MahaRERA's New Rule: Annual Quality Assurance Certificates Mandatory for Developers
Real Estate Pune:In a move to safeguard the interests of homebuyers, the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) has made it mandatory for developers to obtain annual quality assurance certificates. This new rule aims to ensure that homebuyers receive good quality residences and do not have to chase the builder to get defects repaired.

The quality assurance certificate will be issued by a third-party auditor, who will inspect the project and verify that it meets the required standards. The certificate will be valid for a period of one year, after which the developer will need to obtain a new certificate.

This move is expected to bring transparency and accountability in the real estate sector, which has been plagued by complaints of poor construction quality and neglect by builders. Homebuyers will now have the assurance that their homes are built to last and meet the required standards.

MahaRERA has also mandated that developers display the quality assurance certificate prominently at the project site, so that homebuyers can easily verify the certificate.

The new rule is a welcome move for homebuyers, who often have to deal with the hassle of getting defects repaired after taking possession of their homes. With the quality assurance certificate, homebuyers can be assured that their homes are built to meet the required standards.

The Maharashtra government had established MahaRERA in 2017 to regulate the real estate sector and protect the interests of homebuyers. Since its inception, MahaRERA has taken several steps to bring transparency and accountability in the sector.
