Why we Indians don’t trust ‘brokers’ (from a tenant’s perspective) 1) Brokers unnecessarily hype the rent (like he told an example where ₹95k ask went for ₹1.20L) 2) Since the brokers are not regulated, most of the tier A cities have goons or rogue people working as ‘brokers’ 3) Society/Apartment management committee or residents becomes the broker for the same society. 4) Even if you contact the owners directly but some brokers will pressurise to pay brokerage. 5) There’s a repetitive yearly brokerage rule which makes tenancy difficult especially in Mumbai.

He is a known face in this Industry and if such a person talks like this, not sure why the real estate brokers even exist. 2% brokerage in this digital era for just showing the property, crazy.
It's not that only buyers can give brokers grief. Mine was the opposite experience. I recently sold a small flat in Mumbai. The broker who also earns a commission from the buyer decided to give the buyer my house keys so that he could do some Dussera ceremony in it without my knowledge. It was absurd as the buyer had just made a small token payment. Luckily I found out what happened behind my back. I was advised by my lawyer to take the keys back and change the locks. In the UK, it's against the law to have the same broker represent the buyer and the seller to avoid a conflict of interest. High time some rule of this type is also adopted by the Indian Govt.
Ravi’s sir style of working in a country like India is game changer. Very difficult dealing with Desi mentality.
Being in the real estate market for 4 years, everything Ravi says aligns well with my experience. It's a wild west and there is no regulating authority to look after this issues.

Best podcast I've ever seen about real estate market , thankyou so much for bringing this kind content to us ❤
I dont think these folks add any value and take a cut from both buyer and seller which doesn't make sense. Ideally the buyer shouldn't be paying any commission. Its time to formalize this industry too and bring it under the regulatory ambit. Also the whole process should be made transparent with the transaction being managed by lawyers/firms whose responsibility will be to verify titles,kyc, identities, structural checks etc etc. The sale price of all properties should be freely available. It will eventually happen. Its shameful that even basic things like these had to left until 70 yrs.

The most frustrating part is even after paying broker the lease aggreement is 11 months. Which means more than a months of rent is paid on brolerage. Its sad. There is no long term lease like other countries
I am not an real estate agent but a buyer and I listened till that doctor's story. He was just trying to save some money which he earned by his hard work and he was doing it right in my opinion. I would do the same and I know 99% of Indians will do the same. We go to multiple shops before buying anything.

Indeed, it is a prevalent issue in our country-lack of integrity. Consider the scenario of dedicating an entire month to work diligently at your current job or business, only to be denied the rightful remuneration for your efforts because your employer is trying to save his hard earned money! Going to multiple shops is not equivalent to purchasing a property through an estate agent who offers kickbacks instead of staying loyal to the agent who initially introduced you to the project and assisted in narrowing down your options based on a thorough understanding of your specific requirements.

@@youtubeaddict3041 I appreciate your perspective. It appears that a significant number of real estate agents resort to time-tested strategies, such as fostering a sense of urgency or eliciting fear of missing out (FOMO). These tactics may be employed in response to their inability to offer unique or superior professional services, hence their reliance on such overused methods that nonetheless remain effective. When I previously mentioned a lack of integrity, I intended for it to encompass both parties, including the agents themselves.

indeed we go to multiple shops before buying anything but if you get an experience where one shopkeeper is honest and and upfront then we still stay and buy from that shop even if it costs a bit more for sake of sincerity and genuine attitude. after one such experience it someone again coz for cheaper deal then there is definitely lack of integrity and respect.

@mackisbrocklesnar bro property is not something that someone buys frequently, it's once or twice a lifetime or maybe little more. Tell me one thing if one customer is giving you 7 crore and other customer is giving you 8 crore so to whom will you sell the property? All integrity will be gone when you see the comission.

Lovely interview..a eye opner into the real estate brokers life.wishing the Guest success always.
Very informative and well structured interview.
Would be interested to know more insights on these three: 1. Your qualification process on HNIs and middle class clients. 2. Your business model/process/strategy in metro and non-metro cities. 3. Is it a good bait to buy or rent (not rent out) a property at this time given that several "influencers" via social media says to go for rent?
Awesome Video Ravi Lot of valuable insight into the world of Realtors and how this profession flourishes against all odds. A very noble profession we are all in and yet get treated badly sometimes - but it takes all kind of people to make this world 😃
6% is the highest. It’s between 4-6%. Also the agents to split the total commission to 50/50 between smaller’s agent and buyer’s agent (if there is a buyer’s agent involved). All agents again pay some % to their broker.
Back in the 80s he purchased it for 50K in Juhu. The best salaries at the time of was Rs.100 to 150. So if you adjust the inflation, the value is pretty much same. I am not saying the decision was wrong to buy those properties but my point is, 50K then to spend back then was similar to spendinf 10-20 Crores
I think the approach followed by Mr Ravi is okay with top notch clients but protocols somehow trespass in case of middle income group reality requirements.
I really like his videos.. I pray to god that you will never get cheated in your business.. more power to you RK

99% of business in India happens on trust except when Corporates are involved. "No group, no associations" is a common thing across. Heck, even unions don't exist in most manufacturing plants nowadays. If you are complaining about these things, you probably chose the wrong profession. Head back to the US.

A customer has full right to enquire and do his own research properly before buying anything especially a property/asset which is obviously expensive. He is spending crores, he isn’t obligated to give u a deal just because you are trying to close the sale. If his loss happens in that property due to some reason, would u take the responsibility to cover his losses? You aren’t a businessman if you can’t understand a customer and want to close a deal forcefully where he isn’t fully satisfied.

Nobroker disrupted the indian mindset. Hear their tagline "brokerage kyun dena " listen it and embed it in your mind. The moment u meet a agent u will say " wont pay brokerage" . This has spiralled down where owner side commission has gone down. Not every owner is looking for "sole mandate ". Those days are gone where " samosa waale uncle " used to run this business. Unfortunately the old ways are still being continued.
