Helping buyers since
Based in Indiranagar
We start with your requirement, not our inventory.
Most agents open with what they have on their books. We open with you: how your household runs, the commute, the schools, your long-term plans and how long you expect to stay.
We work only with builders who have a record of handing over on time, and our team visits the site before we suggest you commit. Every project's RERA status is shown to you plainly: registered projects carry their number, and anything still at pre-launch is labelled as such.
A clear no is worth more than a polite yes. If a project doesn't suit your plans, your commute or your timeline, we'll tell you to walk away, even if it means no sale for us.
More about usOur ruleNo builder quotas, no pressure. You pay us nothing: our fee comes from the developer, and it never decides what we recommend.
Who we work with
Different buyers, different questions
A family choosing its next home, an investor and a buyer living abroad each need a different conversation. Select your situation to explore our tailored advisory approach.
Tailored For Primary Residences
Finding a home your family loves, with zero hidden surprises.
Buying a home is one of life's most meaningful milestones. We protect your peace of mind by eliminating high-risk projects and focusing strictly on builders with proven delivery records.
The Worry
Hidden title flaws, builder delivery delays, deviations from sanctioned plans, and deceptive super-built-up claims.
How Keycroft Helps
We verify RERA status, inspect the site in person, cross-check carpet areas, and assist all the way through registration and key handover.
Advisory Roadmap
- Commute, school & lifestyle requirement interview
- Shortlist of 3–4 vetted projects from reputable builders
- In-person accompanied site inspections
- Negotiation, agreement review, and Sub-Registrar support
Tailored For Wealth & Capital Growth
Real numbers, rental yields, and clear resale liquidity.
We don't sell hype or speculative brochures. We evaluate rental demand drivers (tech parks, metro line extensions, arterial roads), actual comparable sales, and builder execution certainty.
The Worry
Inflated developer projections, stagnant rental yields, poor tenant absorption, and illiquid exits when trying to sell.
How Keycroft Helps
Ground-reality yields (3%–4.5%), comparable registration figures, infrastructure timeline analysis, and pre-launch pricing advantages.
Investment Pillars
- Micro-market rental yield modeling
- Upcoming metro & peripheral road catalyst mapping
- Pre-launch allocation with builder price protection
- Exit strategy guidance & resale assistance
Tailored For Cross-Border Buyers
Your trusted representative on the ground in Bengaluru.
Buying property while living in the US, UK, Middle East or Singapore shouldn't require flying back and forth. We provide complete transparency with live video site walkthroughs and legal diligence.
The Worry
Inability to inspect physical construction, FEMA/NRE transaction confusion, unvetted developers, and Power of Attorney risks.
How Keycroft Helps
High-resolution video walkthroughs, specific Power of Attorney drafting guidance, NRE/NRO remittance coordination, and complete remote closing.
NRI Remote Protocol
- Live video site visits & surroundings inspection
- Independent lawyer title & khata verification
- Specific GPA drafting & Indian consulate attestation support
- Handover inspection and key custody support

How we help you buy and invest
From understanding what you need and shortlisting homes to site visits, paperwork and the day you get your keys.
Advice & shortlisting
We listen first, then shortlist three or four homes that fit your family, commute and plans, and visit them with you.
Pre-launch access
Early information on launches from builders who deliver. We advise booking only once a project is RERA-registered.
Investment guidance
Straight numbers on rental yield, likely appreciation and how easily you could sell later.
Paperwork & handover
Negotiation, home loan, sale agreement, stamp duty and registration, managed through to the day you get your keys.
Three steps, unhurried.
We take the time to understand what you need, recommend only projects we would stand behind, and stay with you until handover.

Things to know before you buy in Bengaluru
A purchase of this importance deserves clear answers. These are the questions we hear most.
Already found a property?
Send us the project name. We'll tell you what we know about the builder's delivery record and whether the project is RERA-registered.
Ask us about itHow do you choose the projects you recommend?
We start with the builder: we work only with builders who have a record of handing over on time. Then we check where the project stands with Karnataka RERA and tell you plainly, our team visits the site, and we match it to your commute, plans and priorities. For the title and legal documents, we recommend hiring an independent property lawyer before you pay a booking amount.
Do I pay you anything?
No. Our fee is paid by the developer when a sale completes, so you pay us nothing. It doesn't change what we recommend: if a project doesn't suit you, we'll still tell you to walk away.
Do you work on pre-launch projects?
Yes. Pre-launch can mean an early choice of homes and launch pricing, but until a project has a RERA number its plans, price and timeline can still change. We label these projects clearly and tell you what is confirmed and what isn't. Our advice: keep any early payment small and refundable, get its terms in writing, and don't sign a sale agreement until the project is RERA-registered.
What is the difference between A-khata and B-khata?
An A-khata property follows the approved plan and local rules, so banks will lend against it and it is easy to sell or rebuild later. A B-khata only means the municipality collects tax on it — the building may have violations or an unapproved layout. Ask for the khata type before you pay anything, and have your lawyer confirm it. Bengaluru is also moving to e-khata. Khata types explained.
What should I check before paying a booking amount?
At a minimum: the Karnataka RERA registration, the sanctioned building plan, the commencement certificate, an independent lawyer's title report, and — if the builder does not own the land outright — the joint development agreement. Ask the builder for these and have your lawyer review them before you pay anything.
Can I buy from abroad without visiting?
Yes. Many of our NRI clients never fly in. You can give a trusted person a specific Power of Attorney, pay from your NRE or NRO account, and we do live video walkthroughs and site visits for you. How it works for NRIs, or read our NRI buying guide.
How long does it take from shortlist to registration?
Usually three to five weeks: about ten days for the lawyer to review the title, one to two weeks for loan approval if you need one, and a few days to book the Sub-Registrar appointment.
