Services

Paid by the developer, accountable to you.

That sentence only holds up if you can see the number. Here is the work, and here is the money, in that order.

Shortlisting on record

Six to ten developments matched to your configuration, budget and commute, delivered as a written document. The commission we earn is printed next to each one. Nothing goes on that list that we would not be willing to defend in writing.

Developer and title diligence

MahaRERA registration and the quarterly filings, the sanctioned plan checked against what is actually being sold, a title search through an independent advocate, and the developer's delivery record on their last three completed projects.

Price and payment negotiation

Floor rise, preferred location charges, parking, club membership and infrastructure charges, then the payment milestones themselves. On a 1.4 crore purchase the negotiable extras are routinely worth more than any discount on the base rate.

Handover and registration

A snag inspection before you accept possession, the possession letter, stamp duty and registration at the sub-registrar, and the handover of common areas to the society. All of it happens long after the developer has paid us.

A brochure is not a building.

We read the sanctioned plan, the quarterly MahaRERA filing and the site itself, and we tell you where the gap between them is. On an under-construction purchase, that gap is the entire risk you are taking on.

How we are paid

Three ways, and only three.

Most clients use the first one and pay us nothing directly. The other two exist so that nobody has to.

Standard

Developer-paid

₹0

You pay us nothing. The developer pays a commission of 2.4% to 5.2% of the agreement value, and we give you the exact figure for each project before you visit it.

  • Covers all four services
  • Commission disclosed upfront
  • No charge if you do not buy

For buyers who want no developer money involved

Advisory retainer

₹30,000

A flat retainer for the shortlist and the diligence work. If you buy through us afterwards the full retainer is credited against the developer commission and we rebate the difference.

  • Fully credited on purchase
  • Written diligence report
  • Independent of any developer

Secondary market

Resale and rental

1%

Capped at 1% of the transaction value and paid by you, because there is no developer in the deal to pay it. Rentals are one month's rent, split with the landlord.

  • Capped at 1%
  • Rental: one month, split
  • Same diligence process

Questions

The four we get asked most.

If yours is not here, ask it on the call. We would rather answer it before you engage us than after.

Does the commission change what you recommend?
It would be strange to claim it cannot. What we can do is close the information gap: you see the percentage on every project at the shortlist stage, before any site visit, so you can weigh what we say knowing exactly what we stand to make. Our highest-paying project, Prasanna Heights in Punawale, is the one we put forward least often, and its card says so.
What if I want to buy something you do not cover?
We will tell you plainly and step back. We follow eight Pune micro-markets closely enough to have an opinion worth paying for. Outside those we would be guessing, and a guess dressed up as advice is worse than no advice at all.
Do I pay anything if I walk away?
On the developer-paid model, no. There is no engagement fee, no charge for the shortlist, and nothing to pay if you decide against every project we show you. The advisory retainer is the exception, and it is optional.
Are you registered with MahaRERA?
Yes. Aura Realty Advisory LLP is registered as a real estate agent under MahaRERA, registration number A52100047821. Under the RERA Act an unregistered agent cannot legally facilitate a sale in a registered project, so it is worth checking this for anyone you deal with, ourselves included.
