That could be the one reason for inventory pile up. Many flats have been under-construction for a long time, because there are not getting enough buyers at the moment as everyone is playing a wait-and-watch game.
Right Niyati, Everybody can not afford those apartments. There is limited market for these apartments. Only if you have a net worth of Rs 30-50 crore you can buy them.
Actually, the reason is very clear. Consumers in this category want the very best in quality and are unwilling to compromise. When they see quality, they are happy to pay. As per some developers, there is hardly any ready-to-move apartment available and this is the case with all developers. So where is the question over supply?
Yes, the Mumbai property markets has failed to benefit the luxury apartments priced above Rs. 5 crore. As per current datat, there are 6048 unsold luxury apartments in Mumbai, 3662 priced between Rs 5 crore and Rs 10 crore and 2386 above Rs 10 crore in Mumbai till September this year.
There is no doubt in it. The number of unsold luxury flats costing Rs 10 crore and above could cross 5000 units. As a number of projects by Lodha, Oberoi, Omkar, HBS Realtors, and others are underway in the Lower Parel-Worli area in South Central Mumbai. Property developers often pre-sell apartments at the launch before construction actually starts.
Hi Abhishek, But as per Lodha Developers, the company has sold Rs 1200 crore worth of units priced above Rs 10 crore in the first 8 months of this financial year. They expects the trend to continue. The company is developing luxury projects such as World Towers and Trump Towers in South Central Mumbai.
