Compliance Policy
ESTATESJAPAN operates with the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and ethical business conduct. We strictly adhere to the laws and regulations governing the Japanese real estate market.
1. Compliance with Real Estate Laws
We conduct our brokerage and property management services in strict compliance with the Building Lots and Buildings Transaction Business Act (宅地建物取引業法) and all other relevant Japanese real estate and housing laws. We are committed to providing fair and accurate explanations of important matters (重要事項説明) prior to the execution of any contract.
2. Exclusion of Anti-Social Forces
In accordance with Japanese ordinances, ESTATESJAPAN has a zero-tolerance policy towards organized crime. We strictly refuse to do business with Anti-Social Forces (反社会的勢力), including organized crime groups, corporate extortionists, or any affiliated individuals. Contracts will be immediately terminated if a party is found to have such affiliations.
3. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) & KYC
We strictly enforce "Know Your Customer" (KYC) protocols to prevent money laundering and the financing of terrorism. For high-value transactions, cross-border investments, and property purchases, we require thorough identity verification and may request documentation confirming the legitimate source of funds.
4. Fair and Transparent Transactions
We prioritize our clients' best interests while maintaining fairness to all parties involved in a transaction. We prohibit discriminatory practices, undisclosed conflicts of interest, and the manipulation of property information.
5. Confidentiality
All officers and employees of ESTATESJAPAN are bound by strict confidentiality obligations regarding client information and transaction details, both during and after their employment.
