Pricing details

Frequently asked questions

Start with 3 free searches. Compare the exact limits and charge before you choose.

How are free searches counted?

A free account includes 3 starter searches. One is used when a new text-and-image query combination successfully returns results. Repeating the exact same query does not use another search. You can also earn extra searches by completing the one-time missions in your account settings, like saving properties or sharing a list.

What currency will I actually pay?

Stripe charges the exact JPY price shown first on each paid plan. USD amounts are estimates only, and your card issuer determines the final conversion rate and any foreign-exchange fees.

Can I cancel a subscription?

Yes. Monthly plans renew automatically and can be canceled before the next renewal through the Stripe billing portal. Access continues until the end of the paid billing period.

Are payments refundable?

Payments for this digital service are non-refundable except where required by law. Review the total shown at checkout before purchasing.

What does Homebuyer Lifetime include?

It is a one-time purchase for lifetime access to the current Homebuyer feature set. It costs ¥860 less than 8 monthly Homebuyer payments. Investor criteria, 10-property comparison, and CSV export are not included.
