About

I got scammed in real estate my first year at Spinny. I invested in a plot in Delhi and lost five months’ salary because the sellers didn't actually own it, nobody checked, and nobody warned me. To date, I can’t let go of that memory. Hi, I'm Ravi, Co-Founder at Propsoch, where we're building India's most advanced home buying platform. One that gives you actual confidence before you sign the biggest cheque of your life. What brought me here wasn't a market opportunity. It was a decade of learning what it takes to earn someone's trust when the stakes are high. At Spinny and Smallcase, I learned what it means to design for financial trust at scale, first for car purchases, then for ₹40,000 Cr in investment transactions across 3 million investors. Both times the lesson was the same: when the stakes are high, the product either builds confidence or destroys it. Propsoch is where that learning comes together, because a home at ₹1.5 Crores and above is not just the largest purchase most people will ever make, it is also the least protected one. What we've built at Propsoch: • A Peace of Mind Report built on 80+ research factors, from builder track record to legal due diligence to micromarket data • An advisory layer that treats homebuyers like family, not leads, with real advisors, honest answers, and zero pressure • An intelligence infrastructure that surfaces data most buyers don't even know to ask for 66% of all pending civil cases in India are property disputes. That is the system failure we are here to solve. If you are thinking about buying your first home or your second in Bangalore or Mumbai , and you want real intelligence before you decide, reach out. We are building for exactly you.
