A recent report by commercial real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield projects that Hyderabad’s gross leasing volume (GLV) for the first half of 2024 (H1 2024) will reach an impressive 5 million square feet (msf). This marks a nearly 40% increase compared to the 3.6 msf recorded in H1 2023.
Jump in Residential Prices
According to a report by real estate services company ANAROCK, Hyderabad also saw a 39% year-on-year increase in average residential prices, the highest among the top seven cities in India, which recorded average price rises between 13% and 39%.
In the second quarter of 2024, residential prices in the top cities increased by 4% to 10% compared to the first quarter. However, despite the price increase, sales declined from 19,660 units in Q1 2024 to 15,085 units in Q2 2024.
Reddy also hinted at the development of several new projects in Shadnagar and surrounding areas, further contributing to the region’s growth.
