“During the pandemic, there has been an increase in demand for properties in the area as more people, especially the ‘who’s who’, are preferring to shift to low-density developments rather than scout for luxury flats in densely populated multi-storey buildings,” says a local broker.
Also, prices in the area have conventionally been high as the city’s elite reside there and transactions happen through word of mouth.
