Using Richgo from overseas
How can I research Korean real estate in English?
Start with the Richgo apartment map in English, choose an area such as Seoul, Busan or Incheon, and select an apartment community. Compare its recorded transactions, current asking prices and price charts. Property names remain in Korean so they can be matched to local addresses.
How do I compare apartment prices in Seoul?
Compare apartments in the same area and use the same transaction type and floor area. Open a community to review dated transactions and charts rather than treating a city-wide average as the price of an individual home. An asking price is a seller’s advertised price, not a completed transaction.
What do jeonse, wolse and pyeong mean?
Jeonse is a rental arrangement based on a substantial refundable deposit. Wolse refers to monthly rent, usually with a deposit. Pyeong is an area unit of approximately 3.3058 square metres. Check whether an area is exclusive-use or includes shared space before comparing homes.
What can I explore on Richgo?
Richgo provides Korean apartment maps, property details, recorded transaction prices, asking prices, estimates and price charts. Open the map to explore a neighborhood and select an apartment community.
Are prices in US dollars?
No. Prices are in Korean won (KRW). A recorded transaction, an asking price and a Richgo estimate describe different things. Check the price label and date before comparing values.
Why are property names still in Korean?
Korean names and addresses are retained so you and an agent can identify the same property. You can use the English interface to explore its details and charts.
Can I contact Richgo without a Korean phone number?
Yes. Email patrick@dataknows.ai with your preferred language, area or property, and what you need. English, Chinese and Japanese email responses can be supported by AI-assisted translation.
Does Richgo act as my real estate broker?
Richgo handles initial enquiries and is preparing introductions to independent real estate agencies. Richgo does not provide brokerage services directly. An introduction depends on agency availability and is not guaranteed.
