Hi,Rent agreements can be registered online in maharashtra now ,but both parties need to have aadhar card.It's a hassle free process, where rental agreement format is predefined and you just enter the details, pay registration stamp duty online , confirm biometrics( the 'finger print' in your aadhar db are compared with the ones you submit at the time of registering rental agreement online).The rental agreement is emailed to you with digital signature by the local registration authority.The only problem for you here is the biometric .I am not sure if both buyer and seller need to scan their fingers in the same session or can you scan your finger from overseas and then they continue the session from india to scan theirs.(Biometric device is not an issue as you can get a USB finger scanner that can connect to your laptop)I had registered my rental agreement via the online agent below ,as I dint wanted to purchase a finger scanner . But next time I plan to buy the USB finger scanner and not involve the broker at all.Other than the lack of biometric scanner at many households the process has no other bottleneck and needs no broker to be involved. Online Rent AgreemenI reckon you check the session bit by initiating the process or calling Online Rent AgreementOther option is to give power of attorney to someone who can register the agreement on your behalf.*if you dont have aadhar card then you cant do online regi then power of attorney is the only way out.
