As a potential investor or even someone who is in the real estate market, you should familiarise yourself with all the laws that regulate this industry. Recently, the government of India has enacted a new law RERA that pertains to this sector. Therefore, whether it is one of the HRH Vasant Valley: Housing Projects in Faridabad or some premium apartment complexes on sale, they have to follow the new RERA guidelines that are laid down by the central government.
Dedicated
body for redressals
One of the clear guidelines of the Real Estate Regulatory Authorities act is that there should be dedicated tribunals in every
state as well as the union territory of India. The main job of these tribunals
would be to allow the investor to check the project details as well as the
potential of the builder before they invest their hard-earned money in buying an apartment. Furthermore, if there is any dispute, then this must be resolved
within 60 days from the date when the complaint is filed.
All residential, as well as commercial
developers, have to register with the RERA and upload the entire project
details on the RERA website so that it can be viewed by all the investors.
Warranties
by the project promoters
In the past, many a time, unscrupulous
developers used to sell their projects at huge discounts even before they get
all the necessary permissions from the authorities. As many investors failed to
do due diligence to find whether all the approvals have been taken as well as
the legal sanctity of the projects, they were defrauded as such projects were
susceptible to price escalation in the future, last-minute change of plans, and
delays. To safeguard the interest of the investors, the RERA law mandates that
the promoter has to declare the legal title of the project land so that
investors can authenticate it.
Timely
delivery of the property
The new RERA law mandates that the properties
should be delivered to the investor in the time that is specified in their
contract. If for some reason they cannot do it and if the investor wish, they
can get the entire money back with interest.
The
developer should furnish all the project details
This act makes it mandatory that the promoters
should disclose all the necessary facts and figures related to the projects
that include, including project plan and site layout, land title status,
government approvals, the number of homes for sale, names of subcontractors,
schedule for completion, payment schedules and so.
In addition to all these, the other important
information that the developer must provide is the exact carpet area, regular
progress report, and others. In case the developer default on any of the
sections or subsections of this act, then they can be fined or even jailed.
