“No broker is truly genie in the bottle when it comes to renting your apartment. I like to say thanks to my relationship manager & Field RMs who helped me close the deal. From tenant sourcing to finalizing the deal and preparing the final rent agreement, all was taken care by NoBroker”

“It was very difficult for me to coordinate my Tenant search from the UAE. The time difference plus the problem of coordinating with someone to show my Apartment was a horror. I bought the Owner Property Management Assure plan from NoBroker and everything was handled by my RM. I got regular updates and all I had to do was finalize a tenant. Right from House Inspection to Tenant Search to preparing the Rental Agreement, everything was done by NoBroker. I would definitely recommend this plan to all my NRI friends.”
