P ropTiger.com is an end-to-end solution portal, which guides home buyers right from the start of their home

search to the very end. One can judge the extent of its vast services and guidance by the fact that it allows one to browse through more than 1,44,000 verified real estate properties with accurate lowdown on amenities, neighborhoods and cities, and genuine pictures. Customers can shortlist their favorite homes and PropTiger further takes care for arranging site visits. However, its work does not end here, and there is a lot more to offer. It then assists one with home loans and property registrations.

PropTiger not only makes the experience of searching for accurate information and then making the decision an easy and exciting task, but it also turns the customer’s investment for buying a home into his/her safest and the best deal at PropTiger.com.

THE BEGINNINGPropTiger.com was founded in 2011 by Dhruv Agarwala, Kartik Varma, and Prashan Agarwal. The business received $2 million in funding in its first year, and in 2012 received an additional $5 million in funding from SAIF Partners and Accel Partners. In 2014, NewsCorp announced that they had acquired 25% stake in PropTiger.com for $30 million and in 2015, PropTiger.com entered the secondary market property deal space in Bangalore. In April 2015, PropTiger acquired Bangalore-based digital interaction design start-up OoBI. In June 2015, News Corporation raised its stake in PropTiger.com to 30%.

Headquartered in the National Capital Region (NCR) with 18 offices

THE OPERATIONSPropTiger.com operates by listing residential real estate property, classified as new, resale, under construction or upcoming apartments, villas and plots. Properties within an area are compared according to their livability and safety scores, and users have the ability to filter out properties based on price variations and readiness. PropTiger.com also allows users to visualize properties in 4D, see and sort properties near them, and visualize the future development trajectory of localities.

PropTiger.com is the first Indian real estate portal to launch a feature, City Master Plan, which helps users to visualize the master plan of cities on the map. Using City Master Plan, prospective home buyers can visualize planned flyovers, proposed metro lines and future land use on maps of Indian cities.

PropInsight, another feature, allows users to see properties in a five kilometer radius by pointing their Android phone in any direction.
