Relocating or immigrating to the United States is an exciting opportunity, but it can also be complex and expensive—especially when it comes to real estate. For many Japanese individuals and families, the U.S. housing market feels very different from what they are used to in Japan. High commissions, multiple intermediaries, and unfamiliar processes often make buying or selling a home more costly than expected. This is where modern platforms like Beycome can make a real difference.
In the U.S., traditional real estate transactions usually involve agents on both sides, with commissions that often total 5% to 6% of the property price. For international buyers or sellers, these costs can be surprising and difficult to justify. Beycome offers a clear alternative through its For Sale By Owner (FSBO) model, Flat Fee MLS listings, and integrated title services—designed to give people more control while significantly reducing costs.
The For Sale By Owner approach allows homeowners to sell their property directly, without paying traditional percentage-based commissions. This does not mean managing everything alone. Beycome provides a full digital platform that guides users through pricing, listing, showings, offers, paperwork, and closing coordination. For Japanese residents moving to the U.S., this means greater transparency, direct communication, and a clearer understanding of every step of the transaction.
Flat Fee MLS is another key advantage. The MLS (Multiple Listing Service) is the main database used by real estate professionals across the United States. Listings on the MLS are automatically distributed to major websites such as Zillow, Realtor.com, and Redfin. With Beycome, sellers pay a simple flat fee instead of a commission, while still receiving the same exposure as traditional agent-listed properties. This combination of visibility and cost control can result in thousands—or even tens of thousands—of dollars in savings.
Beycome also offers title services which are essential in U.S. real estate transactions. Title services verify property ownership, review the property’s legal history, and ensure the transfer is completed securely and correctly. By offering these services in-house, Beycome simplifies the process for international buyers and sellers and helps reduce additional third-party fees.
For Japanese individuals relocating to the United States—whether for work, investment, or a new lifestyle—Beycome provides a modern, transparent, and cost-effective way to navigate real estate. By combining technology, flat fees, and professional support, Beycome helps make buying or selling a home in the U.S. simpler, clearer, and far more affordable.
