Affordable Akiya Investment

Invest in Japan, Make an Impact.
Are you looking for a stable investment that offers more than just financial returns? Japan is currently facing a serious social issue with millions of “Akiya” (vacant houses). This investment is a unique opportunity to help solve this national problem while building your wealth.
For international investors, we particularly recommend “Tenanted Properties” as a smart entry point. These properties allow you to keep initial purchase costs low and eliminate the risk of finding tenants, ensuring a stable start to your Japanese real estate portfolio.
By purchasing these homes, you contribute to preserving Japanese neighborhoods while securing immediate income. We specialize in connecting you with affordable, high-yield properties in Tochigi Prefecture—creating a win-win solution for both you and Japan.

Here is an example of a “Tenanted Property” (known as “Owner-Change” in Japan) currently available in Tochigi Prefecture. This means buying a house that already has a tenant living in it. You take over the rights and obligations as the landlord, including the rental income, immediately upon purchase.

Case Study: Used Detached House in Tochigi

Running Costs & Taxes:

・Monthly Management Fee: Approx. 4,000 JPY
・Remittance Fee: Fees via WISE (for overseas transfer)
・Annual Taxes: Fixed Asset Tax & City Planning Tax (Once a year)
・Tax Filing: Income tax filing support by a tax accountant is available for approx. 50,000 JPY/year.

Immediate Income: You start receiving rent from the day of the handover. No waiting period for tenants

No Renovation Costs: Since a tenant is already living there, no immediate renovation is required.
Low Risk: You avoid the vacancy risk and the hassle of searching for new tenants.

If you are looking for higher potential returns through renovation,

vacant “Akiya” properties are also an excellent choice.
Lowest Entry Price: Vacant houses are often sold at even lower prices than tenanted properties.
Value Appreciation: You can increase the property’s value and rent potential through strategic renovations.
Flexibility: You have the freedom to renovate the property to your taste and select your own tenants.

We don’t just sell properties; we are your local partner in Japan.

Finding the Right Property: Whether you prefer the stability of a tenanted property or the potential of a vacant Akiya, we find the best match for you.
Renovation & Tenant Recruitment: For vacant properties, we handle all necessary renovations and find reliable tenants.
Apartment Buildings: We can introduce a wide range of properties, from single detached houses to apartment buildings (from 4 units to large-scale complexes).
