Good and Affordable Localities to Buy Residential
Properties in Mumbai
2
Mumbai-the commercial capital of the country and
home to the Indian film industry, has always been
a preferred choice for buying, selling or renting
properties in India. It is recognized as an
IT/ITES hub and this has led to a thriving
demand for properties. Despite the skyrocketing
real estate prices, the city has something to
offer for every class of the society to invest in
real estate.Due to large scale urbanization in
the suburbs, Mumbai is expected to see very high
demand for residential space of approximately
16.40 lakh units. The mid-scale and affordable
housing in suburban and peripheral areas will be
the focus of this demand.The eastern suburban
areas of Navi Mumbai, like Kharghar, Airoli, CBD
Belapur, and Sanpada which have been getting a
lot of infrastructural developments,happen to be
good investment options. Rates in Navi Mumbai
range between Rs.3000 to Rs.5000 per sq ft.
While the North Western and Eastern suburbs
continue to be the preferred locations in
Mumbai, the demand has continued and there are
some new projects coming up in South Mumbai.
Also, Central Mumbai areas e.g. Wadala, Sion etc
are coming up with new residential ventures.Navi
Mumbai is getting the larger share of the pie, as
most of the real estate projects are coming up
here and the prices are affordable as compared to
Mumbai. Many options are still  available in
Mumbai, wherein you can afford to have an abode
of your own.  Lets have a look at a few of them
