📊 Malappuram Property Market 2026

Malappuram is Kerala's most NRI-remittance-driven real estate market. Gulf Malayali money flows heavily into plot purchases, villa construction, and family homes across the district.

  • ●Plot Sales: Residential plots are the dominant transaction type, with high demand for 5–15 cent plots near town centers and highways.
  • ●Gulf Remittance Effect: UAE, Saudi, and Qatar-based buyers drive much of the land market, especially during Eid and summer visit seasons.
  • ●Highway Corridors: NH66 and Manjeri–Perinthalmanna road-facing plots command a significant premium over interior parcels.
  • ●Villa Projects: Gated community and villa project uptake is growing, particularly in zones near educational institutions and hospitals.
🏠 NRI Plot Tip: Malappuram plot transactions often involve Power of Attorney holders acting on behalf of Gulf-based buyers. Always verify the original title deed and get an Encumbrance Certificate (EC) before signing. Use an Apostilled POA registered at the Indian consulate for clean legal standing.
