Common Concerns in
Real Estate Purchase

Do you have any
worries or requests?

I want to keep my other purchase-related costs as low as possible.

Up to free brokerage fees! No extra or hidden costs.

Discounted Brokerage Fees , Always. At REDS, our brokerage fees are always discounted. Depending on the property price, our fee ranges from 1.5% + 30,000 JPY + consumption tax up to 3% + 30,000 JPY + consumption tax - and in some transaction types, it can be even free.

No Hidden or unjustified Fees. Some real estate brokers add charges with unclear reasoning or legal basis, such as “housing loan handling fees” or “property investigation fees.” At REDS, you will never be asked to pay such unnecessary additional costs (*1).

A Real Example. For pre-owned property priced at 50,000,000 JPY, our standard brokerage fee is 1,716,000 JPY, plus approximately 250,000 JPY. That means, you could save up to almost 2,000,000 JPY compared to the legal maximum brokerage fee (*2) traditionally charged by other brokers.

Choose REDS. If you want to reduce the cost of buying /selling real estate, we proudly recommend REDS.

*1 Companies that charge such fees may be subject to administrative penalties for violating applicable laws and regulations. *2 Based on REDS’ own estimate.

This ensures consistent after-sales support. With REDS, you can save both time and cost by coordinating renovation planning in parallel with your real estate transaction.

*If you are planning a renovation, related costs are typically estimated at around 10% of the property price. Please note that this is a rough estimate only, and not a guaranteed 10% discount.

FAQ

Are all of REDS agents really licensed brokers?

Yes, that's correct. At REDS, only agents of licensed broker of real estate are employed.

The brokerage fee is low, are there any additional costs or fees that I should be aware of?

There are no additional costs or fees.

While our brokerage fees are low, we do not receive any additional costs or fees.

We are committed to maintaining and even enhancing the quality of our services without compromising.

We look forward to hearing from you.

*Please note that in the event of finding the desired property and successfully entering into a purchase agreement, standard fees such as stamp duty for the contract, real estate registration fees, and various expenses related to obtaining a housing loan from a financial institution will apply, similar to other real estate companies.

Will you always give us discount or free brokerage fees for all properties?

Yes, the brokerage fees at REDS will be either free or discounted with all properties.

Will you do price negotiations on behalf of us, such as discounts?

Yes! Our experienced agents with abundant of knowledge will do their best in negotiation. However, this is not a very favorable situation for the seller, so we need to let the seller know in a positive way that you are willing to purchase at the desired price. That attitude increases the possibility of successful negotiations. Therefore, at REDS, we negotiate the price after receiving a written negotiation request from the customer with the desired purchase price.
