Realty prices in Mumbai may fall by up to 15%
Property prices in Mumbai is likely to fall by 10-15% over the next six to nine months on the back of lacklusture sales.
���These will definitely have a negative impact on the property prices in Mumbai and other cities in the country. In my view, the price will go down by 10-15% over the next six to nine months,��� said kIndiareit Fund Advisors MD Ramesh Jogani. On the positive side, it shows that markets are maturing and the fall in price will again bring resurgence in customer demand, he added.
Indiareit Fund Advisors manages a total of $450 million domestic and offshore funds. His views were echoed by leading real estate firm Orbit Corporation MD Pujit Agarwal as he said that there is a total slowdown in the property market at the moment.
���For the last six months sales were lacklusture. The demand for property will not go up until general election scheduled for next year,��� Agarwal said. High inflation, increase in cost of capital and widening trade deficit have led to the fall in the stock market, he said adding that real estate market of Mumbai has a significant co-relation with the stock market.
