What Property Services Do NRIs Really Need in India?

Hey! If you’re a teenager whose family lives abroad (or maybe you’re an NRI yourself one day), you probably know that owning a house or flat back in India sounds cool… until the problems start. Parents get stressed about leaking roofs, late rent, or random uncles asking to “just look after the place.” Trust me, it’s a headache!

Good news? There are super helpful property services companies that take care of everything for you. Let’s talk about them in the simplest way possible.

Why Do NRIs Need Property Services?
