Is RERA a rating agency?

Is RERA a rating agency? Does real estate regulation & promotion all about promotion, especially when RERA has not been a success story to regulate arguably India’s most dirty business. The question arises because in a couple of States the RERA had earlier announced to rate & grade the developers with much fanfare. It is a different matter that Track2Realty had questioned it since beginning as to whether RERA has stood up to the cause for which it was enacted. Whether SEBI or IRDA rates the companies which it monitors as the regulators?

Is RERA a rehabilitation center of ex bureaucrats?

RERA is yet again under the scanner after the Supreme Court of India questioned whether it is a rehabilitation center of ex bureaucrats. The functioning and performance of RERA, or rather lack of it, has been challenged at each and every level in now nearly 8 years of its existence. A Track2Realty report. Wait! I am not giving any opinion. My opinion is already there in the public domain. Now the Apex Court in the country, the Supreme Court of India is saying so. I have always maintained that the very purpose of RERA was defeated when the ex-Bureaucrats were made the Chairman and members.

Is there any custodian of due diligence in Indian housing?

Housing project is approved by the government agency; RERA; and banks & financial institutions! Shouldn’t this be enough to instil confidence of the home buyers that the housing project is safe to invest? How could otherwise a builder with poor execution capabilities or fiscal imbalance cross the three eyes of scrutiny and dodge the bullet at each and every level of checks & balances? Track2Realty questions as to who is the custodian of due diligence in the housing market?

7 years of RERA; 7 unaddressed questions

It was conceptualised to clean the opaque ecosystem of Indian real estate; was touted to be the biggest reform of the sector; and expected to enhance the home buyers’ confidence index. But seven long years after the enactment of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA), it has still not evolved as a stamp of trust for the harassed home buyers. RERA’s tryst with trial & error has not only dented the confidence of the home buyers but also lent credence to the perception that complaint with RERA rather gives an edge to the builders. After all, RERA has been relegated to be the balancing act for both the builder and the buyer. A Track2Realty analysis.

Home buyers’ satisfaction index still low after 7 years of RERA: Survey

As RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) is close to its 7 years of completion, the home buyers across the nation have more to complain than compliment with what was supposed to be a game changer legislation. The buyers rather question as to RERA has been enacted to serve whose purpose. Most of the home buyers across India’s top 10 cities point out that the ground realities have not changed for them. A vast majority of them feel it has opened another window of litigation and thus hurts than helps the buyers. Issues range from lack of transparency to accountability, and existing market realities to consumer interface.

Legal safeguards for home buyers against Unfair Contract

Isn’t it ironic that in a country where the number of unsold housing units is skyrocketing, the business of real estate continues to be a seller’s market? Contrary to the developers’ influence peddling that the housing market is by and large a buyer’s market now, the fact lies that the developers continue to take the buyers for a ride. The developers’ exploitative practices are not limited to the delay of the project, but also default in delivering the promised amenities, and, most glaringly, with one-sided unfair contract. Track2Realty explains the options before the home buyers.

RERA Satisfaction Index pretty low across India

The home buyers have for long alleged that the RERA has failed to provide them substantial relief in the wake of project delay or defaults. Now the Allahabad High Court has also taken cognizance of the issue and has not only questioned reasons of non-execution but also asked for the roadmap as to how RERA Recovery Certificates would be executed.

RERA doesn’t evoke confidence of the homebuyers

Projects worth INR 4,64,300 crore for a total of 575,900 units are already significantly behind schedule. These 5,75,900 units have been stuck since 2013 or before. However, what is even more disturbing than these staggering number is the fact that in many of the states RERA has been diluted to the extent that it allows the erring developers with the existing projects to get away with the fault lines.

RERA sees 40% rise in project registrations in a year
