The present boom in the real estate sector is likely to continue in 2008.
As the economy is predicted to grow at around 9%, the realty sector will
continue to grow at a whopping 20% or even more, per annum. The
economic growth creates demand for commercial real estate, which leads
to creation of new employment.
