Hi,
We are a startup-This is what we are:
Rentimental.com was conceived amongst a melee of ideas about services that reach out to people. It soon emerged as the unanimous choice for our first venture at Munificent Ventures Private Limited. The “world’s on rent” now – broker and hassle free!
In today’s world people change jobs and move to a new city more often than they used to. Rentimental.com focuses on easing out the challenges involved in this process.
Finding the right home to rent is the first challenge. Our Residential properties service provides you with your choice of location, integration with Google maps to ascertain proximity to schools, offices, shopping, medical care, recreation and much more. Absolutely broker free, no hidden costs. Just walk in and make yourselves at home.
Once you’ve found a wonderful home and saved on brokerage, hire movers and packers and also choose to rent rather than buy everything else – furniture, washing machines, refrigerators, computers, TV, laptops, cars and bikes, catering and tiffin services – we did tell you the world’s on rent, didn’t we? Keep visiting Rentimental – our list of new products and services on rent is growing!
We have ensured that the renting experience at Rentimental is broker free, safe and secure. Besides a comfortable and enriching online experience we have ensured that you receive excellent offline support when you call in.
Our team here at Munificent Ventures is a blend of youth and experience from IMT Nagpur and NIT Warangal. Together we bring to the table IT, engineering, management and entrepreneurial skills, backgrounds in banking, systems consulting and systems integration, project experience with international funding organizations and apex bodies of the government and above all, a common vision to combine social responsibility with business acumen and endeavor.
Although Rentimental.com has just launched in Mumbai recently, we will be opening up in several other cities in the next few months.
Rentimental is the first of many exciting ventures from Munificent. Ventures that empower people and communities, open up opportunities and options and bring them within reach.
Meanwhile, the world’s on rent! Make it yours
