Your Bengaluru property,handled without you.
Whitefield has one of the highest concentrations of NRI-owned property in India, and managing those homes is a large part of what we do. Rent arrives on schedule, problems get solved before they reach you, and you get a written record of your asset's condition.
Distance is notthe problem.Silence is.
The tax and banking mechanics of owning property in India as an NRI are well-defined and entirely solvable. TDS under Section 195, an NRO account, Form 15CA and 15CB for repatriation — your CA and your bank handle these constantly.
What actually goes wrong is operational. Rent that quietly stops and nobody tells you for two months. A maintenance issue that would have cost ₹4,000 in March and costs ₹90,000 in November. A tenant who moves out and takes the deposit dispute with them because nobody photographed the flat when they moved in.
Every one of those is a failure of someone being locally responsible and telling you the truth on a schedule. That is the whole service, and everything below is just the specific mechanism for it.
Six commitments,in writing.
Rent, on schedule
Collected, followed up and transferred to your NRO account on a stated date, with a monthly statement that arrives whether or not you ask for it.
Eyes on your asset
Periodic inspections with dated photographs, so you can see the actual condition of your property from eight thousand kilometres away.
Your tenant's first call
They call us about the leaking tap, not you. You hear about it in a summary, after it is fixed.
Documentation held
Agreement drafting and registration, renewals, deposit settlement, and TDS clauses written in properly rather than discovered at assessment.
Timed to you
Updates and calls scheduled against your timezone. You should not be reading a maintenance update at 3am.
Vendors at cost
Plumbers, electricians, painters — invoices passed through at cost. We never profit from something breaking in your flat.
A note on tax advice: we handle documentation, coordinate with your chartered accountant and make sure TDS obligations are written into the agreement correctly. We are not tax advisors and we will not pretend to be — for filings, assessments and Section 197 applications, work with a qualified CA. We are happy to introduce you to one.
Hand it over.
Tell us where the property is and what state it is in. We will come back with a scope, a fee and a first-month plan — and we will schedule the call at a time that is reasonable where you actually live.
Talk to us about management
Mention your timezone in the message and we will call in your working hours.
What owners abroad ask.
Rent is collected on a structured schedule with written follow-up and escalation, then transferred to your NRO account along with a monthly statement. You are told at day five if something has not arrived, not at day thirty-five when it has become a problem.
Rent paid to a non-resident owner falls under Section 195, and the deduction obligation sits with the tenant rather than with you. We write the requirement, the rate and the obligation to furnish Form 16A explicitly into the rental agreement, and we coordinate with your chartered accountant. Where your actual liability is lower, a Section 197 lower-deduction certificate is worth applying for — we will flag it, though the filing is your CA's work.
Not always. If you can sign the agreement yourself, a POA is not strictly necessary. It becomes genuinely useful for registration appointments and anything needing physical presence at a government office. If you do execute one, keep the powers narrow and specific to letting — a general POA over property grants far more authority than this arrangement needs.
A monthly statement whether or not anything happened, periodic inspection reports with dated photographs, and an immediate message for anything that needs a decision or costs money. Communication is timed to your timezone, not ours.
The condition audit we do at onboarding — dated photographs of every room — is what makes a damage claim enforceable rather than a dispute about memory. Deductions are assessed against that record at exit and settled from the deposit, with the workings shared with both sides.
Mostly the US, UK, UAE, Singapore and Australia, which reflects Whitefield's ownership base. Practically it means we are used to working across timezones and to the documentation patterns each of those situations brings.
