In the past few years, the residential market in Chennai has been facing a down time. This year, it has started getting gradually recovered. It started with a healthy bounce back in the sales and unit launches.
The lull in real estate was caused due to the relaxation in foreign direct investment, real estate bill and demonetization drive. With this, because of political uncertainty, collapsing of buildings caused by flouting of norms, floods in 2015 and other aspects worsened the realty sector in the city.
In an analysis made between January and June 2017, it is observed that there is an increase in interest with the buyers.
