Is RERA Approval Mandatory?

Yes, the Rajasthan RERA Act mandates that all residential and commercial real estate projects in the state be registered with the RERA authority before they can be marketed, advertised, or sold. This requirement ensures transparency and protects homebuyers from potential fraud.

The Act also applies to real estate agents. According to the law, no real estate agent can facilitate or represent the sale or purchase of any real estate project without obtaining RERA registration. This ensures that only authorised agents are involved in real estate transactions, providing an added layer of accountability.

Features and Benefits of Rajasthan RERA

The primary purpose of RERA Rajasthan is to regulate and promote the state's real estate sector. Some of its features and benefits are:

Registration of Real Estate Projects

The Act mandates the registration of all commercial and residential real estate projects. Without registration, it doesn’t allow any promoter to advertise, market, book, sell or offer any project for sale. When a promoter does so without registration, they become liable to a penalty.

Real Estate Agents Registration

All real estate agents must register at RERA Rajasthan for real estate dealings. On failure to do so, they become liable to a penalty.

Complaint Redressal

Any aggrieved party, whether a buyer, promoter, or agent, can file a complaint with Rajasthan RERA or an Adjudicating Officer if they face issues related to real estate projects or violations of the Act's provisions.

Real Estate Appellate Tribunal

The State Government is required to establish Appellate Tribunals to hear appeals from the decisions, directions or orders of RERA and the Adjudicating Officer. Any person aggrieved by any decision, direction, or order by the authority or an Adjudicating Officer may file an appeal before the tribunal.

Transparency

The Rajasthan RERA Act ensures transparency in the real estate sector by making the details of all registered projects easily accessible online for citizens.
