Where we own
We do not publish information that could identify individual properties.

Services
Consultations are held in English or Japanese.
Japanese property documents can be hard to evaluate if you are not used to local assumptions about rent, repairs, insurance, disaster exposure, management companies and resale. Our role is to organize the risks and the questions you should verify. We do not tell you which property to buy. Consultations are handled by the person who manages our own properties.
