Hello,
What are some good options to transfer large amount of money to India ? $25-50K?
Any thoughts on reasons to do it one time or over some months? TIA

Divvy it up and do it over some months
I just used Xoom, I am pretty sure there might be better options which might give you slightly better exchange

Xoom is the better option out of all. I’m pretty sure you can sent $50k at a single transaction. I did sent even more but the catch is if you are not a regular customer then they put the transaction into hold and first they deduct the $$ from your account and then do the transfer the money to your foreign account. Sometime Remitly or Western Union give a better exchange rate but gonna take more time then xoom..

Instarem allows up to 50k transfer in a month (15k per transaction). Also has the best rates in my experience. Here's my referral link if you want to sign up:

Hi all, I recently purchased a commercial property at WTC, Noida. As I look to grow my portfolio, I spoke to my consultant to see if I could get better prices. He worked with the sales folks at WTC and said that if multiple buyers come in, he could work out a deal. Wanted to check if anyone is interested? I could potentially get him to set up one-on-ones to help explain the commercial real estate market. Even if this property doesn’t seem interesting, I think an interaction wouldn’t hurt.. contd
