Searching and Buying

Start from the search page. Enter a city, sector or locality, then narrow down with the filters on the left: budget, bedrooms, property type, and whether you are buying, renting or leasing.

Two things worth using:

• Draw on the map to search an exact area rather than a named locality.
• Save the search once it is right, so you do not rebuild it every visit.

They are three different numbers for the same flat, and the gap between them is often 30% or more.

• Carpet area — the floor you can actually walk on, inside the walls. This is the honest number.
• Built-up area — carpet area plus the walls and balcony.
• Super area — built-up area plus your share of common space: lifts, lobbies, stairs, sometimes the clubhouse.

A price quoted per square foot on super area always looks lower than the same flat quoted on carpet area. When you compare two properties, make sure you are comparing the same measure. Under RERA, a builder must state carpet area.

Tap the heart on any listing to save it. Everything you save appears under Saved.

You can group saves into collections — one per area you are considering, or one per family member's opinion. A collection can be shared, which is usually easier than sending ten links.

Saving requires an account, because the list is yours.

Open the listing and use the enquiry button. You will need to be signed in, so the seller knows the enquiry came from a verified phone number.

Your enquiry goes to our team, who pass it to the seller and help arrange a viewing. There is no instant-booking calendar — visits are arranged by a person, because sellers' availability is not something a form can know.

If nobody has come back to you within a working day, tell us and we will chase it.

Yes, but through a person rather than a calendar widget.

Send an enquiry on the listing and say when you are free. Our team confirms with the seller and comes back to you with a time. Most visits are arranged within a day or two.

Bring photo ID. Many societies in the tricity will not let a visitor past the gate without it.

It means our team checked the listing before it went live: that the seller's phone number is real and belongs to them, that the photos are of the property described, and that the basic details are consistent with the documents shown to us.

It is not a legal opinion. A verified badge does not say the title is clear, that there are no dues, or that the sale will complete. Those are the questions a legal verification answers, and they need an advocate reading the actual papers.

Treat the badge as "this listing is genuine", not "this property is safe to buy".

Because the seller asked for it, and we think that is reasonable.

Some sellers do not want the exact address of an occupied home published before they know who is asking. For those listings we show the correct locality and a pin placed near the property rather than on it.

The exact address is shared once an enquiry is genuine and the seller agrees. The listing tells you when a location is approximate — it is never silently moved.

It stops appearing in search.

Sellers tell us when a property is gone, and our team also re-confirms older listings periodically rather than waiting to be told. A listing that cannot be re-confirmed is taken down.

If you find something that is already sold or let, please report the listing from the listing page. That is the fastest way for us to catch it, and it genuinely helps the next person.
