The average time to buy a property in India has come down to just 26 days in the first half of this financial year. This figure is much lower than 33 days last year. This means that people are now deciding to buy a house sooner than ever before. The reason behind this change is rising disposable income and strong economic activity, which is making housing an attractive investment option.

Rising demand for ultra-luxury homes

According to a report by Anarock Group, ultra-luxury homes (priced at more than Rs 3 crore) are witnessing the fastest sales. The conversion time for these homes, i.e. the average time taken to decide on a purchase, was reduced to just 15 days in the first half of 2025. This figure was 22 days in 2024. This means that buyers of these high-value homes can make quick decisions and the demand for these homes is also growing very fast.

Mid-range homes also boom.

Mid-range homes are also selling fast. Buyers of homes priced between Rs 50 lakh and Rs 1 crore are taking an average of 30 days. Whereas, for homes priced between Rs 1 crore and Rs 3 crore, this time has come down to 27 days. These figures show that Indian home buyers are now making decisions faster than before.

Rely on trusted developers.

Another reason behind buyers making quick decisions is that the number of new projects launched by branded and trusted developers has increased in the last few years. These developers assure quality and timely delivery, which prevents buyers from rushing to make decisions.

Possibility of overall change

Anuj Puri, Chairman of Anarock Group, says that although the time taken to buy a property has reduced at present, there is no possibility of any major change in this process. Indian home buyers are always cautious in terms of big investments, so this change has happened at a slow pace.

The process of buying property in India has now become faster and more efficient. Economic improvements, higher incomes, and reliable developers are making faster decisions. Although buying a home is still a big financial decision, housing has become a good investment option these days.
