In Maharashtra, there are approximately 47,000 agents registered with MahaRERA. However, 13,785 agents have had their registrations cancelled due to non-renewal. Furthermore, over 20,000 agents have had their registrations suspended for failing to meet the mandatory requirements of training and certification.
In the real estate sector, agents play a crucial role in connecting homebuyers with developers. They provide initial information about projects to potential homebuyers, making it essential for them to be well-versed in the provisions of the RERA Act.
Agents are expected to have uniform, clear, and credible preliminary information about the developer, project, agreement for sale, allotment letter, carpet area, defect liability period, and more. Based on this information, a purchaser makes a decision to buy a certain residence or not.
To protect the interests of homebuyers, MahaRERA has made training and certification mandatory for real estate agents. This move aims to bring transparency and accountability to the sector.
MahaRERA's initiative is a significant step towards ensuring that real estate agents are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to provide accurate and reliable information to homebuyers.
