How does bengaluru.rent work?

Tap any location on the map and drop your rent anonymously. Other renters see real prices in their area. If you're flat-hunting, drop a seeker pin with your budget — we email you when matching listings appear within 2.5km.

Is bengaluru.rent free? Do I need to sign up?

Yes, free for everyone. No signup, no login, no app required. We don't charge tenants or owners and have no plans to. Server costs are paid by the founder.

How is bengaluru.rent different from NoBroker, 99acres, or MagicBricks?

Those sites show broker-quoted listings — often inflated. bengaluru.rent shows real rents shared by actual current and past tenants. No signup wall, no broker fees, no ads. Direct match between seeker and owner via email, zero middleman.

Is my data anonymous? Will my landlord know I shared my rent?

Yes, anonymous. Your IP address is never displayed. The pin shows only the rent amount, BHK, and approximate location (rounded to ~100m for privacy). Your landlord cannot trace it back to you.

What information do you collect?

Rent amount, approximate location, BHK, and optional society and comment. For seeker pins or listings we also collect email and phone — used only to email matched contacts, never displayed publicly. No cookies, no cross-site tracking, no data sold.

How do you prevent fake or inflated rents?

Five layers: (1) rent must fall within a plausible range for the BHK, (2) statistical outliers (3x above/below area median) are flagged daily, (3) community reports auto-hide pins after 3 strikes, (4) IP rate limits and junk-email/junk-phone filters at submission, (5) report-bomb detection auto-flags coordinated spam.
