In a remarkable showcase of innovation in the real estate sector, Kachi Jutaku Inc., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, has recently celebrated a significant milestone: their AI-based furniture removal service has surpassed 200 registered users within just two weeks of its launch. Initially developed for franchise members associated with their nationwide real estate sales network, "Baikyaku no Madoguchi®", this state-of-the-art service is now being offered for free to all real estate agencies, creating a ripple effect in the industry.
The AI furniture removal service, aptly named "Kagu Keshi" (furniture removal), utilizes cutting-edge technology to eliminate existing furniture from property images, providing an unobstructed view of the interior spaces—critical in ensuring privacy when homes are still occupied. As reported by early adopters, the benefits have been immediate and profound.
1.
Enhanced Marketing Potential: For properties still lived in, showcasing interior images has traditionally posed privacy concerns. However, with "Kagu Keshi," real estate listings can now include these essential images, inviting more potential buyers.
2.
Increased Engagement: Listings featuring more photographs tend to attract greater interest, leading to a higher number of inquiries and showings. This enhanced visual appeal is crucial in today's competitive market.
3.
Changing Perceptions: The service allows for the dismantling of negative stereotypes related to occupied homes that may appear untidy or lived in. Buyers often form biases against properties that show signs of daily life, and the technology combats this by presenting a cleaner, more appealing view.
4.
Visualizing Renovations: Prospective buyers benefit from a pre-purchase understanding of what renovations could look like, thus enhancing their purchasing confidence and vision.
5.
Management of Vacant Properties: With many vacant homes featuring leftover furnishings unsuitable for showings, "Kagu Keshi" offers a valuable solution by allowing agents to market these properties more effectively.
The introduction of free services extends beyond just furniture removal. In tandem with this initiative, Kachi Jutaku has also launched an optional subscription service for "Virtual Home Staging," providing an even broader range of tools for agents to market properties compellingly.
About Baikyaku no Madoguchi®: Launched as a response to growing concerns over the used housing market, this service aims to build consumer confidence in purchasing pre-owned homes. Recognized by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of Japan, the initiative promotes property evaluations through rigorous inspections and dedicated systems to enhance transparency in real estate transactions.
For a more immersive experience in property marketing, agents and companies can apply for the furniture removal service through their official site:
