west Bangalore good for long term investment or short term investment?

The west Bangalore real estate market is booming and many recently launched projects have proven it. Large business houses in this region are also moving towards luxury housing. In times to come, the area is going to witness a lot of high end property developments. The locality promises to be a good bet for medium and long-term investors.

The western parts of Bangalore command prices in the mid-segment from Rs 3,800 to Rs 4,700 per sqft. The demand in this region is increasing mainly because of the connectivity with the Metro and developing infrastructure. Hence, it has the advantage on the capital value as connectivity improves the demand and developers in this region contribute to the supply.

Real estate in Bangalore had bloomed in south, east and south east parts of the city back in mid 1990s, due to the IT/ITeS development in the city. With the international airport being shifted to Devanahalli, north Bangalore has also seen boost in realty front. However, western part of the city has lagged behind to some extent in the realty race.

South Bangalore is the true calling for such investors, Bangalore South has been the roof over head for some of the primeval localities like- V V Puram, Basavanagudi, Chamarajpet and Jayanagar. In the last two years, a number of cosmopolitan centers have sprung up in South Bangalore, namely HSR layout, Koramangala, Sarjapur Road etc which boast of plush commercial and office layouts, high-rise apartments and a wide range of malls. Proximity to IT centers, state-of-the art infrastructure and easy connectivity to CBD have pushed the demand for high-end homes in South Bangalore.

If at all you are planning to invest in South Bangalore go either for Jayanagar or Koramangala. Jayanagar and Koramangala have emerged as the complete package for high-end residential destinations in Bangalore that includes proximity to CBD, good social infrastructure and central location. With the advent of IT and major companies, Koramangala has transformed itself into a premium residential address, adjacent to Sarjapur road. The rural areas of south Bangalore, such as Jigani and Bommanahalli also falls in the radar of the developers of high-end residential units. IT and the manufacturing segment in these regions is what drives the demand. In addition to it, south Bangalore is also in focus since because of the demand triggered by the NRI’s who wish to own high-end residence in south Bangalore. Such homes in south Bangalore fall under the price bracket Rs 600 Rs 15000 per sq ft.

What is the X factor for which the growth of real estate sector in West Bangalore is booming?

Shazad Laskar, Bangalore

18th December 2013

The factors that improved the growth of real estate sector in this area was the broadening of the State highway to Mysore, followed by the NICE corridor, which made the region easily accessible and drastically cut down the travelling time. The major locations in west Bangalore are Malleswaram, Vijaynagar, Tumkur road, Mysore road, Rajajinagar, Magadi Road, Dr. Rajkumar Road, Yeshwantpur and Uttarahalli. The region is expected to witness a huge uplift due to the two metro links. While Phase I metro will be touching Vijayanagar, in Phase II, the metro will connect Kengeri, thus connecting the region to the northern and eastern parts of the city.

It is better to go with South Bangalore. The residential activity in South Bangalore has climbed up few notches up in the few years due to integrated townships and big-scale residential units. Along with affordable housing segment options, this micro-market has also witnessed demand for residential units in luxury as well as mid-range category. This ranks it above all other regions in Bangalore.

How is the demand for budget housing in South Bangalore? Which are the good areas in South Bangalore to invest in?

Shazad Laskar, Bangalore

18th December 2013

As large IT/ITes establishments in South Bangalore are making their presence felt in Jigani and Electronic City. The demand for budget housing units in these belts have picked up significantly.

Gaining the spotlight in South Bangalore is Kanakapura Road that is labelled as a growing micro-market, thanks to its proximity to Electronic City and excellent infrastructure. Furthermore, market reports confirm that the region has a high absorption rate for Grade- A projects specifically.

Before, the western parts of Bangalore were noted for thickly populated residential layouts and industrial zones beyond. There was no development happening on the road to Mysore leading out of the city but today the belt is covered with innumerable realty developments with a spot of vacant land in sight. Investing in Bangalore West is a good idea.
