Brokers said the property is a corner house that commands a value of around Rs 6-7 lakh per sq yard. “This is a bullish rate thanks largely due to the supply-demand mismatch for standalone bungalows in the capital. The property is a corner house, a location preferred by several buyers,” said Rohit Chopra of SanD Advisory Pvt Ltd, a property consultancy firm.
