Why Landlords and Tenants Shouldn't Pay a Huge Brokerage for a Lease Agreement

And how GharConnect.in is changing the game with a 10% digital solution

When it comes to renting a home in India, one of the most frustrating parts for both landlords and tenants is the high brokerage fee—often equivalent to one full month's rent, sometimes even more. For a process that involves minimal effort from many traditional brokers, this cost is hard to justify.

Let's break it down:

1. Traditional Brokers Charge a Lot for Minimal Work

Most brokers help you find a tenant or landlord, get the lease signed, and then disappear. In many cases, they:

  • Don't assist with documentation.
  • Don't ensure property readiness.
  • Don't even digitize the agreement.

Yet they charge a full month's rent as commission.

2. Lease Agreements Are Now Digital and Easier Than Ever

Thanks to digital platforms, creating a legally valid lease agreement can now be done in a few clicks. You don't need to run to notaries, stamp vendors, or government offices.

Platforms like GharConnect.in handle:

  • Digital identity verification
  • Legally binding e-agreements
  • E-stamping (where required)
  • Secure storage of agreements

All online, all trackable, and completely legitimate.

3. Paying 100% Brokerage Just Doesn't Add Up

Let's say your monthly rent is ₹30,000. A traditional broker would charge ₹30,000 as commission—without offering any digital service, legal assurance, or document storage.

At GharConnect, we only charge 10% of one month's rent—₹3,000 in this case—and offer complete digital onboarding, agreement creation, and verification.

You get better service, faster turnaround, and legal peace of mind—for one-tenth the cost.
