Festive Season Sees Shift to Flexible Payment Plans in Real Estate Offers
During the festive season, real estate developers are shifting from traditional freebies like appliances and gold coins to flexible, construction-linked payment plans that ease buyers' cash-flow pressures. These plans allow staggered payments aligned with project milestones, reducing upfront costs and monthly loan burdens. While some incentives like stamp duty waivers and gold coins remain, buyers increasingly prioritize affordability and long-term value over short-term gifts, reflecting a maturing housing market and more discerning consumer preferences.
