Although the national government has set a goal of revitalizing the distribution of vacant houses, there have been cases where people have avoided real 每日更新+av在线 transactions themselves because the prices of properties are low for vacant houses in rural areas, and if the house is located far away from the city, the cost of surveying will be higher than usual, which may cause real 每日更新+av在线 agents to lose money.
Therefore, it has become possible to include the cost of a current survey separately from the brokerage fee, and when the sales price is 4 million yen or less, the real 每日更新+av在线 agent can receive up to 180,000 yen including the survey cost from the seller.
However, it is necessary to explain the remuneration amount to the seller beforehand at the time of the conclusion of the mediation contract, and to agree between both parties about the expense of the investigation.
