Will freebies boost property sales?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Property builders have lined up a series of lucrative offers to boost sales. Some are offering free Mercedes or BMW, or at least a few gold coins to lure buyers. In some cases, even a small flat is being thrown into the deal for those eyeing premium segment bungalows.

Will these offers pull new buyers into the market? Do such marketing tactics work well in a stagnant market?

Have property transactions taken a dip?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Economic slowdown has impacted market and trade segments all over the world. First it was the share markets and now it is the job scenario.

Property segment has also witnessed a slowdown in this phase. Some are calling it ‘stagnation’, while others are describing it as ‘correction’ of the property market. Are fresh transactions still happening in the market? Have property deals deflated from their estimated mark?

Is property better investment than gold?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Global slowdown has caused a serious dent in the financial markets. Shares, markets trade and even property transactions have hit an all time low. However, gold prices remain high as the metal is being considered as an alternative investment tool.
Given this sentiment, which of the two is a better investment option:
- Gold
- Property (including shares of property companies)
