RERA Andaman

The central government established the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) when it launched the Real Estate (Regulation & Development) Act in 2016. RERA aims to reduce the risk of fraud and scams in the real estate sector and safeguard the interests of homebuyers.

The central government introduced RERA in Andaman and Nicobar on May 1, 2017. However, all real estate projects on the islands are governed by the Tamil Nadu RERA (TNRERA). Keep reading to understand the purpose, features, fees, and documents required for Andaman RERA.

Purpose of Andaman RERA

Andaman and Nicobar Islands have an active real estate sector with increasing interest from homebuyers who wish to settle there. This growing demand makes it essential to ensure secure and seamless transactions and promote the growth of the real estate sector.

Andaman and Nicobar RERA aims to maintain transparency in real estate transactions and safeguard the interests of buyers and sellers. The RERA Act mandates the registration of all real estate agents and projects in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands under the regulatory authority. Real estate agents and developers who don't comply with RERA Andaman will face penalties or imprisonment.

Function of RERA Andaman

Here are the core functions of Andaman and Nicobar RERA:

1. Regulating the real estate sector: RERA Andaman sets the guidelines for developers, agents, and brokers to prevent unfair practices and ensure fair real estate transactions.

2. Protecting the interest of homebuyers: Andaman RERA safeguards the interest of homebuyers by reducing the risk of fraud, delays, or misrepresentation.

3. Ensuring transparency: Andaman and Nicobar RERA helps maintain transparency by mandating developers to disclose essential details about their projects, such as land title, project plan, layout, etc. This helps homebuyers make informed decisions about their purchases and housing loan options.

4. Maintaining a public repository of projects: RERA in Andaman and Nicobar maintains a centralised repository of all real estate projects and agents.

RERA Act Andaman: Rules and regulations

All real estate agents, promoters, and developers in Andaman must follow the following RERA rules:

1. Builders can only charge buyers based on the carpet area. This is the actual usable area within the apartment walls and excludes the super-built area.

2. Builders cannot take more than 10% of the property's total cost as an upfront payment from buyers. This reduces the financial burden on buyers and minimises the risk of delays or construction-related issues.

3. Any complaint filed with the Appellate Tribunal must be addressed within 60 days to ensure quick resolutions.

4. Builders must deliver properties within the agreed timeframe. If they fail to meet the deadline, they must pay penalty charges to compensate the buyer.
