India’s real estate market is broadening beyond office leasing, with economic growth, digitalisation, manufacturing, and infrastructure investment supporting sustained institutional interest across logistics, data centres, industrial parks, retail, and residential assets.

Record demand from Global Capability Centres (GCCs) is reshaping office requirements, driving occupiers toward high-quality, technology-enabled campuses and reinforcing demand for institutional-grade properties.

India’s REIT market is also maturing, where investors are placing greater emphasis on governance, asset quality, and capital allocation. Overall, resilient occupier demand, expanding domestic capital pools, and selective institutional investment continue to support a constructive long-term outlook for India’s real assets market.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  1. Living has been APAC’s most resilient real estate sector in recent years
  • It was the only sector to record investment volume growth during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the global rate-hiking cycle, at 51% and 18%, respectively.
  • Rental growth has also consistently outpaced both inflation and interest rates, preserving real income while maintaining a positive spread over financing costs.
  • Together, these characteristics reinforce APAC living as a compelling, income-oriented allocation within a diversified real estate portfolio.
  1. Structural demand is no longer the differentiator, execution is
  • Demographic shifts in APAC, particularly shrinking household sizes, the growth of single-person households, continued urbanisation and cross-border mobility, are increasing demand for housing and heightening affordability pressures.
  • This is unfolding alongside persistent housing shortages and elevated homeownership barriers, further shifting demand towards rental solutions.
  • Government policy has emerged as a key growth catalyst, boosting demand through immigration and labour mobility while creating a more supportive environment for institutional rental housing through planning and regulatory reforms.
  • The combination of policy-supported population growth and persistent housing supply strengthens demand visibility, supports high occupancy and creates favourable conditions for sustainable rental growth and long-term income resilience.
  • Demographic tailwinds and policy reforms underpin demand and expand the investable universe, but excess returns will increasingly depend on how investors enter, operate and scale assets.
  1. There is no single APAC living strategy
  • While the APAC living opportunity set is expanding, it is not a homogeneous asset class. Each market-subsector follows a different institutionalisation path, offering distinct risk-return profiles and entry strategies.
  • 在 日本, direct acquisition of stabilised multifamily assets remains the dominant strategy given the market’s established depth and liquidity.
  • Australia’s PBSA and coliving sectors feature a mix of ground-up development and conversion opportunities.
  • 在 新加坡, entry strategy into the coliving sector largely revolves around adaptive reuse and conversion of existing assets.
  • 香港 PBSA is likely the most conversion-led living market in APAC, driven by policy reforms.
  • 韩国’s living market is in an early stage of institutionalisation, creating opportunities for investors to establish operating capabilities and sourcing networks ahead of broader market development.
  1. Operational capability and scale are becoming core sources of alpha
  • Revenue management, product positioning, active asset management and local expertise are increasingly driving performance.
  • Regional platforms can enhance sourcing, standardise design and procurement, optimise pricing and operations, and create multiple capital recycling and exit pathways.

Knight Frank’s ultimate guide to real estate market performance and opportunities in the world’s most promising economy.

H1 2026 opened against a broadly supportive macroeconomic backdrop, though conditions grew more complex as the period progressed. The Reserve Bank of India’s repo rate stood at 5.25% through H1 2026, reflecting a cumulative 125 basis points of easing since the start of the rate-cutting cycle. With the last reduction having taken effect in December 2025, the Monetary Policy Committee held at both its February and June 2026 meetings, citing West Asia conflict-related energy risks and a potentially deficient monsoon. FY 2026 GDP growth was estimated at 7.6%, affirming underlying domestic resilience. However, the RBI revised its FY 2027 GDP growth projection to 6.6% and raised its FY 2027 CPI inflation forecast to 5.1%, reflecting uncertainty around energy prices and food supply conditions. For the residential market, cumulative rate easing continues to support home loan affordability, but with further cuts on hold and global uncertainties mounting, the monetary tailwind that sustained demand through 2025 has largely run its course.

Asian Real Estate Securities — July 2026 Outlook

Asian real estate securities are seeing a modest bounce at the start of July, supported by falling oil prices, softer US labor data, and some rotation away from outperforming technology and semiconductor stocks. Start-of-second-half portfolio rebalancing may also provide technical support for neglected sectors such as real estate. The key question is whether lower crude prices and weaker US jobs data are enough to shift fixed-income sentiment and reduce concern that the Fed’s next move could be further tightening. Central banks remain data dependent, but a less hawkish shift would be the clearest catalyst for a more sustained recovery in Asian REITs and real estate equities.

  • 日本： the long-awaited sale of Fuji Media’s real estate business should be a positive catalyst given its scale and pricing. Developers and J-REITs have been weak since Q1 as JGB yields rose, but transaction markets remain strong and J-REIT valuations have drifted back to around 0.85x P/NAV. We expect asset sales and unit repurchases to continue and potentially accelerate. The BOJ meets July 30-31 and is expected to hold after raising short-term rates to 1% in June, with further hikes more likely in Q4 or next year.
  • 澳大利亚： we remain very constructive following the share price correction that began in late 2025 as rate-cut expectations reversed into three RBA hikes. Consensus may again be too hawkish, and a long pause now appears more likely as housing softens and the labor market slows. August results will be important, particularly 2027 guidance. The key issue is top-line growth, where we are optimistic on retail, industrial, and CBD office in Sydney and Brisbane. Residential earnings remain under pressure, but valuations appear to discount weaker 2027 volumes.
  • 香港： real estate securities have corrected sharply over the past two months after strong prior outperformance. Near-term catalysts are limited, and tighter scrutiny of Chinese outbound direct investment remains an overhang for residential demand, with property launches already slowing. A drop in HIBOR would help, but that would likely require Fed easing, which is not the current base case. Central office rents and luxury retail trends continue to improve, which should support landlords with exposure to Central office and high-end retail.
  • 新加坡： we do not expect a major near-term catalyst for the S-REIT sector. Rates remain low but have crept higher, with 3-month SORA rising to 1.10% from its April low of 1.01%. Overall conditions remain supportive, but S-REITs are still range-bound due to a lack of fresh catalysts and limited rotational buying from generalist investors, who continue to favor financials over REITs.

Across the APAC region, living sector supply is increasingly being created by dislocation in other asset classes. Hotel impairment, office obsolescence, serviced apartment oversupply and selective regulatory reform are reshaping the playbook. Ground-up development still works selectively but is often not the dominant entry path.

The Asia Pacific regional economy entered 2026 on a positive note, having exceeded growth expectations through 2025. Further support was received by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on tariffs, however conflict in the Middle East provided unexpected headwinds as the world navigates the largest oil supply shock in history.

Family offices are becoming increasingly institutionalised and influential in global real estate, supported by the rapid growth of private wealth and a greater willingness to pursue cross-border investments, co-investments, and value-add strategies. Rather than concentrating on traditional trophy assets, many are allocating capital to sectors supported by long-term demographic and technological trends, including living assets, logistics, digital infrastructure, private credit, and operational real estate, with a focus on stable income and portfolio resilience.

Australia is attracting growing interest due to its transparent property market, economic stability, and opportunities in private credit and housing-related investments, while Singapore and Hong Kong continue to strengthen their roles as regional hubs for family office capital. The trend is particularly evident in Southeast Asia, where family offices are expanding across multiple markets and placing greater emphasis on governance, sustainability, operational expertise, and long-term value creation.
