About RESMA
A two-decade institution, restructured for the way the built environment now works.
The academy, in one paragraph.
Real Estate Studies & Management Academy (RESMA) was established in 2004 with the objective of creating informed, ethical and professionally competent stakeholders in the real estate sector. Over two decades, the academy has trained developers, brokers, planners, architects, advocates, revenue consultants, investors, students and home buyers — and is now restructuring as a multidisciplinary institution focused on Real Estate, Land Governance, Urban Development, Property Management, Planning, Legal Systems, Revenue Administration and Technology & PropTech.
To become India's leading centre for education, capacity building, research and professional development in Real Estate, Land Governance, Urban Development and Property Management.
How we propose to get there.

"Real estate is no longer a transaction. It's an ecosystem."
When we founded RESMA in 2004, the brief was simple: take the people doing the work of real estate, and teach them what nobody else was teaching. Twenty years later that need has only grown. RERA, PropTech, the digitisation of land records, smart-city policy, and the rising expectation of ethical brokerage have all reshaped what a competent professional looks like.
The next chapter of RESMA is a multidisciplinary institution that owns the full picture — revenue records to revenue forecasts, planning regulations to property management, documentation to digital marketing. Our students will leave RESMA prepared not for an exam, but for the field.
I look forward to welcoming you to the 2026 cohort.
