Our story

It began with a simple frustration.

In 2014, Shiv Kumar bought his first home in Gurugram. The process took eleven months, six brokers, and twelve site visits — most of them to projects that didn't match his brief. The market, he realised, wasn't broken. It was just operating without intent.

A year later, Real Concept India was founded with one rule — every family we work with sees no more than five shortlisted projects, and we will not show them a sixth.

That rule still holds, eleven years and 500 families later.

"

We have never run a single ad. Every family that walks in came referred — and that is the only growth strategy we have ever wanted.

A career built on quiet conviction.

Shiv Kumar began his career in 2008 as a junior associate at a Delhi brokerage. By 2014, he had grown frustrated with how the industry treated families — long site-visit days, opaque pricing, and a relentless push toward whichever project carried the highest commission that week.

In 2015 he opened Real Concept India with two colleagues and one rule: never show a family more than five projects. Eleven years later, that boutique discipline has placed 500+ families across Gurugram's premium addresses — without a single paid advertisement.

Today, Shiv personally oversees every consultation. He speaks Hindi, English, Punjabi and a passable Japanese (a habit picked up while working with Krisumi). He cycles to the office most days. He still picks up the phone himself.

Vision & Mission

What we are building toward.

Two short statements that guide every decision we take — from the projects we choose to represent, to the families we choose to take on.

Vision

To redefine how India's discerning families experience real estate.

An industry that operates with the quiet care of a private bank, the precision of a Swiss watchmaker, and the relentless honesty of a family doctor. That is the bar we measure ourselves against — and one we believe Indian real estate is finally ready to clear.

What we do

Real estate advisory & much more.

Beyond placing families into homes, we also help India's leading developers and corporate brands tell their stories better — through a discreet, in-house digital marketing studio.

Residential Advisory

The work we are best known for — placing families into the right home in Gurugram, with end-to-end care from first call to handed-over keys.

  • Personal shortlist within 24 hours
  • Chauffeured site visits
  • Negotiation, documentation, loan facilitation
  • Post-possession support

Commercial & Investment

Office leasing, retail spaces, pre-leased investment properties, and managed-rental portfolios for institutional and HNI clients.

  • Grade A office leasing
  • Pre-leased investment
  • Retail & high-street
  • NRI investment desk

Digital Marketing Studio

An in-house team that helps developers and corporate brands tell their stories better — across web, paid social, and content.

  • Developer launch campaigns
  • Performance marketing for real estate
  • Brand websites & landing pages
  • Corporate brand collateral

What we stand for

Five principles that shape every meeting.

These are not posters on a wall. They are the rules every advisor at Real Concept follows, with no exceptions.

01

Your interest, first.

If a project doesn't fit you, we will tell you — even if it costs us the sale. This is the only way to earn referrals, and referrals are our only growth.

02

Never more than five.

Every family sees a maximum of five shortlisted projects. Anything more is laziness on our part — and confusion on yours.

03

Developer-direct pricing.

As authorised channel partners, we earn from the developer's marketing budget — not by inflating your price. You will never pay us a brokerage.

04

One advisor, end-to-end.

The person who answers your first call will hand you the keys. No hand-offs, no junior staff, no re-explaining what you want.

05

We pick up the phone.

Six months after possession, when a leak appears or a society payment is unclear — we are still your point of contact. Always.

Have a question for us?

If anything above feels too good to be true, that is exactly the conversation we like to start with.

The Team

Six advisors. One promise.
