Barocontract

Direct rental contracts in Korea, checked — no broker fee

Renting directly from the landlord?
Check it, then get the contract

We check the building register, the property registry and real transaction prices for you.

Type the address and we'll check whether the home, shop or office lease looks safe

Examples

Type the address in Korean, as written on the listing (e.g. 명물길 27-18 or 창천동 45-9). English addresses can't be searched yet.

Renting without an agent? Check at least these

  1. Type the address

    We find the exact building with the official road-name address data, then check how the home may be used in the building register (건축물대장). If it's registered as a neighborhood facility (근린생활시설) and not a home, we tell you right away.

  2. Compare the deposit with market prices

    We calculate the deposit-to-price ratio (전세가율) from real deals in the same building or similar-size homes over the last 12 months. If the deposit is too high compared to the home's price, there is a deposit-loss risk (깡통전세).

  3. Check rights in the registry

    Upload the registry PDF you viewed yourself, and we explain the owner, mortgages (근저당), seizures and trusts in plain words. We skip old cancelled records and only show what is valid now.
