NRI Property Management in Bangalore

NRI property management in Bangalore is the running of a non-resident owner's flat or house by a local team: tenant search, e-stamped rent agreements, rent collection, repairs, khata and tax records. 66 MG Road assigns one vetted property manager to your Bangalore property and bills every task as a visible line item. It is part of our NRI property management service across six Indian cities.

What we handle in Bangalore

Nine lines of work, one accountable manager:

Core property management. Scheduled inspections, key custody on record, one named contact.
Maintenance and repairs. Vetted vendors, billed at actuals with receipts. Dated photos before and after every job.
Documentation and legal. E-stamped rent agreements, registration where required, notices, dispute support.
Records and reporting. Khata papers, agreements, and receipts in a document vault. A statement every month.
Bills and utilities. BBMP property tax, association dues, BESCOM, BWSSB. Paid on time, filed.
Tenant and rental management. Listing, screening, agreement, rent collection, renewal, exit settlement.
Sale and purchase. On-ground representation when you buy or sell, including the e-khata work a sale now demands.
Airbnb and short stay. Setup and operation where the association and the law permit.
Tax and repatriation. Rent records, TDS tracking, and the paperwork your CA needs.

How it works

Step 1: Handover. You share documents and keys. Your manager records a dated photo and video baseline and files it in your vault.

Step 2: The manager runs it. Tenants, rent, repairs, dues. You set a spend floor. Anything above it waits for your approval.

Step 3: You see everything. Monthly itemized statement. Dated photos and video at every handover, repair, and inspection.

What it costs

More than a lone Bangalore agent. The difference buys you accountability. No commission on rent. No markup on vendor bills: repairs at actuals, receipts attached. Every rupee a line item. The fee structure is on our pricing page.

Why Bangalore owners abroad lose money

The broker disappears after the deposit clears. Renewal time comes and his number rings out.
The relative stops responding. Your flat near Sarjapur Road becomes a favour nobody wants to track.
Repairs get billed twice. A borewell motor fixed in June is "fixed" again in October. Receipts and photos kill the second bill.
Rent arrives late and shrinks. Deductions with no paper. You are in Singapore and cannot chase.
Khata paperwork stalls a sale. Bangalore sales now run on e-khata. Owners who never digitized their records discover this at the worst moment.
Vacant flats decay. Dust, seepage, and association arrears compound while nobody looks.

Bangalore specifics every NRI landlord should know

E-khata is now the gate for property transactions. Since 1 October 2024, BBMP requires an e-khata for property registrations within its limits. Sale, transfer, and registration run on the digital record. We get your khata converted and filed before you need it.
The 11-month e-stamp norm. Karnataka rent agreements run on e-stamp paper issued through SHCIL and authorised centres; physical stamp paper was discontinued. Agreements under 12 months do not require registration at the Sub-Registrar, which is why the 11-month agreement is the Bangalore standard. Agreements of 12 months or more must be registered.
Where NRI demand sits. Market trackers name Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, Hebbal, and Koramangala among the localities drawing NRI buyers, with tenant demand anchored by the IT corridors and the metro extension to Whitefield.
Yields lead the big cities. Industry trackers placed Bengaluru's gross residential yield near 4.45 percent in early 2024, among the highest of India's large cities.

FAQ

Do I need to be in Bangalore to sign a rent agreement? No. Karnataka agreements run on e-stamp paper and can be executed with digital signing. We draft, e-stamp, and file the agreement in your vault.

Is an 11-month agreement enough in Bangalore? For most residential lets, yes. Agreements under 12 months do not require Sub-Registrar registration in Karnataka. If you want a longer term, we handle the registration.

What is e-khata and do I need it? It is the digital khata record BBMP requires for property registrations since October 2024. If you plan to sell, transfer, or refinance, you need it. We run the conversion.

My khata is a B khata. Can you still manage the property? Yes. We manage the rental and keep your records in order, and we tell you in writing what a B khata means for any future sale. No sugarcoating.

Which Bangalore areas rent fastest? Trackers point to the IT corridors: Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, the Outer Ring Road stretch, and Hebbal. Demand follows the tech parks.

How do I verify a repair happened in my flat? Dated photos and video before and after, plus the vendor receipt, attached to the line item on your monthly statement.
