  • Registration and Compliance: Every real estate agent must be registered with Haryana RERA. They are required to quote their registration number on all transactions. This ensures that all activities are tracked and comply with regulatory standards​​.

  • Avoidance of Unfair Trade Practices: Real estate agents are prohibited from engaging in unfair trade practices. This includes making false statements about the quality or status of services, misrepresenting affiliations or approvals and publishing misleading advertisements. They must ensure that all their communications and promotional materials are truthful and accurate​​.
  • Ensuring Project Registration: Agents are not allowed to facilitate the sale or purchase of properties in projects that are not registered with Haryana RERA. This is to ensure that all projects meet the required regulatory standards and provide a safeguard for buyers​​.
