Kate Everett-Allen, head of international residential research at Knight Frank, said: "Expectations of second homes are increasing. With greater flexibility around remote working, owners are lengthening their stays with many now viewing them as 'co-primary' homes. From fast broadband to cinema rooms, gyms and A-grade technology, a second home now has a long wish list to fulfil."
Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director, Knight Frank India, said, "2020 has been a year that saw COVID-19 influenced slowdown not only in the real estate industry but overall, in the economy. The policy decisions by the Maharashtra and Karnataka governments to reduce the stamp duty have acted as a counterbalance to the disruption caused by the pandemic. The luxury residential sales saw an exponential surge in Mumbai in Q4 2020 and the demand outlook for 2021 remains resilient. The current market price offers a premium value to make a luxury residential asset purchase in Indian cities for both domestic and global wealthy individuals."
