The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) has significantly impacted property sale agreements in Delhi by introducing several reforms aimed at enhancing transparency, accountability and buyer protection. Here are some key ways in which RERA affects these agreements:
Standardization and Transparency: RERA mandates that all property sale agreements must be standardized, ensuring that all crucial information such as project details, timelines and specifications are clearly mentioned. This transparency helps buyers make informed decisions and protects them from misleading claims by developers.
Registration Requirements: Under RERA, all real estate projects exceeding 500 square meters or more than eight units must be registered with the respective state RERA authority. In Delhi, this ensures that only registered projects can be marketed and sold, thereby protecting buyers from investing in unverified projects.
Regular Updates and Disclosures: Developers are required to provide quarterly updates on project progress, including the status of construction, land approvals, and completion schedules. This ongoing disclosure helps buyers track the progress of their investment and ensures developers adhere to their commitments.
Grievance Redressal: RERA establishes a Real Estate Regulatory Authority and an Appellate Tribunal to handle disputes between buyers and developers. This legal framework ensures that grievances are addressed promptly and fairly, providing a robust mechanism for resolving issues related to property sale agreements in Delhi.
Overall, RERA has made property transactions more secure and reliable, boosting confidence among buyers and ensuring a more regulated real estate market in Delhi.
