According to the report, the number of registered real estate agents in India increased from 27,073 in 2018 to 105,712 in 2025. The company stated that the latest reporting period alone recorded growth of 19.1% in the RERA-registered agent base, indicating continued participation by professionals entering the organised real estate market.
The study stated that the increase in registrations reflects broader structural changes within India’s real estate sector following the implementation of RERA, which introduced mandatory registration requirements for agents, developers and projects across states. The framework was introduced to improve transparency, accountability and compliance standards in residential and commercial real estate transactions.
According to the report, the expanding registration base also indicates growing interest in real estate brokerage as a long-term business opportunity amid sustained housing demand across metropolitan cities and emerging urban markets. The company stated that increasing market activity and formalisation have encouraged more professionals to enter brokerage services through both conventional and technology-enabled operating models.
Sam Chopra, president and country head of eXp Realty India, stated that the increase in registered agents reflected the growing accessibility and scale of India’s real estate market. He added that brokerage operations were also undergoing structural changes, with increasing demand for models that provide flexibility, scalability and operational independence compared to traditional brokerage structures.
Chopra further stated that technology-driven and cloud-based brokerage platforms were enabling agents to operate more efficiently while expanding access to both domestic and international market opportunities. According to the company, digital brokerage models are increasingly becoming part of the sector’s transition towards technology-supported operations, offering agents access to training, operational systems and broader professional networks.
The report noted that platform-led brokerage models have gained visibility in recent years as agents seek greater operational support in a competitive and fast-moving property market. Companies operating under such models typically provide digital transaction tools, customer management systems, virtual collaboration infrastructure and remote operating capabilities for agents working across multiple markets.
The research analysis was based on data sourced from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and Knight Frank covering the period between 2018 and 2025. The study stated that the increase in registrations points towards continued growth in India’s organised real estate ecosystem as compliance requirements and market transparency continue to influence brokerage activity across the country.
