Under the Certified Real Estate Agent Act (공인중개사법 시행규칙): (1) Residential Sales/Purchases: under 50M (0.6%, cap 250k), 50M-200M (0.5%, cap 800k), 200M-900M (0.4%), 900M-1.2B (0.5%), 1.2B-1.5B (0.6%), over 1.5B (0.7%); (2) Residential Leases (Jeonse/Wolse): under 50M (0.5%, cap 200k), 50M-100M (0.4%, cap 300k), 100M-600M (0.3%), 600M-1.2B (0.4%), 1.2B-1.5B (0.5%), over 1.5B (0.6%).
How is transaction value determined for monthly Wolse leases?
Transaction Value = `Deposit + (Monthly Rent × 100)`. However, if the resulting transaction value is less than KRW 50,000,000, a reduced formula must be used: `Deposit + (Monthly Rent × 70)`.
Is Value Added Tax (VAT) added to the brokerage fee in Korea?
Yes. Real estate agency brokerage commission is subject to VAT. General taxable agencies charge 10% VAT on top of the fee. Simplified taxable agencies (간이과세자) charge 4% VAT.
Who pays the brokerage fee in a Korean property transaction?
Both parties (buyer and seller, or landlord and tenant) pay the calculated brokerage commission separately to the certified broker.
Can a client negotiate a lower brokerage fee than the statutory maximum rate?
Yes. The statutory rates defined in the regulations represent the legal upper ceilings (상한요율). Clients and brokers can negotiate a lower commission rate prior to signing the brokerage contract.
