In March last year, people across the country were trying to wrap their heads around the novel coronavirus-outbreak. When the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic on March 11, most were already aware of its seriousness.

Schools, colleges started shutting down, big events started getting cancelled, people started donning masks, but the real estate industry continued to pull through, not wanting to incur major losses.
