New Delhi, November 02,  2023 :  Housing.com, India’s preeminent digital real estate platform, has decided to make a strategic investment in EASILOAN, a fintech start-up focusing on digitizing the home loan journey. Although the specific investment sum remains undisclosed, this partnership aims to lay the foundation for Housing.com‘s plans to create India’s largest digital home loan origination platform.

Owned by REA India, which also controls PropTiger.com and Makaan.com, Housing.com has emerged as the leader in the Indian digital real estate market. REA India is a subsidiary of the global conglomerate, REA Group Ltd. (ASX: REA).

Established in 2021 by Pramod Kathuria, Easiloan is a digital home loan marketplace offering personalized, end-to-end home loan solutions through collaborations with over 20 banks across India. The platform employs customer profile-based matchmaking, enabling users to compare, select, and process home loans seamlessly. Easiloan is strategically positioned for exponential customer acquisition through partnerships with brokers, developers, and other digital channels.

This partnership is designed to capitalize on Housing.com‘s market-leading digital presence, while simultaneously broadening the reach of mortgage products to its esteemed network of brokers and developers. “This symbiotic collaboration is not just a value addition to our seller customers but also augments user engagement on our platform and offers an avenue for enhanced revenue generation,” said the company in a statement.

Mr. Dhruv Agarwala, Group CEO of Housing.com, PropTiger.com, and Makaan.com, said, “Housing.com  is committed to offering its customers and consumers an exhaustive suite of real estate services, and this partnership with Easiloan marks a seminal step in that direction. Mortgages are an organic expansion within the digital real estate sphere, driven by the large customer base that we have cultivated on our platform.”

Mr. Agarwala further added, “Technological advancement and the Indian government’s commitment to digitalization in the lending sector will profoundly transform the home loans landscape in the forthcoming years, and we are committed to pioneering this revolution.”

With estimates showing a 16% growth in the overall home loan portfolio from December 2021 to December 2022, reaching a staggering $108.14 billion in disbursed loans in 2022 alone, housing credit in India is set for significant further growth in the coming years.

“We are delighted to partner strategically with Housing.com,” remarked Mr. Pramod Kathuria, Founder & CEO of Easiloan.com. “With the Indian fintech industry projected to be worth $150 billion by 2025 and the real estate market projected to reach $1 trillion by 2030, we can collaboratively define new milestones in both areas.”

Earlier, Easiloan has raised seed funding from Tomorrow Capital in Sept’21 and demonstrated strong traction in terms of customer acquisition, loan disbursement and expansion in Mumbai, Pune, and Bengaluru.

Ms. Rohini Prakash, CEO, Tomorrow Capital added, “We are proud to have backed Pramod in his journey to build Easiloan, and truly believe that it is a gamechanger for the mortgage space in India. The Easiloan brand uses a tech-first approach to deliver a superior home loan experience, from discovery to disbursement, for its customers. It continues to provide unparalleled benefits to multiple stakeholders including real estate developers and agents. We are glad to welcome Housing.com onboard in scaling the Easiloan platform further.”

RBI Holds Repo Rate at 5.25%; Realty Industry Sees Stability as Growth Driver The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% and retain its ‘neutral’ monetary policy stance in the third bi-monthly Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting of FY27 has elicited a measured response from the real estate industry. While the sector had hoped for a rate cut to further enhance home loan affordability and stimulate housing demand, industry leaders believe the RBI’s decision reflects a balanced approach amid elevated global uncertainties, volatile energy prices, and inflationary concerns. They noted that stable interest rates will continue to support buyer confidence, provide financial predictability for developers, and sustain the momentum witnessed in the residential real estate market. Mr. Kamlesh Thakur, President, NAREDCO Maharashtra “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% while retaining a neutral stance reflects a prudent approach amid global uncertainties and evolving inflation dynamics. While the industry was hopeful of a rate cut, policy stability itself provides confidence to both developers and homebuyers. With borrowing costs remaining unchanged, housing demand is expected to continue its momentum, particularly in the mid-income and premium segments. The upward revision of India’s GDP growth projection to 6.7% underscores the resilience of the domestic economy. Going forward, as inflation moderates in line with the RBI’s expectations, there could be room for a more accommodative monetary policy. A future rate cut would further improve housing affordability, strengthen buyer sentiment, and accelerate investments across the residential and commercial real estate sectors.” Mr. Kaushal Agarwal, Chairman, The Guardians Real Estate Advisory “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged brings continuity and predictability to the market at a time when global geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures continue to create uncertainty. Stable interest rates ensure that home loan EMIs remain broadly unchanged, allowing prospective buyers to make informed purchasing decisions without concerns over rising borrowing costs. The Indian housing market has demonstrated remarkable resilience over the past few years, supported by strong end-user demand, rising incomes, and growing confidence in the economy. With GDP growth projected at 6.7%, we expect housing demand to remain healthy across key micro-markets.” Mr. Shilpin Tater, Managing Director, Superb Realty “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate is a balanced move considering the current global economic environment and domestic inflation outlook. Policy stability is particularly important for the real estate sector as it enables developers to plan projects with greater financial certainty while allowing buyers to benefit from stable lending rates. Demand for quality residential & commercial developments, especially in well-connected urban locations, is expected to remain robust. We remain optimistic that supportive monetary measures in the future could further strengthen investment activity.” Ms. Shraddha Kedia-Agarwal, Director, Transcon Developers “The RBI has adopted a measured and responsible approach by maintaining the repo rate while closely monitoring inflationary trends and global developments. Although a rate cut would have enhanced affordability for homebuyers, the decision to maintain stability provides confidence to both consumers and developers in an uncertain macroeconomic environment. The premium and luxury housing segments continue to witness healthy demand driven by aspirational buyers and strong wealth creation, while the broader residential market remains supported by genuine end-user demand. Stable financing costs, coupled with India’s improving growth outlook, should sustain market momentum.” Mr. Dhruman Shah, Promoter, Ariha Group “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged reflects its focus on balancing growth with inflation management amidst ongoing global uncertainties. For the real estate sector, policy continuity is a positive outcome as it preserves financial stability and ensures that financing conditions remain predictable for both developers and homebuyers. Stable interest rates, combined with sustained infrastructure investments and urbanization, will continue to support residential sales.”
