For “Reshop Navi” users, when utilizing the “Immediate Receipt of Construction Fee” service with their chosen remodeling company, there is no need to pay any deposit. Instead, the full payment is charged after the completion of the construction, enabling a more reassuring remodeling experience.
■The background of the service launch
Lately, the number of bankruptcies in the construction and remodeling industry has been increasing due to factors such as rising prices and labor shortages. According to surveys, there were 82 bankruptcies from January to October 2023, marking the highest pace since statistics began in 2002(*2). For many remodeling companies facing financial difficulties, improving cash flow is an urgent issue.

However, fraud by unscrupulous remodeling companies has always been present, and the common practice of paying deposits for construction fees has become one of the concerns for users in the remodeling industry. Therefore, to support remodeling companies in their funding while ensuring peace of mind for users during remodeling, a business alliance with Mynavibridge Corporation was formed, leading to the launch of this service.
“Reshop Navi” will continue to grow into Japan’s largest platform, allowing users to remodel with even greater peace of mind and satisfaction while enabling registered companies to attract customers more efficiently.
