Q: Hi, I have saved up quite some money and want to invest in residential properties. But I’m confused because of the multiple types of properties available these days in Hyderabad. Can anyone give me suggestions about what kind of properties should I invest in? And what is trending these days?
I agree with what you said about the advantage that comes with purchasing villas, but when it comes to investment in premium areas in Hyderabad, I think investing in apartments would be more beneficial. If you perform a research of the properties in Hyderabad, you would see that most of the villa projects are situated in secluded areas, and the ones that are in prime locations are very expensive. If your budget is restricted, you should definitely look for investing in apartments at gated communities. They come with the advantage of hassle free living, great social life and interaction, availability of amenities within the community, and most importantly can fetch you easy rents in future.
Hey! I have been where you are now. When I was planning on investing, I was going through the same dilemma. The kind of properties trending these days are mostly integrated townships both apartments and villas. People prefer to invest in these properties because these are more reliable than purchasing individual houses from random dealers and builders. I understand that your confusion will mainly lie between villas and apartments. I personally believe getting villas is more beneficial mainly because it secures a land for you and not just a house. In Hyderabad, the construction of villas is catching up very quickly. Some great projects are coming up in bustling areas like Hitec city, Gachibowli, Miyapur, Kukatpally, and also in the outskirts, which are very cheap at the moment.
This kind of confusion is very normal. We are spoilt for choices these days when it comes to investing in property. Both renowned and budding builders are coming up with great projects in the form of integrated townships, mid-size gated communities, multi-story apartments, row houses, villas, and duplexes. Now, the decision to invest would solely depend on your budget and requirement. If you are looking for a hassle free life and want all amenities under one roof then integrated townships comprising of apartments and villas would be the best option, and are likely to reap more future benefits, given the growing demand for these properties.
