When a flat in a housing society is rented out, three parties are involved whether they acknowledge it or not: the landlord who owns it, the tenant who lives in it, and the society that manages the building. Problems start when one of them is left out — a society that doesn’t know who lives in a flat, a tenant who doesn’t know the building rules, a landlord who assumes maintenance is the tenant’s problem.
What each party needs
- The landlord needs a verified tenant, rent on time, the flat returned in good condition and the society’s NOC where required.
- The tenant needs a verified owner, a clear agreement, a protected deposit, working repairs and permission to move in.
- The society needs to know who is living in each flat, a police verification record, dues paid, and a point of contact for problems.
Putting it on record
- Verify everyone: tenant, landlord and, where relevant, the society itself.
- Sign a tripartite agreement when the society requires one, so the society’s conditions sit inside the tenancy terms.
- Get the society’s move-in approval and NOC before keys change hands.
- Record the flat’s condition at move-in, and share maintenance responsibilities in writing.
- At move-out, repeat the inspection and get the society’s move-out approval.
How UNETRA does this
UNETRA gives each party its own portal around one shared record: the landlord and tenant sign the agreement, the society approves the move-in and issues NOCs from the society portal, and deposits, rent, maintenance, inspections and approvals all attach to the same tenancy. Everyone sees the status that concerns them, and nobody has to rely on memory when something goes wrong.
