Christie’s International Real Estate is entering India to sell high-end homes, estates and villas. It has partnered with New Delhi based real estate firm, Himmat & Rohini Singh LLP. to tap into the luxury residential market of the country.
After Covid-19, India’s luxury real estate has seen promising growth. Buyers are now looking for more spacious, comfortable homes, where they can combine their personal and work-from-home friendly lifestyles. The pandemic has also enthused those living on rent to buy homes.

Through its collaboration with Indian real estate advisors, Christie’s will focus on the rapidly growing realty market in the country. Their observation is that discerning buyers and sellers of luxury properties are constantly in search of top-notch, personalised services when in the process of buying a home.
Moreover, as HNIs too are increasingly seeking second homes within and outside India, Christie’s will get to assist them by leveraging its global network of luxury housing specialists and brokers.
