Chennai: Housing.com recently announced the launch of ‘Housing Edge’, its full stack rental and allied services platform, through which the company enables digitisation of multiple services which tenants and landlords can use, without leaving the comfort of their homes.
A press release said, these services for both, owners and tenants, include packages like online rent payment, online rental agreements, tenant verification, packing and moving, furniture rental, home interiors and home services.
“Through Housing Edge, we have attempted to make the end-to-end process of renting and moving into a home simple and hassle free,” said Dhruv Agarwala, Group CEO, Housing.com, Makaan.com and PropTiger.com.
Mani Rangarajan, Group COO, said, “Our vision is to provide innovative products and services that would have a strong market impact and help develop the overall eco-system. In pursuit of that objective, we have launched simplified packages to provide professional assistance to both homeowners and home seekers.”
After the company decided to start the online rent agreement feature on Housing Edge in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic that imposed tough restrictions on movement, services have been rendered in over 80+ cities across 14 states. Through the Pay Rent feature on Housing Edge, which it launched simultaneously for all platforms including Android, IOS and web, the company facilitated more than 2,00,000 transactions in the past seven months and has processed pay rent requests exceeding Rs 600 crore.
In an attempt to further widen the scope of its services, the company has tied up with brands such as Urban Company, RentoMojo, Livspace, HappyLocate and AuthBridge to provide renters assisted services on Housing Edge at attractive rates.
