"The Hyderabad residential market displayed a promising start to 2024, characterised by a stable property registration momentum and a notable uptick in demand for high-quality homes in January," said Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India.
This is reflected not just in the growth in price level but also the aspirational drive of homebuyers towards upgrading to higher value properties, he said.
"Developers, too, are actively keeping pace with these trends, demonstrating adaptability to meet the evolving preferences of discerning buyers," Baijal said.
