Question 9

Why should I get an advisor to help me buy a property in Bangalore?

Accepted Answer

When we want to invest our money, we can take tips from social media, influencers, friends or family members, but it’s better to get professional advice from a financial wealth manager.

Today, the builders & brokers have been selling real estate for decades, while you’re buying it for the first time. It’s not a level playing field. We’re here to tip it in your favour instead.

We believe in a seller’s market like Bangalore, you need a subject matter expert to guide you. With 17+ years of wisdom on your side, be rest assured, you have great company.

90% of the information we analyse is available in the public domain. We aggregate, interpret & enhance it for you so you don’t have to. It’s like doing fundamental analysis for stocks — anyone can read the balance sheets, but you also need to know the overall industry dynamics to take an informed bet.

Question 10

What is the history of Propsoch?

Accepted Answer

We started Propsoch more than 2 years ago. In the first year, we only collected & analysed data for 500+ projects in Bangalore to build India’s most exhaustive real-estate dictionary. Think of it as the USA’s version of MLS. After that, we were confident we can help people like you buy homes with utmost transparency and clarity.

Founded by Ashish Acharya, an industry veteran with 17+ years of experience in assessing land risks at Godrej and Anarock, we are a team armed with expertise across geographic, architectural, legal and financial factors.

We aim to bring transparency in the opaque world of real estate and call out both the pros & cons when the rest of the world only shows you the glossy, rosy picture. Our core purpose is to bring genuine insights to empower you to make an informed decision.

Question 11

What do you mean by buyer-centric advisory?

Accepted Answer

Every broker or real estate consultant in the market today acts as an extended marketing arm of the builder. They tend to prioritise quick sales and conversions above what’s the most optimal path for you. Usually, they work in selected neighbourhoods, or with a specific set of builders and try to limit your discovery to the options in their portfolio by sharing a rosy picture and sharing only what the builder wants you to know.

Try asking the local brokers / consultants about the cons of the project — either they will hesitate, highlight minor yellow flags or worse, say there are none and withhold key information. That is what we call a seller-centric player.

A buyer centric advisory is designed to empower you, the homebuyer, with information and tools you need to make an informed decision. We will highlight the pros and cons of the location, the developer, the project, the floor plan, the pricing, the legal approvals by analysing & comparing them on over 80 data points with other projects in the same neighbourhood so you get a complete, exhaustive and transparent look at each project.

We will tell you if the project is a no-go, if there is no supply matching your requirements or if you need to wait it out a little longer. We’re comfortable making these statements as we believe in doing right by you, the buyer. This is what we call a buyer-centric advisory.

Question 12

Which type of properties do you help with?

Accepted Answer

We are 100% confident that we can help you evaluate and buy or invest in a RERA approved apartment, villa or a plot directly from the builder. We also help you identify EOI opportunities that are a safe bet & have great return potential.

If your requirements are not met in the primary market supply, we will activate our network of other brokers to get you options from the resale market. Please note, that this will be our last resort as the transaction is not standardised and messy. Also, in this case you will be required to pay a brokerage of 1% + GST.

We don’t advise our customers on independent residential buildings / floors or commercial projects yet.

Question 13

Why do I need to conduct my own legal due diligence if the project is approved by major banks?

Accepted Answer

A legal opinion on RERA only declares the ongoing litigations on the project, it does not conclude that the project is free of litigations. Similarly, a bank’s approval

Question 14

Question 15

Question 17

Can you describe Guided Home Buying in detail?

Accepted Answer

We have divided the home-buying journey into five stages:

Discovery: This is where we understand your needs in incredible detail so we can really personalise your journey. Usually it takes ~10 minutes for you to share the details with us.

Shortlisting: We will curate a list of projects that closely match your preferences & discuss pros & cons of the neighbourhood, developer, project & its floor plans so you’re well armed with information before visiting the site.

Site Visits: Our architects will schedule and accompany you to visit the shortlisted projects with a checklist of tradeoffs to review. We will get the exact availability & quoted price of the units while inspecting the location, the approach road and the project along with you.

Deep Dive: Once we know the exact units you like, we analyse the floor plans in detail, check ventilation, lighting, vastu, pricing and a lot more so we can see the complete picture and identify the levers we need to either reject it or negotiate a great deal for you.

Booking: We will help you negotiate, connect with loan & financing experts, navigate the payment terms, and seal the deal for a property you can really call home. But that’s not all, we will help you after you book the property too.

Question 18

Why are site visits not the first step in the process?

Accepted Answer

During site visits, the model flats and sales processes are designed to overwhelm you with rosy pictures of a dreamy life.

Visiting a new site and imagining what your new home could look like is indeed exciting and a dopamine boosting process, but it also prevents you from assessing the pros and cons rationally.

We remind our customers to not let emotions drive investment decisions. Even if you’re buying it for your own use, you’re investing your hard earned money and plan to invest a good few years of your life in this home.

Also, both you and us will waste a lot of time on the road visiting & evaluating irrelevant projects which doesn’t help. Hence, site visits are scheduled after we’re aligned on the possible good fits for you and we have understood the challenges or trade offs required.

Question 19

What are the timelines once I sign up?

Question 31

Why do I need to conduct my own legal due diligence if the project is approved by major banks?

Accepted Answer

Banks mitigate their risk by verifying title and encumbrances to secure loan recovery, but their primary checks focus on protecting themselves, not buyers. The banks will come after the borrowers (i.e homeowners) in case of default.  Independent due diligence ensures full legal clarity for your protection.
