End-to-end remote rental — KYC, agreement, deposit collection, monthly rent, TDS, and dispute handling — all from Dubai, London, or San Francisco.
If you're an NRI with a flat in Mumbai, Bengaluru, or Pune, the biggest pain isn't finding tenants — it's everything that happens after. Rent cheques bouncing, deposits going missing, society NOCs stuck for months, and a 30% TDS deduction you forgot to plan for. Here's the full remote playbook.
1. Verified tenant discovery
- List on Propey with NRI flag — listing surfaces in NRI-focused search.
- Every applicant goes through Aadhaar + PAN + employment verification.
- WhatsApp video walkthroughs replace in-person visits.
2. Agreement & registration
- MTA-2021 compliant template, customised to property state.
- Aadhaar eSign for both parties — legally valid under IT Act 2000.
- Optional: registered notary appointment booked via Propey concierge.
3. Money flow
- Deposit lands in regulated escrow, not your NRO account.
- Monthly rent auto-debits tenant UPI → your NRO account on day 5.
- TDS @ 31.2% auto-deducted and filed (Form 27Q) by our partner CA.
4. Maintenance & disputes
Our city-ops team handles plumber/electrician dispatch on your behalf, with photo proof of every job. If a deposit dispute arises at move-out, DisputeDesk closes it in 7 working days without you ever needing to fly back.
5. Tax & repatriation
Annual rental income statement (in INR + your home-country currency) and a Form 15CA/CB filing assistant let you repatriate up to USD 1M per year cleanly. Most of our NRI landlords spend under 30 minutes a year managing their Indian rental.
