India's rental housing market is changing fast. People want flexibility — short stays, furnished homes, transparent prices. RentPe brings that flexibility to home rental, apartment rental and vacation rental with a marketplace built around real owners and verified listings.
The three main types of home rentals on RentPe
1. Long-term apartment rental
Furnished and semi-furnished 1BHK, 2BHK and 3BHK homes with monthly pricing. Perfect for relocations, internships and project-based work.
2. Short-term home rental

Villas, hill-station cottages and beach houses for weekend escapes. Hosted by real owners, not impersonal hotel chains.
