The Indian real estate sector is growing 20 percent annually and contributes seven percent to India’s GDP. The credit for this majorly goes to brokers who are involved in around 70-80 percent of the deals. Unfortunately, most of the brokers especially the local brokers don’t get an adequate platform, wherein they can easily engage with the customers. This also makes property seeker’s search for property a daunting task. Enhancing the ecosystem of this bitty system, Brongo after doing background screening of brokers lists authentic hyper local brokers with rating & reviews on its App. On the flipside, it also protects the customer’s identity like their contacts with cloud calling (click to call on the app), hence enables customers to engage with brokers without any fear. As the Brongo’s root word 'iungo' meaning connect in Latin, Brongo is India's first real estate broker aggregator that connects property seekers with hyperlocal brokers in real-time within 60 seconds for resential & business property
seekers. By providing all the leads and a confirmed brokerage on its Broker app, Brongo also empowers local brokers to evade the need for an office space.
