Legal safeguards for home buyers against Unfair Contract

Isn’t it ironic that in a country where the number of unsold housing units is skyrocketing, the business of real estate continues to be a seller’s market? Contrary to the developers’ influence peddling that the housing market is by and large a buyer’s market now, the fact lies that the developers continue to take the buyers for a ride. The developers’ exploitative practices are not limited to the delay of the project, but also default in delivering the promised amenities, and, most glaringly, with one-sided unfair contract. Track2Realty explains the options before the home buyers.

Unfair Contract is a disease: Advocate Nirmit Srivastav

In India, the moment you buy a house the joke is on you – whether you get the possession of the house, or that possession is delayed or even denied. The buyers’ harassment starts with the Builder Buyer Agreement which in most of the cases is a one-sided document. The buyers mostly have no other choice but to sign on the dotted lines, because by the time the Builder Buyer Agreement is thrown at their face they have already paid the initial booking amount.
