A certificate of a Japanese Real Estate Transaction Manager I've studied to get a certificate of a real estate transaction manager for several months because I'm working in the real estate department of my company. While I've been interested in buildings and urban planning since I was a student, I had not had lots of knowledge about real estate transactions by the time I started to study for the certificate. Through learning about real estate transactions, I found that various taxes are imposed on not only real state buyers, sellers, and holders but also those who gave or get property charge of free. I didn't know that people have to pay so many kinds of taxes regarding real estate transactions. However, I also learned that there are a variety of specific exceptions and reductions to the tax rates. Average people may not be familiar with ways to reduce the taxes, but I would make use of my knowledge and save money if I had real estate.
