The real estate sector had a fantastic run post the pandemic era. The low-interest rate regime gave a much-needed fillip to the sector keeping the sales at their peak. But now with the exhaustion in pent-up demand, the relentless hike in interest rates and the increasing property prices are softening the demand to a certain extent. The recent pause in the repo rate hike by RBI has been a breather for the housing sector which is now looking forward to the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya to keep the sales momentum going.
Pritam Chivukula – Vice President, CREDAI-MCHI and Co-Founder & Director, Tridhaatu Realty said, “Akshaya Tritiya is one of the holiest and auspicious days celebrated by the Hindus across the country. As per common belief, buying gold and properties on this day brings prosperity and wealth in the future. Therefore it plays a vital role in the real estate industry as we can witness a certain spike in sales. Developers too come out with various offers that encourage homebuyers to fulfil their dream of buying a home. We are optimistic that the recent unchanged repo rate will improve the market sentiments and this auspicious occasion will give a much-needed positivity that the real estate sector needs.”
Here are a few Akshaya Tritiya offers and comments from the developers:
