The CBRE ‘India Market Monitor Q4 2024’ report highlights that the city contributed a notable share to the 63% of residential unit launches driven collectively by Mumbai, Pune, and Hyderabad. This places Hyderabad firmly among the nation’s top metropolitan hubs, shaping housing market trends and driving real estate activity.
Hyderabad’s residential market experienced robust year-on-year growth, mirroring the national momentum that saw sales exceed 302,900 units for the second consecutive year. New residential launches reached over 280,000 units in 2024, with Hyderabad contributing 13% in Q4 alone, reflecting a 10% quarter-on-quarter increase.
Sales and capital values also exhibited positive movement. Hyderabad recorded a steady rise in demand across mid-end, high-end, and luxury housing segments, collectively accounting for the majority of sales. Properties priced between ?2 crore and ?4 crore, and above ?4 crore, witnessed heightened demand, signaling a shift toward premium and luxury offerings.
The city’s IT-driven economic landscape, improved infrastructure, and favourable policies have played a pivotal role in attracting both domestic and international buyers.
Demand for Spacious and Premium Living
Hyderabad’s housing trends show a clear preference for spacious, high-quality residences. The mid-end housing category dominated sales with a 40% share in 2024, while the luxury segment also recorded substantial growth, with a 9% share in Q4. The festive season in late 2024 further boosted sales, reinforcing Hyderabad's role as a critical market for real estate developers and investors.
