It shall grow from $ 21260.80 Billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. the growth of the forcasted period can be attributed to rising urbanization, increasing population growth, increasing govement support and rapid industrialization. The value of the global construction market in 2024 grew by an estimated 2.3% with a total value of over 15,000 billion US dollars. This means a registered net slowdown with respect to 2023, which closed with an increase in investments of more than 4%. Forecasts for 2025 indicate a moderate improvement in the overall situation of the global construction market, with growth expected to be 2.8%. Further strengthening of market dynamics is expected for next year. The graph below summarises the trend for last year and the forecast for 2025 in the various geographical areas.

It is clear that the construction sectors financed through public funding (infrastructure, energy and utilities) benefitted from the higher growth rates and enjoy a more positive outlook in terms of growth in the upcoming years. The commercial and industrial sectors, on the other hand, registered more moderate rates of growth, while the global residential sector encountered a recession last year, which will leave space for it to remain more or less stagnant in 2025. The main driver behind this positive outlook for infrastructure constructions is the energy sector, where extraordinary investment plans have been put in place by Governments to sustain the construction market (and the economy in general). The main one is the package of measures called Build Back Better with a value of 1.2 trillion dollars, which was presented by the Biden administration in the USA and received bipartisan support. Various national plans of considerable value have been implemented in Europe with funds aimed mainly at the construction of infrastructures.

The global market is primarily driven by rapid urbanization and population growth, which increases the requirement for commercial and residential spaces significantly. Moreover, the implementation of government policies, including tax incentives, affordable housing initiatives, and infrastructure investments, further stimulates market activity. Additionally, continual technological advancements, such as smart home innovations, virtual tours, and digital transaction platforms, enhance accessibility and streamline processes for buyers and investors. Global Real Estate Market size was valued at USD 3.9 trillion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 4.11 trillion in 2024 to USD 6.31 trillion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period (2025-2032). The United States stands out as a key regional market and is witnessing growth due to the countrys strong job market and economic growth, creating a consistent demand for both residential and commercial properties. Moreover, demographic trends, such as the rise in millennial homebuyers and an aging population seeking retirement-friendly housing, significantly impact property preferences and development patterns.

The United Nations (UN) states that by 2050, 68% of the worlds population is expected to reside in urban areas. Changing age demographics, such as the millennial generation entering the housing market, impact preferences for housing types and locations. The aging population drives demand for retirement communities or healthcare facilities. Understanding these demographic shifts is essential for developers, investors, and policymakers to anticipate and meet shifting real estate needs. Demographic factors significantly shape the market, encompassing aspects like population growth, age distribution, and urbanization. The presence of large economies like China and India with their huge population is one of the major reasons for the growth of real estate development and investment in properties. The favorable government policies and regulations are some of the reasons for the growth of the real estate market in the Indian region. Increasing spending on rental services and homeownership by millennials is one of the major reasons for the growth of the real estate industry.

One of the industries with the greatest international recognition is real estate. Housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial are its four subsectors. The expansion of the business environment, the need for office space, and the desire for urban and semi-urban housing all contribute to the rise of this industry. In terms of direct, indirect, and induced effects on all economic sectors, the construction industry comes in third place out of the 14 key industries. The Indian real estate sector is experiencing a remarkable recovery and gearing up for a promising future. It is buoyed by impressive economic growth and the potential easing of interest rates in the medium term. This resurgence in the post-COVID era signifies more than just an industry rebound; it reflects a determination to overcome challenges, seize opportunities, and forge a prosperous path ahead. Kolkata, with its rich cultural heritage and relatively affordable property prices, has emerged as an appealing choice for real estate investors. Areas like Rajarhat, New Town, and EM Bypass are experiencing significant growth, driven by infrastructural improvements and the citys growing economy.

Concurrently, the gross office leasing activity expanded significantly, achieving 15.16 million square feet in the first quarter of 2024, a notable 13.8% increase from the previous year. Indias spending in these sectors has been both productive and efficient, driving economic growth and laying the groundwork for sustained development.

For the first time, gross leasing in Indias top 7 markets surpassed the 60 million sq ft mark, reaching an impressive total of 62.98 million sq ft, marking a substantial 26.4% increase compared to the previous year.

Complementing this demand is the governments steadfast focus on infrastructure development, which is fuelling housing requirements across diverse regions of the country.

Additionally, emerging segments such as senior living, co-living, and data centers are poised for exponential growth.
