The economic meltdown, the national melt down and umpteen other critical causes could not melt down the determination of the people for choosing the perfect home. This doggedness is one of the prime factors to determine the current trends prevailing in the real estate domain in Kolkata. The trend would be quite palpable and visible once you start exploring the arena of property in Kolkata. Whatever be the scale of the real estate projects numerous people are flocking them in search of a residential apartment in Kolkata. The only point to be noted is that the lookout is always for affordable homes. Therefore, developers and the different real estate companies in Kolkata are steadily switching to low cost homes in order to offer flat for sale in Kolkata suitable for every budget. People are not just looking forward to homes but are also in search of lands as that are indeed a lucrative investment option rendering high returns. Most of the lands on which people are likely to invest lie in the outskirts of Kolkata. This trend of buying lands or homes outside the city boundary has emerged recently. The development of  more accessible roads, flyovers, bypass connectors, and new routes for public transport like buses, autos, taxis and laying the lines for the city metro beyond the existing limits have added momentum to the practice. This newer transportation options have connected the urban area with the suburban well.

The growth of the real estate economy generally depends on the level of comfort generated to the people and the society with the infrastructural facilities acting as chief the driving force. India overall has developed manifold in terms of transportation but Kolkata exceeds all the other metros in that respect. The suburban areas in Kolkata like Chandpur Champahati (extreme East), Baruipur (South), Howrah (West), BT Road (North) and many more are coming up with splendid projects. It is really lucrative to invest in those places as the price of houses is really low in comparison with the communication facilities available. In spite of the economic crunch prevailing all around the end users won't have a huge pain in their pocket in buying apartments in North Kolkata, South kolkata, east, west or just anywhere in and around the city. They are the safe options as demand for real estate never goes down and even if the property or the land will be kept just like that for years altogether then also their value will get enhanced. The real estate companies in India are coming up with splendid offers following the footprints of metros like Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai.  There are early-bird offers where the first  few customers to book for the property are getting cars,  air conditioners, modular kitchens and many more. These resorts are mostly taken when the flats don't sell well for their designs, built or locations. Many of the buyers of Kolkata properties are the NRIs who keep it as a safe investment in the city. There is steady flow of buyers round the year and the city is awaiting many more promising projects in future.
