Top 8 cities see 5% drop in sales, 25% fall in new launches: Proptiger report

The number of new residential units launched in the top 8 markets decreased from 1,23,080 units in Q3 2023 to 91,863 units in Q3 2024, the report said.

October 9th, 2024: India’s leading eight residential markets experienced a year-on-year decline in both housing sales and new launches during the July-September quarter of 2024, as revealed in the latest ‘Real Insight Residential Report’ by PropTiger.com, part of REA India, which also owns Housing.com. A sharp increase in home prices—averaging a nearly 20% increase across the top eight cities—impacted affordability leading to a 5% YoY drop in overall sales. New launches witnessed a more significant 25% YoY decrease compared to the same quarter in 2023.

Key findings:

  • Sales: A total of 96,544 units were sold in Q3 2024, down from 1,01,221 units sold during the same period in 2023, reflecting a 5% annual decline
  • New Launches: The number of new residential units launched in the top 8 markets decreased from 1,23,080 units in Q3 2023 to 91,863 units in Q3 2024, marking a significant 25% drop.

Vikas Wadhawan, CFO of REA India and business head of PropTiger.com, commented, “The year-on-year decline in both sales and new launches reflects the market’s response to rising prices. While the demand and supply for homes moderated during the April-June period due to the General Elections and a temporary slowdown in the approval process during July-August, consumer sentiment remains positive. This is driven by strong market fundamentals, which continue to encourage real estate as a preferred investment avenue.”

He further added, “We are observing a healthy moderation in market activity, which is beneficial for end-users as it brings about sustainable growth. Over the last few quarters, prices have increased by 3% to as much as 50% in some prime localities of key markets, affecting immediate buying decisions. However, we expect buyers to gradually adjust to the new price realities. With the festive season kicking off with Navratri, renewed buyer interest and a spike in sales activity are anticipated. The market frenzy has slowed, creating a more stable environment for end-users. Developers, particularly in Hyderabad and Pune, have also recalibrated their supply strategies to align with shifting demand patterns, while Delhi NCR continues to display robust momentum in both sales and launches. The festive season is expected to bring fresh energy as developers introduce attractive offers, revitalising the market despite recent challenges.”

 

Major drops in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Pune

In the July-September quarter of 2024, Delhi NCR saw a significant sales surge of 29% year-on-year (YoY), with 10,098 units sold compared to 7,800 in the same period last year. Mumbai, while leading in overall volume, experienced a slight 1% dip, selling 30,010 units versus 30,299 in Q3 2023. Hyderabad faced a notable decline, with sales dropping 19% YoY to 11,564 units from 14,191 units. Bengaluru’s sales decreased by 11% YoY, with 11,160 units sold, down from 12,588 units in the same period last year.

September 30, 2024: The Indian residential real estate market has hit a historic milestone, with inventory overhang (the estimated time required to sell off unsold stock based on sales velocity) dropping to 22 months in the June quarter, down from 34 months in the corresponding quarter last year. This decline underscores robust demand across the sector. Notably, the inventory overhang varies significantly across regions, with Delhi-NCR recording the highest at 31 months and Kolkata the lowest at 16 months. 

In its quarterly report titled ‘Real Insight Residential – April-June 2024’, the Gurugram-headquartered firm highlighted significant improvements in key regions, with NCR’s Gurugram witnessing a substantial decline in inventory overhang from 72 months in Q2 2023 to 31 months in Q2 2024. Ahmedabad also showed strong performance, reducing its inventory overhang from 33 months to 18 months during the same period, reflecting the healthy demand dynamics in these markets.

Regarding unsold inventory, the report noted that despite a moderation in supply and absorption rates, India’s residential real estate market displayed resilience, achieving a 2% year-on-year decline, bringing the total to over 9.26 lakh units as of June 30. This reduction underscores the market’s capacity to adapt to evolving conditions, maintaining overall stability and indicating sustained buyer interest across various regions.

Vikas Wadhawan, Group CFO-REA India & business head, PropTiger.com, said, “The significant reduction in inventory overhang to 22 months from 34 months year-on-year reflects strong and sustained demand in India’s residential real estate market. Cities like Gurugram and Ahmedabad have shown remarkable progress, with NCR – Gurugram overhang dropping from 72 months in Q2 2023 to 31 months in Q2 2024, and Ahmedabad’s from 33 months to 18 months over the same period. This trend, combined with a 2% annual decline in unsold inventory to around 9.26 lakh units, underscores the market’s resilience and effective adjustment to evolving conditions. As we approach the festive season, we anticipate this positive momentum will continue to gain strength, further boosting market activity and buyer engagement across the country.”

Unsold inventory

Ahmedabad led the way in reduction in unsold inventory with the highest reduction, cutting over 12,500 units, followed by the NCR region, which saw a decrease of over 9,400 units. These reductions reflect healthy demand and a positive market outlook in these key cities, indicating that the market is effectively absorbing the available stock.

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and Pune — the two most important real estate markets in Maharashtra — accounted for 54 per cent of the total unsold inventory across top 8 cities at the end of the latest June quarter. The MMR and Pune markets have comparatively high unsold stock because of an increase in the number of new launches by developers as a response to strong consumer demand. In MMR, the unsold housing stock rose 1 per cent to 3,39,362 units in April-June 2024 from 3,35,476 units in the corresponding period of the previous year.

First-Time Renter? Here’s How To Appear Financially Stable

Being a first-time tenant could be a challenging. Many landlords prefer tenants with a rental history that they could refer to and know their previous records of paying rent. These records help them know how much rent you have paid in the past and have you been regular with the payments.

So, how can you, as a first-time renter with no rental history, convince the landlord to take you as a tenant? There are certain ways to achieve this. Just do some prep work before you begin.

Here are some tips for you:

  • To begin with, have a source of continuous monthly income so that a percentage of it could be given out as rent. A stable income will ensure your landlord that you pay the rent timely.
  • With a stable income, your annual tax return receipts of past three years can prove to be a strong income history. It also shows your credibility when it comes to paying taxes.
  • You could arrange for a letter of verification from the organisation you are working with. The letter could hold your personal details and also, the duration you have been working with the organisation. It could also include your current income as a proof.
  • Have a stable bank account? A bank statement could help, too, showing the financial health of your account. Savings if any could be an added advantage.
  • You could give in writing that why you do not have a rental history yet.
  • Personal references, including people you know and who live in the city you are moving to, including, colleagues, relatives or friends could be of help. These references could vouch on your day-to-day behaviour and ensure that you will be a responsible tenant.
  • Can someone co-sign the lease with you? For instance, your parent, a guardian in the city, among others can be a credible source for the landlord as he would know whom to go to in case you default.
  • If your financial condition allows, you could offer a two- or three-month rent in advance. This would give the landlord a fair sense of your financial stability and that you are here to stay.

Can Your Neighbour Derail Your Home-Selling Plans?

Ages might have passed since the wise men first preached fellow humans to “love thy neighbour”, but the wisdom they imparted holds as much water today as it might have done in the past, the isolated lives we live in modern times notwithstanding. If you gave the idea a second thought, you might quickly realise that keeping your neighbour in good humour is in the face more important today than it ever was! Who would want to come home after a tough day at work and argue with their neighbour about parking issues? (The housing society might have allotted specific spaces to both of you, but your unruly neighbour likes to get in your way somehow.)

Equally painful would be the exercise to regularly tell your neighbour to mind their pets. (This person might be in the habit of letting loose.) Your anxiety would only increase if you are trying really hard to catch some sleep because you have an early morning meeting the next day while your next-door neighbour is partying hard, and is generous enough to let you hear it. (So hard is the sound vibe that you could feel your walls vibrating and thumping!)

Of course, you could go and complain about such unruly neighbours to the residents’ welfare association, but doing so often would mean you are not ready to “make adjustments” while you have opted for “community living”. More than often, the family you complain against might go for retaliatory action, too, irritating you in little ways.

Not only can a bad neighbour make your life living hell during your stay at a place, they could make it equally difficult to sell your house if they make up their mind to do so.  While prospective buyers make a visit, they would do everything in their capacity to make the area look as clumsy and untidy as possible. They could so far as to try to get in touch with buyers and share “insights” that might totally derail your plans.  If buyers sense some sort of discomfiture between you and your neighbour, they would like to avoid purchasing your property to escape future conflict.

In both the cases, talking it out – rather than complaining or going for retaliatory action – is your best shot at restoring normalcy. Invite them over a cup of tea and let them know about your struggle for parking only because this neighbour did not apply the little courtesy of parked their vehicle systematically. You could also let them know in a similar fashion how you don’t really appreciate their pets being let loose on your property where they can freely litter.

Complaining to the authorities should ideally be used as your last resort.

When your neighbour tries to thwart your plans of finding a buyer who is willing to pay you as much money as you are asking for, they are also doing themselves harm, often without realising it. In case you are in a hurry to sell off a property owing to neighbourly troubles and end you selling it for less than its market value, they stand to lose, too. Depreciation in the value of your property signifies depreciation in the value of your neighbour’s property, too. Try to put this point across, in those many words, again over tea amid other members of the housing society. In this case, too, approach the RWA only after trying your disaster-solving negotiation skills.
