Factors that influence the purchase decision of ultra-rich property buyers

According to experts, several factors such as amenities, location among others influence the purchase decision of ultra-rich property buyers.

“A truly luxury apartment is characterised by spacious layouts with soaring ceiling heights and expansive windows that offer breathtaking city views. Privacy is paramount, often enhanced by exclusive amenities such as private terraces and rooftop decks that flow seamlessly into entertainment spaces,” said Fatima Saidi, Luxury Head Mumbai of ANAROCK, a real estate consultancy firm.

"Residents enjoy world-class amenities, including state-of-the-art fitness centers, concierge services, and secure parking. High-end finishes, smart home technology, and elegant design elements in all common areas contribute to an overall sense of sophistication and comfort, making these homes the symbols of luxury living," Saidi added.

"A 100 crore apartment stands as an ultra-premium property, designed to offer an exceptional lifestyle and meet the highest expectations of elite buyers. Such a property must be located in a prime area, ideally featuring unobstructed views, often of the sea or an iconic city skyline, that offer a unique sense of exclusivity," said Ashwin Chadha, CEO, India Sotheby's International Realty, a real estate consultancy.

"High-end amenities are essential. The reputation and track record of both the developer and the architect are critical in adding value to the property. India’s appetite for high-end real estate is growing alongside rising wealth," Chadha added.
