Prices keep rising. Homes here gained about 23.5% in 3 years, the second best in Mangaluru.
Very little land is left, so new supply stays low and prices hold up.
MG Road and the KSRTC bus stand are about 1.4 km away.
The airport is only about 9 km away, useful for Gulf travel.
Higher ground means better drainage in the heavy monsoon and slightly cooler weather.
The famous Kadri Manjunatha Temple, Kadri Hills and Kadri Park are close by.
About one in four luxury buyers here are NRIs, which keeps demand steady.
Know before you buy
Few homes come up for sale. Many deals happen through personal contacts, not public listings.
It is expensive. A 2 BHK starts around ₹50 lakh and branded 3 BHK flats start around ₹1.2 Cr.
New projects are small, often 30 to 60 homes, so choice of floor and size is limited.
There is no large mall within Kadri itself.
Mangaluru has no metro. You will rely on buses, autos and cabs.
Some lower pockets near Mallikatte can collect water in heavy rain, so check the plot's level.
Our verdict on Kadri
Kadri is the safest long-term address in Mangaluru for buyers who want a quiet, central home. Land is scarce, prices have risen steadily and NRI demand stays strong.
The trade-offs are high prices, very few homes for sale and small projects. Buy here if you plan to live in the home or hold it for many years. Look at Bejai or Attavar if you want more choice at a lower price.
