Original story posted on October 11, 2008: It is now time to declare the "real estate boom" story over, as builders desperately try to snare buyers with whatever-it-takes.
There were no customers at the property expo when GurgaonScoop.com visited the Epicenter in Sector 44, Gurgaon on October 09, 2008 as the doors were swung open at 11 am. Zero people who were interested in buying ... a possible mitigating reason was that it was Dussehra. But the offers being dangled now as the property show gets ready to close indicates that possibly the problem is deeper.
We were motivated to go there as builders like DLF and Unitech, who generally disdain property shows like this, were supposed to be present there. And present they were .. and here are the offers now for buying from them:
- DLF is offering free gold coins
