How RoomDekho works

The complete rental journey,
step by step.

Six connected stages take a room from a new listing to a happy move-in. Scroll through the story, or open any step to see what happens behind the scenes.

01
Step 01 · Owner

Owner lists the property

A verified owner creates the property, adds room details and publishes the listing into the approval queue.

  • Register or sign in as an owner
  • Add property and room details
  • Upload photos and set monthly rent
  • Select amenities and submit for review

How it works: Owners must complete identity verification before a listing can go live. Each property can contain multiple rooms, and each room carries its own rent, availability, electricity type, water source and photos.

02
Step 02 · Admin

Admin reviews and approves

The admin team checks the property, owner identity and listing quality before tenants can discover it.

  • Listing arrives in the admin review queue
  • Owner KYC and property details are checked
  • Approve or reject with a clear reason
  • Approved rooms become visible to tenants

How it works: Approval protects tenants from incomplete or misleading listings. Rejected listings stay in the owner workspace so the owner can correct the details and resubmit.

03
Step 03 · Tenant

Tenant searches for a room

Tenants search by location, set a budget and filter by room type, amenities and availability.

  • Search by city, area or property name
  • Set minimum and maximum rent
  • Choose room type and amenities
  • Sort by newest, lowest rent or popularity

How it works: Search results are powered by live room data. Every card shows the property, location, rent and key room facts, and opens into a full property detail page.

04
Step 04 · Tenant + Owner

Tenant contacts the owner

Questions, visit planning and negotiation happen in a direct conversation between tenant and owner.

  • Start a chat from the property page
  • Ask about rent, rules and availability
  • Agree on a convenient visit time
  • Keep every message in the inbox

How it works: The conversation is scoped to the tenant and the property owner, so personal contact details stay private until both sides choose to share them.

05
Step 05 · Booking

Booking and payment

The tenant sends a booking request, the owner accepts, and payment unlocks the active tenancy.

  • Tenant selects a move-in date
  • Owner accepts or rejects the request
  • Tenant pays deposit and first month rent
  • Booking becomes active with an agreement

How it works: A room can only have one pending or active booking at a time. When the owner accepts, the room is marked unavailable, an agreement is created and the booking moves into the payment stage.

06
Step 06 · Move-in

Move in and review

The agreement is available online, rent is tracked from the dashboard and the tenant can share feedback.

  • Open and review the rental agreement
  • Confirm move-in details with the owner
  • Track rent and payment history
  • Rate the room and owner after move-in

How it works: The tenant dashboard keeps agreements, payments, maintenance requests and conversations together. Owners see the same booking from their side, so both parties always know the latest status.

Trust & safety

Trust is built into
every step.

RoomDekho is designed around verified people, protected data and predictable booking outcomes. Here is what keeps the marketplace accountable.

Verified identities

Owners submit Aadhaar and PAN or driving licence documents. Admins review each request before verification.

Role-scoped dashboards

Tenant, owner and admin areas are protected by role middleware. Each account only reaches the tools it needs.

Owner-controlled listings

Only the owner who created a property can edit its rooms. Cross-account access is blocked on the server.

Booking integrity

Room availability is locked during booking creation, so two tenants cannot confirm the same room at the same time.

Payment records

Every payment is stored against a booking with its method, amount, status, transaction reference and paid date.

Agreement trail

When an owner accepts a booking, an agreement is created and linked to the tenant, owner and booking dates.

Maintenance accountability

Tenants raise room-specific requests while owners and admins track status from open to resolved.

Admin oversight

Admins can review users, payments, bookings, reports and platform settings from a single command centre.

Quick answers,
before you begin.

Still curious? Start with the journey that matches you — tenant, owner or admin — or jump into the live platform and explore at your own pace.

Need a human answer?

Use in-app chat for listing questions.

Browse rooms Create account
Is RoomDekho free for tenants?

Yes. Creating a tenant account, searching rooms, saving favourites and chatting with owners are free. Rent, security deposit and any applicable charges are shown before you confirm a booking.

How do I know a listing is genuine?

Owners complete identity verification before listing, and admins can review listings and accounts. Keep conversations and bookings inside RoomDekho so there is a clear record of what was agreed.

How do I schedule a property visit?

Open the property page, start a chat with the owner and agree on a convenient date and time. Confirm the visit before travelling and check the address and contact details in your conversation.

How does the payment step work?

After the owner accepts your booking request, pay the security deposit and first month rent from the Rent & Payments area. The payment is recorded against your booking and appears in your payment history.

When is the rental agreement created?

When an owner accepts a booking, it becomes active, the room is marked unavailable and an agreement is generated for that booking. You can open it from the agreements area of your dashboard.

Can an owner reject a booking request?

Yes. An owner can accept or decline a request. If the request is declined, the room stays available and you can continue searching or contact the owner to discuss alternatives.

What should I do if I cannot log in?

Use the “Forgot password” link on the login page and follow the reset instructions. If your account still needs email verification, use the verification link sent to your registered email address.

How do I list my property?

Create an owner account, complete identity verification, add your property details and rooms, upload photos and submit the listing for review. Once approved, tenants can discover it in search.
