A press release from the global property consultancy, the report presents a comprehensive analysis of the residential and office market performance across eight cities for the period January June 2019.
Both in terms of new office space completions and transactions, H1 2019 has been one of the best periods that the city has ever witnessed with 129 per cent increase in the number of new office space completions to 3.7 lakh sq m (39.7 lakh sq ft) from 1.6 lakh sq m (17.3 lakh sq ft) in H1 2018, the report said.
Sales peaked in H1 2019 in housing projects that neared completion. The demand fundamentals in the market continued to be strong which is reflected in a massive 67 per cent decline in unsold inventory, director (Hyderabad branch) of Knight Frank India Samson Arthur said
From the supply standpoint, while there was a YoY rise in new unit launches, there was a definite deficit, mostly due to backlog of statutory and regulatory clearances, he said.
