Point 2| Review pricing

One of the biggest reasons why real estate is difficult to sell isThe pricing is too high.That's right. Simply adjusting the asking price to match the market price can dramatically increase inquiries.

Especially with lower-priced properties, private sales can result in the same or even higher net profit than selling through a real estate company, even if you list the property at a lower price, because there are no brokerage fees.

We've received many comments like, "We just lowered the price a little, and we started getting inquiries the following week."

Point 3| Sold as-is, with all remaining items.

There are many cases where people think, "I'll sell it after I clean it up," or "I'll sell it after I repair it," and before they know it, time just slips away.There are always buyers, even if the property is sold as-is with all the remaining items still inside.

DIY enthusiasts and investors often prefer selling their property "as is," so saving time and money on cleaning and repairs and putting it on the market immediately is the quickest way to sell.

"I waited for them to clean up, and more than a year passed. When I put it up for sale as-is, I immediately received inquiries," one person commented.

Point 4| Enhance photos and descriptions

The first thing buyers look at is the photos and the description.Even photos taken with a smartphone can be bright, wide-angle, and multiple images can be captured.Simply posting it can significantly change the response rate.

In the description, be sure to include not only the property's features but also specific information that buyers want to know, such as the surrounding environment, transportation access, sunlight, and neighborhood atmosphere. Being honest about the current situation will build trust and make communication after inquiries smoother.

Point 5| Appealing to overseas buyers as well

As long as you only look for buyers domestically, the pool of potential buyers will be limited. In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in overseas buyers interested in Japanese real estate.Appealing to overseas markets simultaneously could significantly speed up the sale process.

J Home 2 U features a chat function with automatic translation, allowing you to negotiate smoothly with overseas buyers even if you don't speak English. Even older, low-priced properties that are difficult to sell domestically can sometimes be in high demand from overseas.
