About us

We started Vāstu & Vine to make Bangalore property honest.

Five years ago we were buyers ourselves — frustrated by vanishing agents, mystery pricing, and deals that nearly went wrong on a title technicality. So we built the studio we wished we'd had: small, senior, and straight-talking.

Our story

Vāstu & Vine began in 2021 with two advisors, one laptop, and a simple rule: tell the client the truth, even when it costs a deal. We turned down our first commission because the title was cloudy — and the client referred us to three friends. That moment defined how we work.

Today we are a team of senior advisors covering eight Bangalore zones, with in-house legal partners and a loan desk that compares ten banks. We have transacted over ₹420 crore in property, and we have never had a post-sale title dispute — because we verify before we ever let you pay.

We stay deliberately small. Every client works with a named senior advisor who has closed hundreds of deals, not a call-centre. It is the only way we know to keep the quality of advice high enough to be worth your trust.

What we believe

Four values, no fine print

Verify, then trust

We check title, approvals, and price before we let you commit a rupee.

Your goal first

We recommend what fits your life and finances — not what pays us most.
