For the assistance of our clients, ezEstate brings you all the types of RERA contracts with the situations where they must be used.  RERA Form A – Seller-Agent Agreement The Form A, as the name suggests, is the agreement between the seller and the broker. This agreement is signed when the seller appoints an agent to find a buyer for his property. The Form A guarantees that the property will be listed on the agreed portals and in the agreed manner with the seller. The seller may terminate the Form A RERA contract with a 7-day written notice. The proper termination requires Form U to be filled by the contracting parties.  RERA Form B – Buyer-Agent Agreement The Form B RERA contract is signed when the buyer appoints an agent to find a suitable property. After the signing the Form B, it becomes the responsibility of the broker to find a property as per your requirements. Form B can be terminated by the buyer with a 7-day notice stating the reason for termination using the Form U.  RERA Form F – Purchase Agreement This is one of the most important RERA forms. Form F is a tri-party RERA contract which involves the buyer, seller, and the agent. This contract becomes valid only after the buyer and seller have signed it with free consent. This contract contains all the details for the property, the mortgage, and the commission payable to the real estate agent. To execute any real estate transaction, Form F RERA is a mandatory contract.  RERA Form I – Agent-Agent Agreement When more than one agent collaborates to work for a deal, the Form I is signed by all the agents. This contract protects the rights of the agents and clearly specifies the split of commission among the agents.  RERA Form U – Notice to Terminate the Contract In case the buyer or the seller is not satisfied with their agent, they may terminate the contract giving a 7-day notice stating the reason for termination. This is the proper way of terminating any contract with the real estate agent.
