Key Highlights

Few of the Indian cities like Ahmedabad, Pune, and Kolkata are well known for being affordable and having a diverse variety of properties, thus becoming the first preference of first-time buyers and investors.
In the United States, cities such as Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa, and Memphis are experiencing more listings, longer market times, and growing price reductions, giving buyers greater leverage.
Market analysts observe that customers can negotiate 5-7 percent discounts in large mid-market areas, particularly where there is excess inventory and the sellers are under duress.

Where Buyers Have the Upper Hand

Ahmedabad is the most affordable city in which to reside in India, with good borrowing rates and a sufficient supply of new housing.
Both Kolkata and Pune continue to be favored by the buyers for their combination of affordability, infrastructure growth, and lifestyle.
Miami's real estate market is slowing, with homes taking longer to sell and close to a quarter of listings seeing a price cut.
Tampa and Jacksonville are more deeply stocked and more deeply discounted, reducing the likelihood of bidding wars and providing consumers with greater options.
Memphis is notable for being economical, with current monthly mortgage payments below average rents, hence making homeownership easier for individuals.

Trends to Watch

Home price stabilization and greater supply of homes in primary cities.
Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities in India are emerging as new hotspots with government projects and infrastructure projects.
They are more inclined to negotiate, especially in the case of markets with rising inventory and falling sales.
