Features That Transform Renting in Nepal
GharLink combines technology with deep understanding of Nepal's rental market to solve real problems. Here's how we make renting better for everyone.

Map-based Property Discovery
Finding the right property in Nepal has always been challenging. GharLink's map-based discovery changes everything. Just like how Uber shows available rides around you, our app displays all available rental properties on an interactive map. Zoom into your preferred area—near your workplace, your child's school, or your favorite neighborhood—and see exactly what's available. Filter by price range, property type, number of rooms, and amenities. Each listing shows the exact location, not just a vague area name. This transparency helps you make informed decisions and saves hours of property visits to unsuitable locations.

Zero Broker Fees
The traditional dalal system in Nepal has long exploited both property owners and tenants. Brokers typically charge 1-2 months of rent as commission—that's Rs. 15,000-100,000 per transaction for a decent property! GharLink completely eliminates this cost. We connect owners directly with tenants through our platform, ensuring both parties save money. For tenants, this means more budget for deposits or furniture. For owners, this means attracting more potential tenants. Our minimal platform fee is a fraction of broker charges and is transparently displayed. No hidden costs, no exploitation, no middlemen.

Smart Digital Contracts
Verbal agreements and handwritten contracts have caused countless disputes in Nepal's rental market. GharLink's smart contracts are legally binding digital agreements that protect both parties. Every contract includes: rent amount and payment schedule, security deposit terms and refund conditions, contract duration and renewal process, house rules and maintenance responsibilities, utility payment division, and termination clauses. Both parties digitally sign using OTP verification. The contract is stored securely on our platform and can be downloaded as PDF anytime. In case of disputes, the documented terms serve as legal evidence.
Automatic Property Relisting
Property owners in Nepal often face vacant periods between tenants, losing rental income. GharLink's auto-relisting feature solves this. Thirty days before any contract ends, the property is automatically listed as 'upcoming available' (with owner's consent). New tenants can express interest and even pre-book. The transition is seamless: old tenant moves out, new tenant moves in, sometimes on the same day. This means no vacancy losses for owners and a wider selection for tenants planning ahead. Owners can disable auto-relisting if they want to renovate or have other plans.

In-App Payment System
Manual rent collection has been a headache for Nepali property owners—chasing tenants, handling cash, tracking payments. GharLink's in-app payment handles everything: monthly rent, electricity bills, water charges, internet/WiFi, maintenance fees, and any agreed extras. Tenants receive automatic reminders 5 days before due dates. Multiple payment methods are supported: eSewa, Khalti, IME Pay, bank transfer, and more. Every transaction generates instant digital receipts stored in both parties' accounts. Late payment penalties (if agreed) are automatically calculated. For owners, this means predictable income; for tenants, organized payment history.
Two-Way Rating System
Trust is the foundation of good rental relationships. GharLink's rating system builds trust by allowing both tenants and owners to rate each other after the tenancy ends. Owners rate tenants on: payment timeliness, property care, rule adherence, and communication. Tenants rate owners on: maintenance response, fair dealing, communication, and deposit handling. These ratings are visible on profiles, helping future matches. Tenants with good ratings get priority access to premium properties. Owners with good ratings attract quality tenants faster. Poor ratings require improvement or face platform restrictions.
