We will be hiring about 1,000 people this financial year,” the company’s founder and MD Ankit Kansal told here.With 30 percent of sales in value terms coming from non-resident Indians (NRIs), he said, the company is actively looking to acquire a brokerage firm in the US to market Indian properties. The discussions are underway with some of the US-based brokerage houses that are marketing Indian properties in America. 360 Realtors competes with the likes of PropTiger.com, AROCK, Square Yards, Investor Clinic and Wealth Clinic in the organised property brokerage business, which has now come under the ambit of new realty law RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority).
On the overall real estate market, Kansal said, it has once again started turning bullish on the back of regulatory reforms and healthy economic growth.
“Developers are also coming up with numerous attractive schemes such as developer subvention, attractive prices and freebies, thereby giving a buying boost,” he added.
Kansal said, housing prices are likely to remain stable for at least another 6-8 months. Over the last year, the company has incubated verticals such as a unique broker aggregation platform, strategic advisory services for developers and a media house to achieve higher growth, he said.
