Rising Property Prices in Cox’s Bazar & Sylhet

Bangladesh’s real estate market has seen rapid changes in recent years, and two regions stand out — Cox’s Bazar and Sylhet. Both areas are witnessing a surge in property demand, driving prices upward and creating fresh opportunities for investors, especially Non-Resident Bangladeshis (NRBs).

🌊 Cox’s Bazar: The Tourism & Investment Magnet

Cox’s Bazar, home to the world’s longest sea beach, is no longer just a tourist destination — it is becoming a real estate hotspot.

Why Prices Are Rising:

• Tourism Growth: Hotels, resorts, and luxury apartments are in high demand as domestic and international tourism expands.
  
  
• Infrastructure Projects: New highways and airport upgrades are making the area more accessible.
  
  
• Second Homes & Vacation Villas: NRBs and urban elites are increasingly buying seaside property for personal and rental use.
  
  

📈 Result: Land and apartment prices in Cox’s Bazar have increased significantly in the last 3–5 years, with premium beachfront plots showing the sharpest rise.

🏞️ Sylhet: The Diaspora-Driven Market

Sylhet has long been a favorite for NRBs, especially those based in the UK, who continue to invest heavily in the region.

Why Prices Are Rising:

• Strong NRB Demand: Thousands of expatriates buy land and build homes in Sylhet every year.
  
  
• Remittance Inflows: Sylhet receives one of the highest volumes of remittances in Bangladesh, much of which goes into property.
  
  
• Urban Expansion: New townships, commercial complexes, and gated communities are being developed to meet demand.
  
  

📈 Result: Property prices in Sylhet city and surrounding areas have steadily climbed, making it one of Bangladesh’s most dynamic real estate markets.

💡 What This Means for NRBs & Investors

• High ROI Potential: Both Cox’s Bazar and Sylhet offer strong appreciation value.
  
  
• Rental Opportunities: Tourism-driven rentals in Cox’s Bazar and diaspora family rentals in Sylhet are highly lucrative.
  
  
• Early Mover Advantage: While prices are rising, there is still room for growth as infrastructure expands and urbanization continues.
  
  

🚀 Conclusion

For NRBs and global investors, Cox’s Bazar and Sylhet represent two very different but equally promising opportunities. One is powered by tourism, the other by diaspora demand. Both are shaping the future of Bangladesh’s property market.
