partment prices in Bengaluru have skyrocketed over the past few years, with some properties nearly doubling in value. This surge has led many homeowners to consider whether it's the right time to sell. Real estate experts say the city is currently a seller's market, making it an ideal time for investors to cash out and reinvest in high-demand areas like Koramangala, Indiranagar, and Whitefield.
Data from JLL shows that Bengaluru recorded the highest number of new launches between January and March 2025, with 20,484 units across the top seven cities. This limited supply has pushed prices higher, making it a good time for investors to sell their properties. However, experts caution that the current pace of residential property appreciation may not be sustained in the coming years.
According to Knight Frank India, Bengaluru recorded the highest price growth among the top seven cities between January and March 2025, with rates surging 16% to ₹7,116 per sq ft. For instance, a plot in Jade Garden that sold for ₹2,000 per square foot in 2021 is now priced between ₹6,000 to ₹7,000 per square foot.
Financial advisors suggest that investors review their position and assess whether they truly need the money right now. If the rental yields are good and they're confident about renting it out, they should consider holding onto the property. However, if the owners are satisfied with the rental income and have the financial ability to hold onto it, selling and reinvesting in an already expensive market might not make sense.
Real estate experts note that city centre prices have soared, prompting many investors to look toward suburban and outlying areas instead. Areas like Devanahalli and Rajankunte in the north and Sarjapur (east) are seeing increased interest, with plots trading between ₹5,000 and ₹8,000 per square foot.
