Hi everyone,

I’m planning to start a real estate brokerage in India with no prior experience. I’m looking for practical, ground-level advice from experienced agents or brokers.

Would really appreciate insights on:

First steps to get started (join firm vs start solo?)

Legal requirements (RERA, GST, etc.)

Best way to generate leads in India right now

What actually helps in closing deals

Typical commissions & how long to earn consistently

How to build builder/owner network

Biggest beginner mistakes to avoid

One harsh reality about this business

Thanks in advance for honest insights
