Central Government had made a model rule for RERA based on which states established their own RERA and most of the states have different builder buyer agreement.
Also, in most of the states RERA rules are in favour of the builders because of which builders are able to make agreements according to them during selling the property.
What is builder buyer agreement?
When a homebuyer buys a home or residential property they pay an initial amount for the same and along with it an agreement is being made between the buyer and builder which is known as builder buyer agreement. It contains all the clauses which is there between the buyer and builder. Also, based on this agreement only home loan is also provided.
