Chennai bears a New Face. Luxury Realty has come of age in Residential and Commercial Landscapes

Luxurious residential apartments in OMR Chennai are no longer an alien concept. Chennai has transformed and expanded so as to incorporate several other suburban markets within its landscape. The suburban markets are interestingly observing real estate demand as much as the Central Business District. When there is such high demand, the landscape in these regions is abundant with luxurious apartments and villas that are rapidly filling up. OMR is the city’s famous IT corridor. Rapid advent of numerous international IT and ITES organizations accelerated housing demand in the city. Since the IT corridor employs a large number of top management professionals that seek luxury homes in the vicinity of their workplace, several builders are engaged in the construction of premium luxurious apartments and villas in places like OMR and ECR.

Why OMR is a preferred Real Estate Destination

Besides the establishment of IT parks, OMR is also connected to many other important places of Chennai. The scenic coastline and the more serene and less polluted ambience have increased the appeal of the region tremendously. At the moment, residential activity on this road is largely seen until Kovalam but in the years to come, a lot more real estate development can be observed even beyond Kovalam. Therefore, those who work in OMR, ECR and other adjoining neighborhoods or even in the prime areas of Chennai like Thiruvanmiyur, Besant Nagar and Adyar find staying at OMR a more desired choice. 

  1. OMR has homes with large spaces and ability to expand further. Villas, integrated townships, farmhouses and sprawling apartments can be seen only in these suburban markets.
  2. Luxurious residential apartments in OMR, Chennai are not just a class apart but are also more affordable than the real estate market in the Central Business District (CBD) of the city.
  3. Properties in this region observe an overall lower cost when compared to the CBD. Lower prices are because of easy availability of land at lower rates. 
  4. Capital appreciation is expected to be exponential since the scope of development is bigger.
  5. Saturation will naturally take longer since these are the newly developed areas unlike the CBD.
  6. It is closest to the IT corridor and other industrial parks of the city.
  7. Great connectivity and exceptional infrastructural development facilitate easy access to all important parts of the city.

Apartments vs. Independent Homes. Reasons Supporting the Choice of Investors

Flats for sale in Chennai and especially luxury apartments in Chennai is a trend that is only expected to grow with time. Villa projects, luxury apartments, contemporary farmhouses and modern studio flats are all doing independently well with real estate investors of all kinds. However, the primary preference of residents and migrants of the city continues to be apartments. There are important reasons that support the strong preference. 



Price

Flats for sale in Chennai owing to the space consumed and the number of units constructed contribute to relatively lower costs in comparison with independent homes or villas. Although there are many factors that determine the choice of home to be purchased, price most certainly is a numero uno factor.

Amenities

Apartments anywhere have a lot more amenities than an independent home. Beginning from children’s play area, swimming pool and fitness center to tennis courts and more elaborate facilities like in-house medical centers and play schools; these are options that are exclusive to modern apartments. The modern investor seeks such comforts of life.

Safety

An apartment complex is home to several homes that are located next to each other. Most flats and all luxury apartments in Chennai have dedicated security staff that are usually absent in independent homes. Safety is of paramount importance today and hence apartments are relatively safer havens of living.

                              

Community living, uncompromisable quality of construction and higher rental prospects are other reasons that support the choice of buying flats for sale in Chennai.

Properties to Rent in Chennai. How are they influencing the Realty Market?

Availability of properties to rent in Chennai will never meet its saturation even though the homes for sale in the city are rapidly increasing. This is because rental properties are ideal for those who find it tough to buy a home in a metro like Chennai where prices are soaring high. Flats for sale in Chennai may be a growing number but so are their prices. If the Central Business District of Chennai has exorbitant prices associated with residential and commercial properties; the suburban markets may be relatively lower but the numbers are still too high especially if the expected choice of property belongs to a reputed builder.

Properties to rent in Chennai are today exclusive deals since such is the nature of demand. Investors who already have properties for themselves are investing in homes solely for rental purposes. This trend has largely caught on in the country simply because rental yields in Chennai are skyrocketing. Despite the location of property, migrating population is looking at rental properties instead of investing in apartments for sale because
  1. those work beyond their budget and
  2. the nature of their jobs may require them to move to different locations in a few years.
This is where properties to rent in Chennai are making big impressions. Numerous builders from the country and around the world are cognizant of preferences of the city’s resident population and hence offer homes that suit their requirements and budgets. This way, ready-to-move-in homes have also created a new trend and constitute a phase to watch out for.
