Banglore, Mumbai, Delhi real estate rankings nosedive
Uncertainties prevailing in the real estate market since the past few years have resulted in the country no longer being an attractive investment destination for international investors, says a recent survey.
Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi, which are the top three realty markets in the country, have sharply slipped to 19th, 20th and 21st positions respectively in the list of 22 investment destinations in the Asia Pacific region, the survey 'Emerging trends in real estate 2013' by the Urban Land Institute and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) said.
In 2012, these three cities were placed at the 10th, 15th and 12th position respectively in this study.
"The uncertainties in the real estate market is holding back international investors from investing in the country as they were doing in the last few years. Given the current scenario, where there is little or no clarity on policies, foreign investors will continue to adopt a cautious approach," PwC India executive director Gautam Mehra told reproters while releasing the report here.
According to the survey, Bangalore is perceived to be a mature market and has demonstrated fairly stable prices and reasonable absorption trends.
However, the report notes that the Southern metro's over-reliance on the sluggish global IT industry translates into low growth potential in the medium term.
The financial capital Mumbai is plagued with over- supply across asset classes, resulting in record levels of vacancy and stagnant yields, it says.
The report, however, has cast a positive light on Delhi and the surrounding NCR area in view of the expected master development plans for Delhi,
