Ghaziabad's Real Estate Market: A Rising Star for Luxury Buyers
Ghaziabad's Luxury Real Estate Boom
The luxury real estate sector in India is experiencing a surge in interest, driven by increasing buyer aspirations, robust infrastructure development, and heightened investor confidence. According to a recent analysis, the National Capital Region (NCR) has seen a staggering 137% rise in the costs of new residential projects, largely due to escalating land and construction expenses. Ghaziabad, in particular, has recorded a remarkable 139% increase in property prices from 2019 to September 2024, coupled with a 14% growth in new housing supply.
Factors such as enhanced connectivity and infrastructure advancements are pivotal to Ghaziabad's growth. Key projects like the Delhi-Meerut Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, and the forthcoming FNG Expressway are significantly cutting down travel times and improving intercity connectivity. These developments are positioning Ghaziabad as a forward-thinking city that appeals to homebuyers and investors looking for growth opportunities.
Sanjay Sharma, Director of SKA Group, emphasizes, “Ghaziabad is at the forefront of luxury housing in NCR. Its superior connectivity, well-structured infrastructure, and affordable options have provided homebuyers with properties that align with their lifestyle aspirations. The city’s property prices have surged from Rs 3,691 per sq. ft. in 2019 to Rs 8,823 per sq. ft. in 2024, attracting individuals in search of a luxurious living experience. This price surge reflects the booming market in the region. We believe that with the ongoing development and the rise of luxury projects, Ghaziabad will remain a strong player in the real estate sector.”
Additionally, micro-markets such as Raj Nagar Extension, Siddharth Vihar, Indirapuram, and Wave City are witnessing a wave of premium launches, plotted developments, and expansive integrated townships. The high demand for prime locations and the increasing preference for modern living spaces are drawing developers to these areas. Furthermore, civic enhancements and evolving lifestyle infrastructure are establishing new urban frontiers that are propelling Ghaziabad's real estate growth.
