Serving Kolkata & surrounding areas
A MyThikana initiative

Match requirements, stock & buyers — in your locality.

Side by Side is a co-broking desk for Kolkata brokers. Post what your client is looking for, find the broker holding it, and split the commission 50/50. Free, and your details stay protected.

The problem

WhatsApp is good at conversation. It is bad at memory.

Most Kolkata brokers have one side of a deal but not the other. Both are sitting in the same groups, and the match still doesn't happen.

What happens in the group

  • A requirement is buried under fifty messages by evening.
  • No way to search "3BHK, Lake Town, under 80 lakh" across six months.
  • Every message a different format, so half the details are missing.
  • Nothing written down. Six months later the split is remembered differently.

What Side by Side adds

  • Every requirement stays live and searchable until it is closed.
  • Filter by category, locality, configuration and budget in seconds.
  • One structured format — budget, timeline and client stage always there.
  • Every introduction timestamped, with the agreed split on record.
Two ways to use it

Two ways to close more deals

Whether you are holding the buyer or holding the property, the other side is somewhere on this network.

Post a requirement

You have the client but not the property. Post what they want — category, locality, configuration, budget, timeline and how ready they are.

  • Your client's name and number are never shown
  • Brokers holding matching stock come to you
  • Write notes in your own words — the matching reads plain language

Post your stock

You are holding a property with no buyer. Post it with the sensitive details masked and let the requirement side find you.

  • Building, address and owner contact stay hidden
  • Only category, locality, configuration, price band and area are public
  • Revealed only to a broker whose request you accept
Coverage

Built for Kolkata. Growing locality by locality.

A co-broking network only works when everyone is trading the same market. We are starting where we actually know the ground.

How it works

Live in three steps

Registration takes about two minutes. The platform stays out of the deal itself.

1

Create your profile

Name, firm, the areas you work and what you deal in. Add your RERA number for a Verified badge.

2

Post a requirement or your stock

One structured format, so budget, timeline and client stage are always there. Sensitive details stay hidden.

3

Connect and close

Numbers are exchanged only after both sides accept. You work the deal offline exactly as you do now.

What is protected

Built for brokers who have been burned before

This is the part brokers ask about first, so it is stated plainly.

Your stock is not exposed

Building name, exact address and owner details are never shown. Only category, locality, configuration, price band and area.

Your client is not exposed

A requirement post never carries your client's name or number.

Contact exchange is mutual

Nobody gets your number until you accept the connect request.

Matches come with a reason

Every match is scored and explained in plain language, so you know why before you call.

Every introduction on record

Who connected, on what date, on which property, on what split — permanently on your dashboard.

Poaching ends a membership

Going around a broker to reach their client or owner is the one thing that removes an account.

Commission

50/50 by default. Agreed by you, recorded by us.

It is a default, not a rule — the two of you settle your own terms. MyThikana is not a party to any of it. No escrow, no platform cut. All we hold is the record.

Confirm before the visit

Both sides confirm a short co-broking note — the property, the date, the agreed percentage and who bears the GST.

Fifteen seconds

That note is the difference between a clean settlement and an argument nine months later.

Six-month convention

Standard practice on the network: the first documented introduction holds for six months.

Pricing

Free for brokers. Not "free for now".

Charging brokers to join a young network is the fastest way to kill it. MyThikana earns from the services around a deal — loan assistance, legal work and valuation — all optional.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Why should I post my stock where competitors can see it?
They only see category, locality, configuration and price band. No building name, no address, no owner contact. That is enough for a broker to know whether to call you, and not enough for anyone to go around you.
What stops someone from stealing my client?
The masking, and the record. When you connect, the platform timestamps it. If someone goes direct afterwards, there is dated proof, and that broker is removed. In a market this small, that reputation follows them.
Why would I use this instead of the WhatsApp group?
Keep the group — match alerts get pushed there. The difference is that in six months you can search Side by Side for every 4BHK requirement in New Town under a crore, and the group will have swallowed all of it.
You are a broker too. Why should I trust you with my requirements?
Fair question. MyThikana does not act on network posts unless invited, and our own listings are kept in a separate marked section, never in the network pool. The business runs on loan and legal work, not on harvesting other brokers' stock.
What if we disagree about the commission?
The platform holds the note both of you confirmed — the property, the date, the split, the GST. It cannot force payment, but most disputes come from nobody writing anything down, and that part is fixed.
Is it really free?
Yes. No listing fee, no subscription, no cut of your brokerage. Loan and legal services are offered separately and are entirely optional.
What areas does it cover?
Kolkata and surrounding areas to start — Salt Lake, New Town, Rajarhat, Lake Town, Behala, Tollygunge, Garia, Howrah and the EM Bypass corridor. Residential, commercial, warehouse, land and independent floors.
Who is behind it

Built by a working desk, for working brokers

MyThikana is a Kolkata property consultancy — property, home loans and legal documentation under one roof. We sit on the same side of the table as you, which is exactly why the boundaries are written down rather than assumed.

We do not act on any requirement or stock posted here unless the posting broker invites us. Our own listings appear in a separate marked section and never enter the network pool. If that ever stops being true, the network dies and so does the reason to build it.
