Real estate agent harrassing for brokerage Real estate agent harrassing for brokerage

I Had given one year brokerage at the time of agreement to agent three years back.

And There is no any further agreement with brokers for every year renewal fee nor mentioned on agreement copy.

Owner also supporting and told me don't give any brokerage fees as it's not mentioned on agreement.

But brokers demanding they want one month brokerage fees every year.

Kindly help and advice how to manage this.

A.Dear Client,
After the enactment of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, all real estate agents are mandatorily required to register themselves with the RERA under Section 9 of the Act and the functions or activities in the real estate business are regulated under Sec.10 of the said Act. If your so-called agent is a registered agent under RERA, then you can lodge a complaint against him for unfair trade practice before the Adjudication Officer, RERA under Section 31 of the Act for a resolution in the matter. Otherwise, serving a legal notice to the agent, you have to lodge a complaint against him with the nearest police station and file a criminal suit against him for criminal intimidation under Sec. 503 of IPC. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps

A.Dear Client,
The real estate agent cannot demand the brokerage in the absence of any agreements in that regard. In this case, you can file a complaint against the agent to the local police for illegal practice and harassment.
Hope it helps.
Thank you

A.Dear sir,
In many cities such illegal practice is there. You approach police and they will teach them a lesson. You need not give any brokerage.
