We support akiya investment but only on a fee basis (YouTube)

Are you interested in Akiya ?

We receive an inquiry almost everyday about akiya investment.

They are mainly from western countries such as US,  Canada and Australia.

Almost everyone just wants to buy a cheap akiya house for their financial benefit.

But akiya investment is not easy.

The stickiest issue is the renovation cost.

It could be very significant and a way more than the value of the houses.

We don’t search akiya for free.

If you want to buy akiya,  you need to hire me on a fee basis

otherwise please contact other agents who can handle akiya on a commission basis.

(but I do not think there is any)

 

You need to understand how the Japanese system works and the traps and

challenges that exist.

Akiya (unused house) is cheap for a reason !

 

Please watch my YouTube video for more details.

How many AKIYAS are there in Japan now ? : New survey was released

Truth to be told.

1 in 7 homes across the country is empty.

Around 5 million of Japan’s vacant homes are intended for future sale or rental.

The phenomenon is a function of a declining population and the continued pace of housing construction.

Despite being the world’s third-largest economy, Japan’s population has been shrinking since 2010.

The population is also getting older.

A new survey shows the problem is far greater than expected.

The government recently announced the new survey result about akiya (unused house)

According to the Housing and Land Statistics Survey in October 2018 announced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, the ratio of akiya (unused house)  to the total number of dwellings in the country was a record high of 13.6%

,meaning 1 in 7 homes across the country is empty.
