Telangana Budget 2023- A Boost to Real Estate Across the State!

The Finance Minister of Telangana State, T Harish Rao, presented the annual budget for the fiscal year 2023-24 in the state assembly this month. The budget presented of INR 2 90,396 crore for the year consists of total revenue expenditure of INR 2 11,685 crore and a capital expenditure of INR 37,525 crore.

The budget focused on public welfare and infrastructure in the state. The Finance Minister introduced a robust budget with specific allocations to infrastructure development and has earmarked Rs 11,372 crore to the Municipal Administration & Urban Development (MA & UD) Department. A part of the budget is also allocated for the development of Infrastructure and Traffic Flow in Hyderabad.

Real estate experts anticipate that this emphasis on infrastructure development and public welfare will pave the way for the growth of the housing sector in tier-2 and tier-3 cities of the state.

The problem of traffic congestion is quite prevalent in the state. The state government has announced several SRDP Projects to address it, including developing flyovers, underpasses, foot-over bridges, and road-over bridges.

One of the major focus areas of the state budget was to curb unemployment in the state. It has proposed the development of various industries, including the food processing industry, and the development of IT Infrastructure in the state. It has also allocated INR 4,037 crore for the industries department, creating a conducive business environment to attract investments.

Infra development and employment generation increase the financial potential of the population. This additional capital may be invested by people in the housing sector and will directly impact the demand for real estate in the state.

Industry experts point out that Hyderabad has developed mainly because of its well-connected roads and infrastructure. With a boost in infrastructure, the state will witness the growth of tier-2 and tier-3 cities in the long run. The proposed industrial corridors in the state will all develop along the National Highways. This will further boost the development of residential clusters across the state.

The Finance Minister has also allocated INR 7,890 crore to construct double-bedroom houses for the poor. These homes will benefit over 2.5 lakh eligible persons in the state, thereby boosting the housing sector.

The state budget for 2023-24 and its allocations are a positive boost to the real estate and construction industry. No doubt, it will have a long-standing impact on the sector.

PLOTS vs. FLATS What do consumers prefer?

A property purchase is one of the most significant investments you make in your lifetime. It is a long-term financial commitment and considerably impacts your finances. Not forgetting that we are all at different stages of our investing journey. Some of us are first-time homeowners, some others are looking for a second home, and others an investment that helps earn additional income.

But whether you are a first-timer or a returning buyer, there’s one dilemma we all have- to buy a plot or a flat – which is the better investment?

Market studies point out that more than 50% of home buyers prefer new, ready-to-move houses in Hyderabad. However, there’s also an equal percentage of buyers who look for plots and other older properties.

A few critical factors need to be considered before you choose between the two – easy financing, high returns, tax benefits, etc. 

Let’s take a look at the Pros and cons of flats and plots based on a few pivotal parameters.

  1. Flexibility:

Plots offer a lot more flexibility when compared to flats. They allow you to build your dream house according to your preferences and taste. However, in the case of flats, you have no say in deciding the structure of the house.

  • Appreciation rate of property:

Returns on your investment are higher in the case of open plots. Plots appreciate faster than apartments. This is mainly because plots are less in supply in the market.

Flats are also prone to deteriorate over time, which in turn, is likely to result in a decrease in their values. Land is an appreciating asset; hence, you’ll always get a better plot return.

  • Financial assistance:

The Loan-to-Value (LTV), compared to flats, is less for plots in Indian cities. While the Loan-to-Value (LTV) is 80-85% for flats, for plots, only 80% Loan-to-Value (LTV) is allowed. In the case of resale land, this Loan-to-Value (LTV) is only 50%. Also, you can only get a loan for buying a residential plot if the local authority has approved the land.

Hence, arranging funds and capital for open plots is a bit more hassle. On the hand, financial assistance is easily available for purchasing flats, and smoother.

  • Delivery:

Unless you are buying a pre-owned flat, possession of an apartment may require months or even years. Plots are usually ready for possession. If you’re buying a plot in a township, you are likely to get possession of the plot earlier than a flat. This allows you to customise and build your home as and when you want.

To conclude, both plots and flats have their fair share of pros and cons. What to invest in depends on what fits your budget, your financial abilities and liabilities, and your family’s needs. If you are merely looking for an investment for your funds, a plot, however, sounds like a better deal. Investing in a plot in a location that has proposed development and will see appreciation in the future would be a good idea.

At TMR Group, our plots are located at the epicentres for development for thriving returns. TMR Green Meadows at Chegunta, just 30 min away from Medchal, is a plotted community spread over 50 acres for an investment that grows along with you. To know more, visit https://tmrinfra.com/

Hyderabad’s real estate continues to make rapid strides and is expanding rapidly across the state without showing signs of a slowdown or fatigue. It exhibits an uncanny resilience and remains unperturbed by impacting factors, including the worldwide economic slowdown.

New areas along the suburbs and beyond have come up owing to state policies and infrastructure development. The city’s peripheries have been stretched with more promise for development. Keeping up with this positive vibe of Hyderabad’s residential market, prospective property seekers are actively expressing interest not only in the developed property zones and the city’s central districts but also in the new and emerging ones.

The west and north zones have undisputedly led the momentum of the city realty’s success story. Their growth has attracted local property buyers and investors from across the country. These are also the preferred localities by the NRI community from Telangana and other southern states. Simultaneously, localites and migrants working in IT and Pharma continue to explore the option of investing and acquiring property in western and northern Hyderabad.

The vicinities of the north and west Hyderabad are adding more momentum to the core city. Locations like Tellapur, Medchal, and others which were little known till a few years back, are now bustling with residential real estate.

According to yearly industry reports, Hyderabad’s residential market continued with its momentum of strong sales, which started towards the end of 2021. In the year 2022, the city recorded a 28% year-on-year growth. The housing sales in 2022 accounted for 31,046 units. This figure, reports highlight, is the highest sales recorded in the city since 2011.

There was also a substantial rise in new launches, with the addition of 43,847 new units in 2022. Capitalising on this shift in home-buyers sentiments, developers also launched a steady number of new projects in the city during the year.

The ticket size segment of Rs 1 crore and above also gained traction. The need to upgrade the homes to meet the growing requirements of space has resulted in a substantial demand for ticket sizes higher than Rs 50 lakh.

Despite significant obstacles, including geopolitical developments, an increase in house mortgage rates, and other factors, the city’s residential sector has witnessed a rise. The demand for higher-value properties is still strong, thus preserving the market’s upbeat outlook.

Hyderabad welcomes the New Year on a cheerful note!

2022 has been a phenomenal year for residential real estate. Industry research attests that despite the headwinds of rising property prices, interest rate hikes, and geopolitical tensions, housing sales in the top seven cities of India crossed their previous highs of 2014.

Market research studies state that approximately 3 64,900 residential units were sold in the top seven cities in 2022. This is against the 2, 36,500 units sold in 2021. With these figures, the sector recorded a 54% year-on-year increase. Interestingly, the last time such peak figures were recorded was in 2014, when 3.43 lakh units were sold.

Mumbai Metropolitan Region witnessed the highest sales of about 1, 09,700 units in the seven cities studied in 2022. The financial capital was followed by NCR, with approximately 63,700 units. Hyderabad, on the other hand, saw the sale of 47,487 residential units.

In terms of new launches, the top cities saw a 51% annual rise. The numbers rose from 2, 36,700 units in 2021 to nearly 3, 57,600 new units in 2022. Hyderabad saw the second-highest launch figures, with 68,000 units launched in 2022 compared to 51,500 units in 2021. The city of pearls was only second to Mumbai Metropolitan Region, which recorded 1, 24,650 new launches in 2022. Both the cities together accounted for 54% share of all the residential launches in the year.

Market experts anticipate the current sales momentum in the housing sector to continue in the first quarter of 2023. Experts mention that the appetite for homeownership has remained undeterred, and maximum sales are being driven by the end users. However, a lot of stakes will also depend on how the home loan interest rates pan out over the next year.

Industry experts also believe that ready-to-move-in units will continue to top the buyer demand. The demand for new launches will also gain momentum in the year ahead. The large and listed developers will continue to dominate the market. Buyers have a certain level of faith and confidence when it comes to top builders and developers; hence, they will continue to perform well and see significant sales in 2023.

Despite the affordability level of buying housing properties witnessing a decline last year across seven major cities due to the rise in mortgage and property rates, Hyderabad remains one of the most affordable residential markets. A stable employment market in the city, longer loan tenures, and supportive government policies have been instrumental.

2022 was a phenomenal year for the real estate sector in Hyderabad and other cities of the country, particularly for the residential segment. There was robust housing demand, mainly from end-users, in not just the top cities but also across tier 2 and tier 3 cities.

Affordable housing, ever-growing job opportunities, infrastructural advancement, superior standards of living, and excellent connectivity, make Hyderabad the hub of development.

Turnaround in Hyderabad’s Real Estate!

Hyderabad – India’s Pearl City, has become one of the most popular investments and property-buying/renting destinations today. The real estate market in Hyderabad is robust and clocked a 32% growth in sales in the third quarter of 2022 and a 19% growth in new projects. Additionally, it is also one of the most sought-after office destinations in the country, and as of September 2022, over 104 million sq.ft of office stock was available in the city. Let us understand this turnaround in Hyderabad’s real estate market in detail!

A report by a leading real estate market researcher has highlighted that the strong momentum in demand has generated an uptick in the supply of new residential projects in the city. Around 11,000 housing units were launched, which in turn registered 19% YoY growth during the quarter. Hyderabad also witnessed a healthy surge in price growth, with aggregate residential value moving up by 6% YoY during Q3 of 2022.

Simultaneously, Hyderabad witnessed office space transactions of eight lakh square feet in the commercial market during Quarter 3 of 2022. The report states that the city witnessed new office completions of 33 lakh square feet during the quarter. At an average rent increase of 7% YoY, Hyderabad recorded the third-highest 12 months office rental value growth across the eight leading cities of India during Q3 of 2022.

With a booming real estate market, the peripheries of the city centre have now expanded. Also, new urban projects in the city’s eastern part have contributed to the increase in the real estate market. The growth of Hyderabad as a major employment hub has, no doubt, fuelled this growth.

The IT industry in Hyderabad is one of the most significant global IT/ITES presence. Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and other giants, along with a number of unicorns and start-ups, all call this city their base. With Hyderabad Pharma City in the pipeline, it has grown into a major pharmaceutical and biotechnology powerhouse in India.

The report highlights the Telangana government’s policies have a big impact on real estate in Telangana and the trends across all real estate segments in the state. Various policies of the State government have led to a remarkable turnaround in Hyderabad’s real estate growth over the last few years, apart from aiding in the overall development of the State.

Experts say that this business environment, led by a stable political dispensation, focused policy initiatives, widening infrastructure bases, positive stakeholder sentiments, and availability of a large talent pool is expected to continue to improve in the State.

The boost in real estate is expected to trigger ‘return to office’ sentiments as the effects of the pandemic lessen in the coming years. As such, high-quality institutional supply in the IT corridors would also boost the creation of smarter developments in the city as well as encourage the launch of new projects. Delivery timelines, however, may get impacted as mid and high-end properties will continue to drive the demand is what experts predict for the upcoming year.

Telangana currently accounts for 5% of India’s GDP. The adoption of global and domestic business-focused policies almost immediately after the State’s formation in 2014 has given the state’s economy a boost. Hyderabad continues to rank high on the global standards of living parameters and is the best city to live in India, beating Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, or Chennai.

With unlimited job opportunities and infrastructural advancement, Hyderabad is experiencing a boom and will be the hub of development in the coming years. With TMR Group, invest in plots in the hotspots of growth around Hyderabad today for a flourishing future. Visit https://tmrinfra.com/ today to know more!
