Property advertising in your edition, how it works.
How to place a property classified in India's newspapers — what it costs per word and per day, which edition actually covers your town, and how releaseMyAd drafts, translates and books it for you.
A property classified is still the fastest way to reach serious, broker-free buyers and tenants in your own town — in the paper they actually read. The ad is the means; a sold flat or a filled tenancy is the goal, so the wording, the right heading and the right edition matter more than anything.
Booking used to mean a phone call and guessing the rate. Now you pick the paper, edition and date, see the exact per-word price at a lowest-price guarantee, and we draft and translate the matter — free. The GST invoice is emailed; after it runs you can view your ad in the paper's e-paper or buy a local copy as proof.

Common questions
Booking a property ad — answered
Property classifieds are charged per word/line/character, per insertion (per day) — not per week. Most ads land in the ₹700–₹5,000 band; smaller regional papers start lower, premium papers (TOI, ABP, Manorama) run higher. The exact rate depends on the paper, edition, size and any colour, plus 5% GST. Use the rate finder for an instant figure at a lowest-price guarantee — no need to share your matter first.
Property classifieds peak on Sunday/weekend. Each paper has a booking cut-off (often Friday evening for that Sunday). Pick your date in the finder; we confirm the exact cut-off before you pay, and same/next-day is possible for many papers. After it runs you can view your ad in the paper's e-paper or buy a local copy.
Yes — free. Send the details in any language; we draft the classified, correct it, and translate it into the paper's language (Telugu, Gujarati, Bengali, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, Marathi). You see a proof of how it prints before publication.
A property classified runs only in the edition you choose, which maps to specific districts — e.g. an East Godavari edition is not the Hyderabad one. Use the edition map or tell us your town and we'll select the right edition so you don't pay for reach you won't get.
Each word (and often the phone number) counts toward the slab. "2 BHK" is typically counted as written; we show the live word count and the matching rate as you compose, so there are no surprises.

Yes — multi-insertion and repeat-Sunday packages (e.g. 3+1) bring the per-day cost down. We'll show the package options for your paper before you book, at a lowest-price guarantee.
