Real estate developers have information about quality of their projects which homebuyers lack. In developing countries, homebuyers face high transactions costs in accessing this information. We show how mandatory disclosures may be a way to resolve information asymmetry.

[Sahil Gandhi @gandhisahil]

Real Estate Regulatory Authority was introduced in 2016 to bring about transparency in the Indian real estate

What was its impact on outcomes? We answer this question in our new @JPubEcon paper "Do mandatory disclosures squeeze the lemons?"

Housing in India is twice as expensive as it ought to be. From 1991 to 2021, property prices far outgrew the incomes of the population. Why and how?

Read the @IndianExpress feature of the CSEP paper by Shishir Gupta, @nunduni & Annie George to find out.

Behind India's unaffordable #housing prices lies structural problems, a less-than-competitive market structure, and the presence of a shadow economy.

To address these issues, this CSEP working paper provides threefold recommendations for policymakers.

🚨 #NewResearch | How expensive is #housing in India, and why? What explains the tepid increase in #houseprice growth over the last 7–8 years?

Shishir Gupta, @nunduni & Annie George provide clarity on how to tackle this challenge going forward.

🏡As a home buyer, is there any way to avoid buying a property caught up in litigation?

@nunduni and @gandhisahil recommend ways to make disclosure of information mandatory by making the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act 2016 effective.

[Sahil Gandhi @gandhisahil]

Oped in @EconomicTimes w/ @nunduni

Information flow in real estate are limited. This leaves buyers in the dark, impeding their ability to distinguish between good- & bad-quality housing. With little information, they may purchase homes mired in litigation

🚨#NewResearch
Potential home buyers often lack info about housing projects' litigation status, resulting in overpricing of such houses.

@VaidehiTandel @gandhisahil @anupamKnanda
@nunduni study the impact of disclosure laws in India's #housing market.
