The person behind UrbanTenants

Hi, I'm Suryansh Shukla —
I built UrbanTenants to fix room-hunting for good.

We started this after seeing how much time students lose hunting for rooms across WhatsApp groups and unreliable listings — and how hard it was for genuine property owners to find the right tenants.

Why I built this, alone.

Every year, thousands of students move to Lucknow for college and end up navigating the same broken system — unverified listings, brokers who disappear after the deposit, and no real way to check a room before showing up with luggage in hand.

I built UrbanTenants to fix exactly that. As a developer, I designed and coded the platform myself, from the listings engine to the booking flow, so renters get accurate details, real photos and videos, and a straightforward way to book a verified room without the guesswork.

UrbanTenants exists to make that simple: verified rooms, honest pricing, and zero brokerage — so every student can find a place to call home without the stress.

Our goals, simplified.

Zero Brokerage, Always

No hidden charges — students pay a fair price, directly.

100% Verified Listings

Every room and PG is checked before it goes live.

Trusted By Students

1,200+ students across UP already rely on UrbanTenants.

A Home, Not Just A Room

Building a platform students can trust from day one.

"I didn't want to build another listings site. I wanted to build the thing I wished existed when I was the one hunting for a room — something honest, fast, and built for the person moving in, not the broker collecting a fee."
