Initially, UP RERA is inviting online applications from agents operating in Lucknow, Gautambudh Nagar, Kanpur, Gorakhpur, Varanasi, Prayagraj, and Moradabad for enrollment in the training program. It is essential to note that no individual or agency can obtain registration to work as a real estate agent without completing this mandatory training.
