What our advisors are seeing

Mandwa: ferry-driven price ceiling raise

The four-sailings-per-evening Friday schedule from Bhaucha Dhakka has accelerated demand from "monthly" to "fortnightly" Mumbai HNI buyers. Sea-view villas under ₹15 Cr — historically Alibag's deepest market — now clear in under three weeks of going to market. Over the past quarter, three Mandwa estates over ₹40 Cr have transacted off-market.

Kashid & Murud: branded-land arrives

The House of Abhinandan Lodha\'s Sol De Alibaug — a 110-acre branded plotted development — has reset price expectations across Kashid. Lodha Group is mobilising a parallel project. The presence of branded land has both lifted floor prices and made the surrounding boutique-developer inventory look more compelling on a per-square-foot basis.

Akshi & Kihim: where the architects are building

The most architecturally interesting work on the coast is happening on 1–3 acre Akshi and Kihim plots — single-owner private estates by SDM Architects, Sanjay Puri, and a small group of Mumbai-based design firms. These are not on portals. They transact via personal network and through us.

NMI Airport: NRIs are showing up

Since the Navi Mumbai airport began commercial flights in December 2025, our NRI inquiry volume has grown materially. The two-hour Mumbai-traffic-to-Mumbai-airport friction is gone. Direct flights from Dubai, Singapore, London, and (eventually) North America now make twice-yearly second-home visits practical for the first time.
