Will the value of the property rise faster than the interest on loan?

In the early 2000s, when home loans were available at 6-7% and property prices were galloping at 20-25%, it made eminent sense to invest in an upcoming apartment project. You could book two properties and sell one of them after a few years for a profit big enough to repay the entire loan taken for the first property. Those days are now history. Property prices are now appreciating at a slower pace. In some markets, such as Noida and Greater Noida in the National Capital Region, prices have even come down in the past 12-18 months.
