Bengaluru, long famed for its thriving IT industry, pleasant climate, and notorious traffic snarls, is now making headlines for an entirely different reason鈥攕oaring real estate prices. The city鈥檚 housing market is witnessing an unprecedented boom, pushing homeownership beyond the reach of many middle-class buyers.
What鈥檚 Driving Bengaluru鈥檚 Property Price Surge?
The recent spike in property prices can be attributed to a mix of urban expansion, a steady influx of tech professionals, and the growing demand for premium housing. Residential hubs such as Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, and North Bengaluru have emerged as epicentres of development, especially for 2BHK and 3BHK apartments, where demand far outpaces supply.
NRI Investment: A Silent Game-Changer
An often-overlooked contributor to the price surge is the rising interest from Non-Resident Indians (NRIs). With stronger foreign currency earnings, the appeal of remote work flexibility, and an emotional connection to India, NRIs are increasingly investing in Bengaluru real estate. Post-pandemic, Indian cities have become attractive investment destinations, and Bengaluru鈥檚 cosmopolitan culture, tech-driven economy, and high rental yields make it a top pick alongside Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Pune.
Price Tag of Urban Aspiration
Today, owning a 3BHK flat in Bengaluru can cost anywhere between ?90 lakh to ?2 crore, depending on the locality. This represents a dramatic increase from just five years ago, leaving average and middle-income families struggling to keep up with the surging cost of urban living.
What This Means for the Average Buyer
For many, Bengaluru鈥檚 real estate market is fast becoming unaffordable, turning homeownership into a distant aspiration. With demand showing no signs of slowing and supply constrained by infrastructure bottlenecks, the city鈥檚 real estate story continues to be one of growth鈥攁nd growing concern for prospective homebuyers.
