India’s Top Luxury Residential Picks for 2025: Where First-Time Buyers Are Thinking Big. | The Property Times

New Delhi, May 28, 2025: Traditionally, first-time homebuyers have opted for affordable or entry-level properties. But that trend is shifting. Today, many buyers are skipping the starter home phase and entering the real estate market at the premium end. This change is driven by several factors — easier access to home loans, rising dual incomes, changing lifestyle aspirations, and a desire for better amenities and long-term value.

At the same time, developers across India are responding with high-quality, well-connected residential projects that offer not just luxury but convenience, security, and community living.
