# 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](/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](/pricing).

## 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.
