Meraqi is derived from a word "Meraki", a Greek verb/adverb. It means "when you do something with soul, creativity or love; putting a piece of yourself into what you do".
It's what we strive for at Meraqi — to provide high-quality service and advice to our clients. We put soul, creativity and love into finding the right investment fit for our clients. The Pursuit of Excellence is a non-negotiable tenet at MERAQI. Our people, processes and practices are indoctrinated in this ideology. Sincerity and integrity are indelible to our way of life. We strive to foster long-term client relationships. Client trust is our unabashed pursuit and prized asset.
We started our journey on January 16, 2017 with the idea of creating a private boutique advisory and transaction services firm. Our emphasis was on transparency and honesty in our business practice and communication. This approach helped us to develop a trust with our clients to deliver unbiased and optimal solutions.
In 2019, we developed a technology platform: Yield Space (Yieldspace.com) to cater the needs of private investments of HNIs/NRIs in rent yield assets (commercial and vacation homes) and growth yield assets (land and plots).
In 2022, we expanded our transaction services to focus on occupiers and commercial leasing.
In 2018, Meraqi was one of the first firms in India to be accredited by RICS (Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors), a world’s leading professional body for qualifications and standards in land, property, infrastructure and construction.
In 2021, we started paid research publications to provide quality knowledge for the industry.

I have worked with you for the last 4 years now. It has been a pleasure all the way through. I have learnt a lot about real estate from you. Most importantly, I have been amazed at your patience and a great sense of equilibrium towards both sides while we go through the process of negotiation. You have also been extraordinary in your research capacity which always helps to close any business deals.
I wish you all the best in your ventures and it will always be a pleasure to work with you time and again.
