EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Project Title : Understanding service cum product perception of Consumer


for
Real estate
Company Name : PropEdge
Realty Industry Type : Real
Estate Duration : 2
months

The objective of the


study:
• To Study the various factors affecting the customer buying perception.
• To understand the reason behind investing in the real estate sector.
• To evaluate the impact of branding in real estate on the customer decision-making
process
• To study the demographic profile of respondents.

This study is related to the real estate industry in Pune the industry is riding a growth
wave, which is evident from the financial results posted by some of the leading
contractors. However, the industry is faced with certain challenges. The need to be price
competitive, adhere to safety, and quality consciousness, adapt to technological
changes, develop and use new construction materials, and have adequately trained
manpower are issues that industry must look into and address.
The basic objective behind carrying out this study was to study the property purchasing
behavior i.e. (Residential) of different types of customers in different areas in Pune city,
to study the various factors affecting the customer-buying pattern. The researcher had to
study different real estate areas of Pune the researcher was given a summer internship
Project of studying the perception of customers while buying property across different
areas in east Pune for PROPEDGE REALTY. The study was majorly focused on
studying the demographic profile of respondents and promoting the right property to the
customers. This was a complete in-house that started in 7 August 2023 and was
completed on 30 September 2023.The project started by making cold calls to around
100 customers and knowing their views on their perception or behavior while buying
property in locations across Pune. There were 17 questionnaires that were made and
asked the customers.
After completing this study, it was found that the maximum number of mum respondents
are having the residential on rental, it was also found that price, locality, connectivity,
brand image and amenities are the major factor which is considered by the customers at
the time of purchasing the residential property. The ‘quality’ & ‘facilities’ are most
considerable parameters at the time of selecting residential property. It was also found
that the demand of the 2 & 3 BHK flats were more to comparing other types of
residential properties. After going through this study, I would recommend PROPEDGE
REALTY that they should try to concentrate on CRM activities, such as loyalty to create
strong good will and gain new customers. Also, they should come up with more multi-
developer events and should make people aware about their company by using hoardings
and social media campaigns.

THEORY
The term real estate comes from the Spanish word real, which means royal. So real estate
literally translates into the royal estate. This is because, during Agrarian Age, there really
were two classes of people, royalty and peasants. The royals owned the land and the
peasants lived on and worked the land. There are five types of Real Estate, namely
Residential (housing), Commercial (offices, shops, theatres, hotels, car parks), Industrial
(warehouses, factories, power plants) Agricultural (farms, orchards, etc.) and Special
purpose (hospitals, schools, etc.) Real estate includes:
Residential new houses and existing houses for resale,
Commercial shopping centers and offices,
Industrial and manufacturing buildings and property, Vacant land
and farms.
Real Estate covers private lodging, business workplaces, retail outlets, exchanging
spaces, For example, theatres, inns and eateries, mechanical structures, for
example, manufacturing Plants, and government structures. It includes the buy,
deal, and advancement of land and also Private and non-private structures. The exercises
of the land division envelop the lodging and Development segments moreover. The Real
Estate in India are the home designers, estate manufacturers, Apartment and engineers,
and Township engineers who are assuming a noteworthy job in building nation’s
framework. Under The genuine endeavors of these land designers, urban communities in
India have seen a fast Development in the development of private and business ventures.
It is because of the inventive Endeavors and exquisite developments of these land
manufacturers, Major urban areas in India Have seen excellent facelift. Regardless of
whether it is private property or business property The Indian land firms are dependably
up with new imaginative thoughts and plans, which can Grab the eye of financial
specialists over the globe.
Indian cities are normally categorized into three tiers:
Tier, I comprise Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore.
Tier II consists of Hyderabad, Pune, and Chennai, the cities targeted by companies
as alternative Off shoring destinations and which now possess a well-trained pool of
skilled labour. According to Research the cost advantage of Tier II cities over those in
Tier I is estimated at 15% to 20%.
Tier III cities: But given the rising costs in Tier II cities in recent years, companies are
increasingly eyeing Tier III cities. These cities with populations of more than a million
(10
Lakhs) are that not yet completely established as outsourcing and off-shoring
destinations. Their absolute cost advantage over Tier I cities is estimated at between 15%
and 30% by the same DB Research.
