Visakhapatnam has quickly become one of India’s fastest-growing tier-II real estate markets. Nestled between scenic beaches and mountains on the eastern coast, it is emerging as a prime hotspot, driven by booming tourism and a growing IT sector. But with property prices soaring, the question is what will be the future of Vizag real estate?
The former proposal to make Vizag the executive capital, along with massive infrastructure projects and industry-friendly policies, has attracted major real estate investments, boosted property demand, and encouraged industries and IT firms to establish operations in the region.
The presence of major industry names like Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, Hindustan Shipyard Limited, and HPCL, along with the expanding IT sector featuring big companies like TCS, Google (upcoming), and Infosys, has fueled real estate demand, while the rise of startups and coworking spaces has further increased the need for office spaces.
Vizag’s attention-drawing coastline, growing tourism, and demand for vacation homes, along with investments in smart city projects and eco-friendly housing, have significantly fueled the real estate boom.
The expansion of the transportation sector in Visakhapatnam in terms of airports, railways, and road networks has enhanced accessibility, attracting more investors.
The planned projects like Vizag Metro Rail and Bhogapuram International Airport are expected to boost real estate prices in Vizag.
With Vizag’s growing urbanization and increased disposable incomes, investors see real estate in Vizag as a lucrative option. NRIs and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) are heavily investing in luxury properties and gated communities, pushing property valuations to skyrocket.
Despite the strong growth drivers, some indicators suggest that Vizag’s real estate market may be experiencing a speculative bubble.
Property prices in some areas have nearly doubled in the past 3-5 years without a proportional rise in income levels or rental yields, specifically in the rural areas.
Numerous real estate projects are being launched with the expectation of Vizag evolving into a major metropolitan hub, but potential delays in infrastructure or policy changes could affect the demand for real estate in Vizag.
According to a report by PropEquity, Visakhapatnam’s residential real estate market showed mixed trends between 2019–20 and 2023–24, with an average annual supply of 4,977 units, ranking 8th among tier-II cities. However, new residential supply declined by 8% compared to previous years. Despite a 63% rise in absorption rate which indicates high demand, Vizag ranked 14th among 30 tier-II cities in PropEquity’s study.
While Vizag’s real estate has immense potential, the buyer should conduct thorough research, and focus on sustainable developments rather than short-term gains. The future of Vizag’s real estate market depends on how well demand aligns with supply and the implementation of key infrastructure projects. So what is the future of real estate in Vizag? Only time will tell.
