For NRIs and OCI cardholders
Someone trustworthy on the ground, honest video walkthroughs, and a documented process from shortlist to keys — for buyers in the Gulf, the UK, North America, Singapore and Australia.
The real worries
Photos and brochures don't show the road outside, the noise, the light, or whether the building matches the approved plan.
Who should hold it, what it should allow, and how to get it attested abroad and accepted in Karnataka.
Paying from the right account, the paperwork for sending money, and getting it back out of India if you sell later.
Buying a resale home from another NRI means deducting much more tax than usual — and the buyer is liable if it goes wrong.
How it works
Every step is documented and shared with you, so you always know where things stand — whatever time it is where you are.
Budget, which account you'll pay from, how long you plan to hold, and whether you'll live in it or rent it out.
Three or four homes that have passed our title, khata, approval and RERA checks — with a plain-English summary of each.
Live walkthroughs of the actual unit and the neighbourhood, unedited, at a time that suits your time zone.
If you won't be in India, we guide you on a specific POA, its attestation abroad and stamping in Karnataka.
Payments linked to construction progress, one-sided clauses removed, and the RERA escrow account confirmed.
Registration at the Sub-Registrar, the handover inspection, and the khata transferred into your name.
Video site visits
We walk you through the real unit on a live call and point the camera wherever you ask. Afterwards you get a short written report with photos and measurements.
The rules, simply
A plain summary of the rules most NRI buyers ask about. Rules and rates change, so we confirm the details for your situation with a chartered accountant before you commit.
NRIs and OCI cardholders can buy residential and commercial property in India without special permission from the Reserve Bank of India.
They cannot buy agricultural land, plantation property or farmhouses — except by inheritance.
Payment must come through normal banking channels: money sent from abroad, or funds in your NRE, NRO or FCNR account. It cannot be paid in cash or foreign currency notes.
If you paid from abroad or from an NRE / FCNR account, you can usually repatriate the original amount for up to two residential properties.
Sale proceeds from an NRO account can be repatriated up to USD 1 million per financial year, with Forms 15CA and 15CB certified by a chartered accountant.
A specific POA lets someone you trust sign the sale agreement, the sale deed and appear at the Sub-Registrar — for one named property only. It is safer than a general POA.
If signed abroad, it must be attested at the Indian embassy or consulate (or apostilled), then stamped in Karnataka within three months of arriving in India.
Buying from a resident seller: you deduct 1% TDS when the price is ₹50 lakh or more.
Buying from an NRI seller: you must deduct TDS on the seller's capital gains at a much higher rate, unless the seller has a lower-deduction certificate from the Income Tax Department.

Questions
No. With a specific Power of Attorney, someone you trust can sign and register on your behalf. Many of our NRI clients complete the whole purchase from abroad.
Yes. A PAN is required to register a property purchase in India and for most payments. If you don't have one, we can help you apply.
We go to the site and walk you through the actual unit on a live video call — not a showroom or a sample flat. We show the view, the light, the corridor, the street outside and anything you ask to see, and follow up with a written report.
We usually reply within a few hours during Indian working hours, and WhatsApp messages sent overnight are answered the next morning.
We can help you find tenants and coordinate handover and snag fixes. Ask us about what you need.
