The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs has taken a big step towards making property buying safer and more transparent by launching a unified Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) portal. Until now, every state and union territory had its own RERA website, which often made it difficult for buyers and developers to track projects outside their region. With this new centralised system, all project data is available in one place buyers can check approvals, track progress against timelines, and even review a developer’s compliance history. Experts say this will cut down endless follow-ups, reduce disputes, and give homebuyers the confidence that they’re making well-informed decisions.
For developers, the portal simplifies compliance by standardising reporting requirements across states, making it easier to update project details and stay on track with regulations. Industry voices are calling it a “game-changer,” saying it will not only protect buyers’ interests but also create a more investor-friendly environment. By combining transparency for homebuyers with easier compliance for developers, the unified RERA portal is seen as a move that could speed up project delivery, improve trust, and modernise India’s real estate sector as a whole.
