Pros: An old and well-established area with all social amenities, commercial establishments and a good civic infrastructure. An area with good connectivity and accessibility. Very low crime rate. The upcoming metro line will improve connectivity and accessibility.
Cons: Very little scope for investment growth due to lack of space and high property prices.
The price trends in this locality ranges from Rs 7000 sqft to Rs 9500 sqft. The area has seen approximately 22% appreciation in the sale price.
Fast growth in commercial and business establishments in the area have boosted property values in the past decade. Some of the important sub-areas that witness some development include Gandhi Bazaar, N.R. Colony, Bull Temple Road and Tata Silk Farm. Nearby Binnipet (6 km away) and Padmanabhanagar are witnessing good growth in terms of realty.
I agree that Basavanagudi is an old locality as well as a saturated area in terms of realty development. Continuous growth in commercial establishments have boosted property values in recent times. The upcoming metro line on K.R Road can further boost realty values due to faster connectivity.
Basavanagudi has seen an upward trend of developers constructing apartment complexes in medium and small BDA plots. It falls under BDA limit, hence the area have well planned and broad roads. The City Central Library is also located near the area.
Most of the projects in Basavanagudi are ready to move and I do not think there is much ongoing or upcoming project in this locality because of to lack of space for new realty development.
Tirumala Bala Pinnacle is one of the ongoing project in this locality which is expected to be completed by 2016. The project offers 3 bhk apartments and the price of the apartment ranges from Rs 1.20 crores to Rs 1.54 crores
