Brokerage fee

April 17,2015

Brokerage fee is paid to a property agent as contingency fee.   The maximum amount of brokerage fee is limited by Building Lots and Building Transaction Business Law. To calculate the upper limit, the selling price is divided into 3 range as below and each of them are multiplied by the fixed percentage.

                                                                                                                                             Base on selling price

Less than 2 million yen                                                                5% +consumption tax

More than 2 — less than 4 million yen                                       4%+ consumption tax

More than 4 million yen                                                                3% + consumption tax

 

When purchasing a Japanese property, you need roughly 5% to 6% of the selling price as expenses and taxes such as brokerage fee, acquisition tax, judicial scrivener fee, registration tax, stamp duty , consumption tax and adjustment of fixed tax.

The reason that we can’t determine the expenses with the selling price is that acquisition tax and registration tax are based on a different standard table which is called “ the fixed asset tax table standard”. In addition the fixed asset tax is imposed with both of land value and building value on the land, which deteriorates over time year by year.

 

News about violent crimes in Japan sometimes are broadcasted. When we watch the news, we are likely to be afraid that they will hit our property. The recent increase on foreign workers and the collapse in society may bring the rise of violent crimes. However the current survey denies the worry. The ratio of murder crimes is decreasing year by year.
