The Rationale

There are many misconception about real estate industry, and the biggest among them is that the growth is measured from the appreciation in prices.

Which is not always right, you will have to see the growth in demand/ sales.

Sector grows with consumer, not by the prices. When mobile was launched the call rates were Rs 16/-. You can't say that was the peak of the telcom industry. We have now.. Consumers and call rates less than 1/16 of what it used to be!.

The rules which are followed by almost all the industry, is completely over looked by in real estate industry.


  • Real Estate showed negative growth since 2006.
  • Sales have been continuously dropping.
  • Yet it was projected and perceived as growth period because prices were going up.
  • Movement in Sales & Prices between Oct 05 to June 08
    • Growth in Prices: 44% (CAGR)
    • Decline in Sales: -40% (CAGR)

" Industry grows with consumers, not by prices"!

We may call it lack of understanding. Or misrepresentation.
