NearEstate Founders Rajesh Myakala & VenkataRamana Guddeti
The real estate industry is at a crossroads. While traditional practices still prevail, a new wave of technology-driven firms is steadily reshaping how properties are discovered, evaluated, and transacted. Among these trailblazers is Hyderabad-based PropTech startup NearEstate.in, which has recently crossed a significant milestone-listing over 1500+ properties on its immersive virtual platform, RealView360°.
This achievement comes at a time when remote property viewing and digital-first solutions are not just conveniences, but often necessities. For buyers, sellers, and investors adapting to an increasingly interconnected world, NearEstate.in's growth story exemplifies how cutting-edge technology can break down geographical barriers, streamline decision-making, and foster trust between stakeholders.
Beyond the Traditional Listing
In an era where online property listings are ubiquitous, what sets NearEstate.in apart is the RealView360° technology-a feature that transforms static images and perfunctory descriptions into a fully immersive exploration of both the property's interior and its surrounding neighborhood. Prospective buyers can "walk through" homes virtually, gaining an authentic sense of space, design, and ambiance. This isn't just a cosmetic upgrade; it's a radical rethinking of how real estate is experienced.
"With RealView360°, we wanted to offer more than just another listing," says Mr. VenkataRamana Guddeti, Founder of NearEstate.in. "It's about giving people access to property details at a depth and clarity that traditional mediums can't match. By hitting this 1500+ property milestone, we've proven that there's real demand for immersive, detailed, and instantly accessible property exploration."
Scaling to Serve a Global Audience
The company's listing portfolio spans residential apartments, gated communities, commercial units, and more. Developers and real estate agents have quickly recognized the value of showcasing properties in a format that's both engaging and convenient. Buyers, on the other hand, are gravitating towards RealView360° because it saves time, reduces uncertainty, and enables comparisons without exhausting site visits.
"Our platform appeals as much to the first-time homebuyer as it does to the seasoned investor," notes Mr. Rajesh Myakala, Co-Founder and CEO of NearEstate.in. "By removing geographical limitations, we're making it possible for an NRI in Dubai / America / Australia to explore a villa in Hyderabad, or a tech professional in Bengaluru to assess a property in Pune-all within minutes."
Trust, Transparency, and Technology
Real estate has historically been an industry where trust and transparency are at a premium. Buyers often hesitate to commit without thoroughly inspecting a property in person, while sellers might struggle to differentiate their listings in a saturated market. NearEstate.in's immersive platform addresses both challenges elegantly.
The company's approach aligns well with evolving consumer expectations. Today's buyers demand authenticity, and the ability to virtually move through a home and its locality contributes significantly to building confidence. For sellers, the platform's dynamic presentation format reduces the number of physical visits needed, focusing face-to-face interactions on serious, informed prospects.
The Road Ahead
Backed by recognition from the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) under Startup India, NearEstate.in has positioned itself at the forefront of the PropTech revolution. Operating from T-Hub-India's largest innovation incubator-it benefits from a vibrant ecosystem of entrepreneurs, mentors, and investors.
NearEstate.in's momentum shows no signs of slowing. Having hit the 1,000-property mark, the startup is now looking to integrate augmented reality (AR) solutions, predictive analytics, and customization tools into its platform. These enhancements will allow buyers to visualize renovations or furniture layouts virtually and provide data-driven insights to fine-tune their property selections.
"As we expand our inventory and refine our technology, our mission remains the same-to simplify and enrich the property search experience," Myakala says. "We see a future where technology doesn't just supplement the real estate process; it underpins it, making transactions more efficient, informed, and ultimately beneficial for everyone involved."
Rewriting the Real Estate Playbook
For an industry that has long relied on personal visits, physical brochures, and sometimes opaque practices, NearEstate.in's growth is a clear signal of changing tides. The platform's ability to deliver immersive, high-fidelity property explorations aligns with the broader digital transformation sweeping through real estate. Buyers are increasingly comfortable with digital showings, and sellers appreciate the heightened credibility and global reach these virtual tools provide.
In many ways, the 1500+ properties milestone is just the first chapter in NearEstate.in's story. As it moves forward, the startup stands at the confluence of real estate tradition and technological innovation, setting new standards for how properties are marketed, discovered, and ultimately chosen. In a world that values convenience, transparency, and experience, NearEstate.in is poised to remain a key player, confidently charting the path for a new era in property exploration.
