Various investment avenues for the retail investor have transformed the structure of India’s real estate market with the rise of REITs, fractional ownership, and the use of prop tech, among others.
Niche sectors like senior living, student housing, and healthcare real estate are becoming popular, as per Gunjan Goel, the director at Goel Ganga Developments. This is because they tend to give better returns than ordinary properties. “These assets, in turn, help generate consistent income because of the sound lease options available,” she states.
There are also new trends emerging, like the green revolution in construction works, where green buildings are becoming the norm, and also promising smart city projects that are a fusion of real estate and technology.
These propositions are ideal for a dynamic investor willing to go beyond conventional real estate as the expanding Indian economy provides.
