The Agreement Between Broker and Buyer is a fundamental document used in Indian real estate transactions to formalize the relationship between a property buyer and their chosen real estate broker. This agreement becomes necessary when a potential buyer seeks professional assistance in identifying, evaluating, and acquiring property, whether for residential, commercial, or investment purposes. The document is structured to comply with Indian legislation, particularly the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA), the Indian Contract Act, and relevant state laws. It typically includes detailed provisions about the broker's services, commission structure, exclusivity terms (if any), and the duration of the engagement. The agreement serves to protect both parties' interests by clearly defining their rights, obligations, and the scope of services, while ensuring transparency in the property transaction process. It is particularly important in the Indian context where real estate transactions often involve complex regulatory requirements and multiple stakeholders.
