Real Estate values have a positive impact on micro markets through which Metro routes pass.

An analysis by Centre for Environment and Technology (CEPT) on the impact of Delhi Metro on real estate in three phases i.e., pre-construction phase, under-construction phase and post-construction phase has found that property prices jumped significantly after the Metro began its operations. The study has established that property prices around stations that are at the peripheries of the city have considerably closed the gap with those at city centre. Further, the prices are highest within 500 metres of Metro routes. Currently, the impact of Hyderabad Metro on Hyderabad Real Estate market (which is still in the bidding stage) is insignificant. With metro works likely to initiated in the month of August 2011, real estate prices along the metro routes may inch up. However, the real impact would only be felt when the works are completed, which is likely to in the year 2015.
