Gharoba's purpose is simple â give every buyer an independent, evidence-based view drawn
1straight from the public government record, so the decision stays theirs to make with clear eyes.</p><h2>Why Gharoba exists</h2><p>Every listing portal is paid by builders and brokers to make a project look good. Delays, complaints, court cases and cancelled registrations are quietly kept out of sight. Yet MahaRERA already publishes all of this in the public interest â it just sits in scattered, technical pages an ordinary buyer can't read or compare. The transparency exists; the understanding does not. Gharoba turns that public record into a plain, honest verdict, for free, and takes no money from any builder to rank, promote or hide anything.</p><h2>What Gharoba is</h2><ul><li>Covers all 44,884 MahaRERA-registered projects across Maharashtra.</li><li>Gives each project an evidence-cited verdict â complaints, court cases, delivery delays, revocations â with a link back to the source.</li><li>Uses AI to read, summarise and cross-check public records, and to scan public news for red flags â always citing the source and openly admitting what it can't verify.</li><li>Scores the neighbourhood and the builder on open data, with real road distances.</li></ul><h2>What Gharoba is not</h2><p>Not a broker, not a listing site, not paid by builders, and not against the real-estate industry. It's a neutral transparency layer that helps honest builders stand out and helps every buyer decide wisely. It is not affiliated with any government body and provides decision-support only â not legal or financial advice.</p><h2>Where it's going</h2><p>Gharoba is built first for Maharashtra and designed to scale to every state's RERA record as the project grows. If you're a builder or owner and something here is out of date or wrong, please <a href="/corrections">see our corrections process</a> â we fix or remove it and log the change publicly.</p></main><footer class="site-foot"><div class="site-foot-brand"><svg class="gh-mark" viewBox="0 0 32 32" width="22" height="22" aria-hidden="true" style="flex:none;display:inline-block;vertical-align:middle;margin-right:8px"><path d="M4.5 15 L16 5.2 L27.5 15" fill="none" stroke="var(--accent)" stroke-width="2.6" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"></path><path d="M6.8 14.2 h18.4 v11.8 a1.6 1.6 0 0 1 -1.6 1.6 h-15.2 a1.6 1.6 0 0 1 -1.6 -1.6 Z" fill="var(--accent)"></path><rect x="10" y="18" width="3.6" height="3.6" rx="0.7" fill="rgba(255,255,255,.9)"></rect><rect x="18.4" y="18" width="3.6" height="3.6" rx="0.7" fill="rgba(255,255,255,.9)"></rect><rect x="14.2" y="23.4" width="3.6" height="4.2" rx="0.6" fill="rgba(255,255,255,.9)"></rect><path d="M23.5 11.5 q6.2 -0.6 7.3 -7 q-6.6 0.6 -7.3 7 Z" fill="#37b989"></path></svg><span>Ghar<i>oba</i></span></div><div class="site-foot-links"><a href="/">Home</a><a href="/app">Search</a><a href="/state">Housing Report</a><a href="/explore">Complaints register</a><a href="/guide">Buyer's Guide</a><a href="/advisor">Affordability Calculator</a><a href="/method">Method</a><a href="/about">About</a><a href="/corrections">Corrections</a><a href="/privacy">Privacy</a><a href="/terms">Terms</a><a href="/contact">Contact</a></div><p class="site-foot-note">Gharoba surfaces public government (MahaRERA) and open data for citizens' awareness.
