I think that the seller often decides a sale asking price by referring to the appraisal price presented by the real estate intermediary company with which the seller consulted, but in reality, it may often decide a sale asking price at a price somewhat higher than the appraisal price. Generally, in a Japanese real estate deal, a seller is required to pay 3% of the price at which dealing was concluded to a real estate brokerage company as a brokerage commission.
