A total of 5,260 candidates have completed preliminary training in the real estate sector to qualify themselves for the online exam. These candidates will appear for the exam at 24 centers across Maharashtra, with 3,081 from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, 1,533 from Pune, 518 from Nagpur, and others from various regions.
So far, the test has been held four times, and about 9,295 candidates have cleared the exam. There are around 47,000 agents registered across Maharashtra, but registrations of 13,785 agents have been cancelled due to non-renewal. In April, MahaRERA suspended the registration of over 20,000 agents who failed to comply with the training and certification requirements by December 31.
These agents will have to comply with the mandatory requirement to resume operations in the real estate sector. Due to this action, the number of candidates appearing for the upcoming test has increased to over 5,000 from around 1,700 in the previous edition.
Real estate agents play a crucial role in the sector, serving as a link between homebuyers and developers. They need to be well-versed in the provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act to provide accurate information to homebuyers. Through the agents, a flat purchaser receives details such as provisions in the agreement for sale, stamp duty and registration, allotment letter, carpet area, payment schedule, regulatory provisions, etc.
