RERA Approved Auditors
The real estate market in Dubai is a growing and ever-green industry, offering numerous opportunities for entrepreneurs, agents, and investors. If you are involved in the real-estate business or looking to benefit from these opportunities, you need strict compliance with legal and regulatory requirements set by the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA).
In case of negligence towards adhering to these regulations, it can lead to significant penalties and suspension of your business operations. To maintain compliance with RERA’s standards, real estate companies must undergo audits conducted by RERA approved auditors.
WHAT IS RERA?
Who Are RERA Approved Auditors
The Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) is Dubai’s primary regulatory authority for the real estate sector, established under the Law No. (16) of 2007. RERA operates under the Dubai Land Department.
It oversees the compliance and transparency of real estate operations, ensuring ethical practices and protecting the interests of investors and stakeholders.
RERA auditors are specialized auditors authorized by RERA to conduct audits for real estate businesses. For that purpose, the role of authorized auditors is not just compliance but also an important component of your long-term success.
