Registered agencies vs. informal middlemen
Work with registered companies that have valid PAN registration and business permits. Avoid anonymous middlemen who do not provide verifiable company contact details.
Standard commission structures and transparency expectations
Standard agency commissions range between 1% and 2% of the transaction value. Agree on commission rates in writing before property site visits.
