For Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), investing in property back home is both an emotional and strategic decision. Whether you’re looking to buy your dream home, secure a rental property, or diversify your portfolio, HomeSeekersIndia is here to guide you at every step.
Here’s a complete roadmap to help NRIs make informed and confident real estate decisions in India.
As per the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), NRIs, Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs), and Overseas Citizens of India (OCIs) are eligible to buy most types of residential and commercial properties in India.
However, agricultural land, farmhouses, and plantation properties can only be purchased with special permissions from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
Research the location, builder reputation, property appreciation trends, and connectivity.
HomeSeekersIndia assists with:
Verified property listings
Virtual tours and video walkthroughs
Comparative market analysis
Our experts help you shortlist properties that match your investment goals and budget.
Before finalizing any deal, ensure all property documents are verified:
Title deed & ownership documents
Land use and building approvals
Encumbrance certificate (to ensure it’s free from legal disputes)
RERA registration
At HomeSeekersIndia, we partner with trusted legal professionals to review and verify all paperwork for you.
NRIs can buy property through:
NRE (Non-Resident External) or NRO (Non-Resident Ordinary) bank accounts
Home loans from Indian banks (many offer NRI-specific home loan options)
Tip: All payments must be made in Indian rupees through normal banking channels — not in foreign currency or traveler’s cheques.
If you cannot be present in India for registration or documentation, you can appoint a Power of Attorney (PoA) holder.
This authorized person can sign documents, handle registration, and manage transactions on your behalf.
Our team helps you prepare and register a valid PoA easily.
Once your property is finalized:
Pay stamp duty and registration charges as per the state laws
Register the property at the local sub-registrar’s office
Taxation Note:
Rental income or capital gains from property are taxable in India. NRIs can also benefit from Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA) with several countries.
Owning property from overseas can be challenging — that’s where HomeSeekersIndia’s NRI Property Management Services come in.
We help you with:
Tenant search and rental agreements
Property maintenance and inspections
Rent collection and regular reporting
You can relax while we take care of your investment.
Buying property in India as an NRI is easier and safer than ever before — as long as you have the right guidance and trustworthy partners.
At HomeSeekersIndia, our goal is to simplify every step, ensuring your investment journey is smooth, transparent, and rewarding.
