Over 26,000 Properties Registered Between January-April in Hyderabad: Knight Frank India Analysis

The residential real estate market in Hyderabad is currently witnessing a remarkable surge, with property registrations experiencing a significant uptick during the first four months of 2024 compared to the same period last year. This surge reflects the city's robust market dynamics and shifting consumer preferences, driven by an increasing demand for larger homes and properties with higher values. In this comprehensive analysis, by Knight Frank India, we delve into the factors fueling this remarkable growth, examine the implications for Hyderabad's real estate landscape, and explore strategies for stakeholders to capitalize on emerging opportunities. 

Understanding the Surge in Registrations and Property Values 

Hyderabad witnessed an impressive 15% year-on-year increase in property registrations from January to April 2024, totaling an unprecedented 26,027 units. Simultaneously, the cumulative value of these registrations surged by an impressive 40% year-on-year, reaching a substantial Rs 16,190 crore. This surge underscores the resilience and attractiveness of Hyderabad's real estate market, positioning it as a lucrative investment destination for both homebuyers and investors. 

Driving Factors: High-Value Homes Propel Market Momentum

A key driver behind this surge in property registrations is the escalating demand for high-value properties. Homes priced above Rs one crore witnessed a remarkable 92% year-on-year increase in registrations, reflecting the growing affluence and purchasing power of Hyderabad's residents. Additionally, mid-range properties priced between Rs 50 lakh and Rs one crore experienced a healthy growth of 47% year-on-year, indicating a broad-based expansion across different price segments. This trend highlights the diverse range of options available to homebuyers and the city's evolving real estate landscape. 

Shifting Preferences: Embracing Spacious Living 

An intriguing trend observed in the report is the shifting preferences of buyers towards larger living spaces. In April 2024, a significant 70% of registered properties fell within the 1,000 to 2,000 square foot range, signaling a growing preference for spacious homes with ample living space. This contrasts with a decline in demand for smaller properties below 1,000 sqft, which saw registrations drop to 16% in April 2024 from 20% in the same month last year. Conversely, registrations for larger properties exceeding 2,000 sqft witnessed an uptick, rising to 15% in April 2024 from 10% in April 2023. This shift underscores the evolving needs and aspirations of homebuyers in Hyderabad's dynamic real estate market.
