Online portals with a database of over 7.5 lakh properties, not only suggest enough options to choose from, but also present an insight into the growing and upcoming realty markets. They also help in providing a check on all the basic facilities like locality, transport facilities, schools, hospitals, markets, sufficient water and electricity supplies, which helps a buyer make up his mind better.

Property portals also help NRIs deal with the hesitation of investing in Indian properties; NRIs have a perception that Indian developers follow unethical practices that result in unsafe investments.

Property portals have a dedicated customer care team, which follows a rigorous verification process to try and minimise incorrect information that may come with the listings. If need be, the executives call up the seller to verify the rates, specifications etc, so that a richer experience for the property seekers can be ensured. In fact, with the introduction of an online property rating mechanism, which is a user-generated rating system, individuals can rate properties based on their interaction with the sellers, which will help the property seeker a great deal.
