Hyderabad Real Estate : Bargains around the corner ?

As the year draws to a close, the realtors and agents of Hyderabad have been a nervous wreck. Recent ruckus around assigned lands and land cieling has created some major headaches for the real estate bigwigs. I am not sure if this is going to affect the political and business circles, but a lot of the investors and realtors who hold onto land and sell it for a profit may be affected.

Government passed an amendment to some land act that allows the restoration of land to the original owners or public purpose. 40 Lac acres of land may be affected by this and other land cieling acts. Realtors are fearful that a release of the survey #'s etc., will bring the prices down to bare minimum and are desperately trying to find buyers for their land. Local media sources are reporting that outskirts prices like in ghatkesar, areas beyond shamshabad have fallen by 10-15% per acre in some areas.

IMHO, bargains are here to stay for the next 2 to 3 months and this may be the right time to get in if you are able to squeeze the cash starved developers/realtors. Remember the Buy Low, Sell High that we never seem to execute well.. may be this is the time to practice that.

Please remember that I am only writing what I hear and feel, you should do your homework before you make your move. Its your money.. so, Invest wisely !!!.

Wish you all a happy and prosperous 2007.
