Real estate, today, is at the centre and is the barometer of India’s growing economy. The opportunities are immense. Realtors can play a critical role in transforming these opportunities into reality.
Globally, real estate broking is a profession that is organized with professionals of high calibre. As India moves forward, the time has come for us in India to also match the global practices.
Real estate, by its very nature, passes through business cycles, customers keep changing their expectations; regulations constantly change. The way forward for the industry is to be professional in training and fresh in its approaches.
