RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) is the government body every developer must register with. Our backend nightly-syncs from state RERA portals — when a listing carries the green ✅ RERA Verified badge, we've matched its RERA number against the live registry. Listings without this badge are unverified — treat with caution.

Tap the gauge on any listing to see your specific score per factor.
