Jikbang Unveils Personalized Apartment Recommendation Service

## Zigbang Leads Innovation in 'Consumer-Centric' Apartment Search: Launches Customized Property Recommendation Service for Newlyweds Searching for a home used to be an experience more often characterized by daunting uncertainty than by excitement. Especially, the domestic apartment brokerage market has until now been trapped in an antiquated 'listing-centric' approach, failing to truly listen to the voices of those searching for homes. The reality was that not only did it involve the hassle of individually visiting brokers at every apartment complex in areas of interest, but it was also difficult to receive expert assistance before deciding on a specific complex. Now, Zigbang, a leading proptech company, has issued a challenge to these long-standing practices. Zigbang has announced that it will change the paradigm of the real estate brokerage market by introducing an innovative service that recommends customized properties to each individual apartment seeker and accompanies them throughout the entire home search process. **The perfect home for you, now receive proposals!** Zigbang has partnered with professional affiliated brokers of 'Zigbang Real Estate Brokerage Partners' to launch a property recommendation and in-depth consultation service that perfectly matches the individual conditions of tenants and buyers. The core of this service is that instead of customers passively searching for homes that meet their desired conditions, they can now actively receive various alternative proposals. The first step in this innovative journey begins with the 'Find My Newlywed Home' service for 'newlyweds' searching for apartment properties in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. Consultations can be easily requested via the 'Find My Newlywed Home' banner within the Zigbang or Hogangnono apps. **A Smart Home Search Journey with Experts** Affiliated brokers go beyond simple property information, comprehensively considering customers' budgets, desired floor areas, location conditions, as well as detailed lifestyle aspects like pet ownership. Based on this, they select and propose optimal apartment complexes and customized property lists. They accompany clients through every step, from the property search phase to on-site visits and final decision-making, providing in-depth consultations at each stage. Particularly during the contract phase, they provide generous support including contract drafting, meticulous review, and even expert consultation on special clauses requiring coordination with the landlord/seller, thereby alleviating customer anxiety and facilitating secure transactions. **Reduce Time and Effort, Enhance Quality of Choice** This new service offers customers overwhelming convenience. With just one request, customers can receive tailored property recommendations that perfectly match their situation and conditions, drastically reducing the time and effort spent physically searching or browsing the internet. Furthermore, the ability to compare and analyze properties from various apartment complexes in one place enables smarter decisions, leading to a significant improvement in the quality of housing choices. The convenience of communicating with experts anytime, anywhere via the mobile non-face-to-face consultation tool 'Brokerage Live' is also highlighted as a major advantage. Ahn Sung-woo, CEO of Zigbang, emphasized that this service will change the paradigm of the real estate market. He stated, "Home seekers, as important parties in real estate transactions, rightfully deserve reliable, high-quality service from brokers," and expressed his ambition, "By providing detailed, customized consultations at each stage of home searching, we will offer a more efficient and satisfying housing choice experience not only to newlyweds but also to a wider range of customers." The future of the 'consumer-centric' real estate brokerage market being opened by Zigbang is highly anticipated.
