Revolutionizing Home Rentals: An App for Hassle-Free, Broker-Free Renting


Team Leader Name: Prabodh Kumar Nayak

Team Members Name: Surya Narayan Nayak

Identifying the Problem


*Time-consuming process

Because brokers are involved, finding a rental home can be a time-consuming and difficult procedure.

*High brokerage fees

High fees from brokers make renting expensive for both landlords and tenants.

*Limited options

Because brokers do not always have access to the entire inventory of available residences, tenants frequently have few options.


*Lack of transparency

Brokers may misrepresent properties or fail to provide all the information required, therefore transparency may be a problem

The Idea: Broker-Free Renting

*Simplified Rental Search

Our app allows user to conveniently search for rental properties in their vicinity and connect directly 

*Direct Communication

 Tenants can communicate directly with landlords, eliminating the need for intermediaries.

*Dedicated Support

 Our dedicated support team ensures a seamless experience for both tenants and landlords.



implementation strategy

1- Implementation Strategy

Our implementation strategy revolves around the development of a highly user-friendly app, ensuring a smooth transition for both landlords and tenants.

2- Duration of Implementation

Within the next six months, we want to start in large cities and progressively go to other locations.

3- Roll out Plan

User acquisition tactics and focused marketing efforts are part of our roll-out plan.

4- Speed of Deployment:

We are personally spearheading the development efforts and utilizing our potential to guarantee a prompt and effective app deployment, knowing that our skills can match those of a committed team.

              Future Work:



In the future, we plan to implement a subscription model for house owners, allowing them to purchase various subscription plans to enhance security and trust. For instance, if a house owner opts for the BASIC plan, and a tenant expresses interest in renting their house, we will conduct an ID verification check. This additional security measure is included in the subscription model.


In our current model, we charge a nominal fee of 40-50 rupees for listing a house in our app. This fee is justified as we conduct thorough verification of the tenant's Aadhar and PAN details, significantly reducing the likelihood of fraud or misuse.
