The RERA Act was implemented in the year 2016 with an aim to establish an authority to regulate the real estate sector and ensure efficient and transparent transactions. Across the country, under the act, more than 30,000 real estate projects and 25,000 agents across the country have come, said Union minister.
He further said, “All real estate agents have to get themselves registered with the Authority before facilitating on behalf of any person to facilitate the sale or purchase of any real estate property.”
Across the country, the registration of more than 32,500 real estate projects and more than 25,000 agents had been done so far said the Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Housing and Urban Affairs.
