Overseas real estate buyers now see Japan as a place to buy.
Recently, I interviewed four foreign investors who are pursuing properties in Japan. Three of them are doing it while living abroad.
So in my next video, these investors will uncover why they’re investing in Japanese real estate now and how they’re navigating the process.
Enjoy!

Just some constructive criticism, I think this is a great idea for a video. But spending the first 20 mins on Daniele who has no bank account which means he has submitted zero offers, has zero actual investments in Japan. I’d love to hear his experience two years from now regardless of whether it was a success or a failure. We can all learn from his experiences. But at the moment, he’s just a guy talking about his “investment strategy” that he has never tested out
Agreed, some of his points he is talking out of his ass. Thailand is not good returns by any means. Vietnam and Indo is tricky as well.
AGREED, I'd like to hear from more failures than Beginning stage stories to learn more about the hard side of these Akiya Investment risks and procedures.
you don't need a bank account to buy in Japan. speaking from experience.
"200+ properties in Japan" - a little misleading isn't it mate?
We are building a house in Tokyo, the total cost will be north of 100 million. Prices in Tokyo 23-ku have gone up significantly in the last 1-2 years, mansions are starting to become unaffordable for the average Japanese resident. Because of the weak yen, foreign buyers are pushing prices higher and causing shortages. This in mainly true for Tokyo proper but happening in other areas also.
Most Japanese properties are not investment grade. Outside of the central Tokyo area it’s difficult to get roi because rental housing outside is generally affordable and plentiful. If you’re buying for yourself as a residence or second home it’s one thing, but houses in Japan are generally considered a “commodity” and have a limited shelf life in the eyes of most Japanese. Sure you can pick up an akiya for very little upfront cash but they’ll generally be further outside major population centers and by the time you do the renovations to make them livable, you can often buy a newer home closer to the city.
I like how the USA guy said No-one come here. Stay where you are.
He gave some authentic, realistic and practical advice after.. (travel live within your means etc..) & This country suits my personality. That was good too.

Thanks for watching!
I’d love to hear more from YY Yang and Ben particularly their portfolio and Singapore properties😊
Just to put things in context, 6 private properties in Singapore are probably worth at least USD 3 million easily. The cheapest private properties (condominiums) are around SGD 600,000 (USD 450,000) without renovation, taxes and other necessary fees. These are 1 bedroom apartments which are not in the central areas.
Depending on the location, leasehold (99 year, 999 year, freehold), total area and amenities, the prices increase dramatically.
Expect to pay around SGD 1.5 million (USD 1.11 million) for a 3 bedroom condominium apartment.
As Singaporean citizens, there are also additional taxes on top of each additional property you buy, which dramatically increases the cost (20% for your 2nd property, 30% for your 3rd property and subsequent ones).
They might also have a mixture of residential and commercial/ industrial properties.
Of course, they might have secured great financing arrangements, but it is really impressive.
Remember, house if being properly built, always outlive you, a property with rental value can secure your long retirement!
Japanese houses normally have a 20 year life span
And...property in Japan has a 1000 year tradition of NOT increasing in value...like the US. We bought or 4 bedroom home in Southern California in 2001...for $290K...now it's worth $900K plus. Helloooo!
@@samhodson6470 I live near London it’s crazy expensive too and even though my house has gained in value it’s relatively useless as every other house has too.
I hope Japan does not go though the same craziness as it’s so unfair on the average Japanese family.
I love Japan for the people not the property. And resentment to tourists will spread to foreigners buying up properties (though it’s not as good an investment as they think, u less you know the culture and language very well even then rent is low especially on older properties).
Amazing one! Looking forward to the training session.
Hope you enjoy it!
As someone that is moving to Japan in a few months and looking into starting real estate investments there, this video was super great to hear mindsets of outside investors.
Would be great to understand the best ways to find renovation specialists in Japan.
Keep up the great work mate!
Glad it was helpful!
Japan property does not increase in value...so it's not really an investment.
I love to watch your videos. Although I do have an out of the box request, it would be great if you could throw some light in property investments in the chugoku area? Is it advisable or worth it and when can be practically expect a reasonable ROI ? Thanks in advance for any pointers from your side. Cheers!!
Great video Shu, thank you 😊
Any time!
haven't seen all of the video yet, so I may be speaking off topic... but in my opinion, it really messed up to see foreigners monopolize Japan. Here in the states, there is already an unfair renting market. Now imagine you're some Japanese guy who has been working his whole life to buy a house, but he can only afford renting from some person who doesn't even live in Japan.
I can understand moving to Japan if you love the country, but owning multiple properties and hiking up the prices is crazy
I was thinking the same thing. They are causing the same problem in Japan that we have in the US. Makes me think that Japan might change the laws on non-citizen house purchases at some point
I lived in Japan for 7 years (in the late 90s) and plan to move back within the next 4 years permanently for semi-retirement. I am very curious how rental returns compare by area in and around tokyo. The higher-end properties in central tokyo do not seem to be good investments based on what I have seen in terms of return on capital and potential for depreciation. That said, the less expensive segment that you explore in this video may present higher returns. Curious what return these investors are targeting.
Idk japanses but if ever learn it should i move in japan i want a peacfull life
Hi Shu Matsuo! Thanks for posting this video. I'm a first time visitor to your channel and you definitely have my subscription and thumbs up! I wonder could you help me with a question in regards to the properties showcased in this video? What is the average rental return for one of these homes selling for around $150k and what kind of vacancy rates can you expect? I'm from Australia where a gross yield of 6-7% is considered good, however competition is high and vacancy rates can be as low as less than 0.1% in many areas due to the housing crisis in my country. Looking forward to your response and more videos!
Great testimonies for those of us residing outside of JPN!
Not gonna to comment on the investment part of it, but JPN is an idea country for a second vacation home!
Am planning to visit Gunma prefecture in late-Jan ’24 and hopefully will find ours!
So much looking forward to ur course on Jan 4th and perhaps securing ur service together w/ Collin then! Cheers!
Thanks for watching!
I would like to inquire whether it is necessary to acquire an Akiya property through an auction process. Is this the standard procedure, or are there alternative methods for purchasing Akiya properties? I am curious about any differences between Akiya, Kominka and Machiya?
Ben and YY were so cool! The positivity was just oozing from them. It's infectious.
Yeah, they're awesome. I'm excited to interview them in 7 years to see what their portfolio will look like!
How the fuck they afford 6 flats in Singapore is beyond me, either golden spoon or he’s a mad realtor/tech bro
Nice presentation. How about visas ?
Is there any extra stamp duties (60% for example) for Singaporeans buyers?
Totally enjoyed your video and I can not to come and search for houses to buy in beautiful JAPAN!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Shu, could you comment about real estate and natural disasters like earthquakes. Thanks!
Doing a video on that - coming out soon :)
the 18th century american flag was a nice touch :)
🤣🤣🤣
I am planning to vacation for 8 weeks in Japan with my 9 year old June-aug 2024. I am an investor in the states and I plan to view some akiya home while there. would you please refer to me some agents and people who can help us navigate around Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka please.
Shu-san, random question, do you have takken? if not, do you find any issues not having it when investing/dealing with real estate agents
What’s takken?
There is no issues not having takken when investing/dealing with agents at all.
@@adrianm4506cTakken is Japan’s Real Estate Brokerage License to act in the capacity of a broker and conduct Real Estate transactions.
It be good to catch up with Daniele. Very interesting!
Glad you like it!
Hi Shu, Can you make a program which is the best way to invest from US? I am really interest to buy real estate in Japan, but don't know how to form a company and what kind of company... etc and which company form is best in US. to invest Japan real estate.
You can fill out one of these forms so I can help you:
Akiya Income Generator (for rental properties): forms.gle/7ySUCdpiLVy9mHoy9
Japan Akiya Assist (for vacation homes): forms.gle/1A7FHHJxqHfuuUjh7
cash purchases nil debt leverage, depreciation of yen, population decline, economic decline, earthquakes?
good to invest if doing BNB or as holiday home, but otherwise i see limited upside as investment.
December 7th?
Location location location. They are $150K homes for a reason.
How to go broke asap, featuring Su
Im buying as many properties in Japan!!!!!!!!
Love to hear that!
Shu Matsuo speaks perfect American English, better than most of the guests and the guy who claims to be from California but in reality is probably an immigrant from the U.S
People don't realize that old houses can be renovated (or repainted) but the construction is 30 or more years old = rusted internal foundation & concrete that has turned into crumbs.
30 years on a house isn’t very old. Are they just poorly designed?
Only time will reveal whether it was wise to buy properties in Japan.
If you're buying more than one property and solely as investment tool (like playing the stock exchange), YOU ARE THE REASON half the first world can no longer afford to live close to work or in the city they grew up in. One day those people will feel the wrath of Karma for pricing people out of their homes.
Get off your soap box. These people are buying houses no one wants and renovating them lol that alone refutes your argument. I understand what you’re saying but that isn’t what’s happening here. Taking otherwise uninhabitable homes and renting them out for the equivalent of $300-$500 a month is both stimulating the economy and bringing affordable housing to people struggling to find it.
Japanese wish they can go to usa and Australia though its not good working there
It is it’s just hard to find a job right now. Once you have a job the work culture is quite positive.

I'm really not a fan of this video. The last one was much more interesting. I don't want to hear from investors. I want to hear from people moving there to actually live, not just exploit the market.
This is a channel dedicated to real estate investing. Also, since when is investing considered exploitation? That’s broke people talk.
I just want one home. Can the rent seekers just go away please!
OK 200? Bro there should be some sort of limit lol that's a bit much
Far too much, 199 households working to pay these guys rent..
Why should there be a limit? And what should that limit be?
Clickbait title. They don’t have 200 properties
There should be a limit. Not trying to have chinese own japan
There’s some 10 million abandoned houses in Japan right now. They don’t need to limit it. It’ll take decades for that number to drop any significant amount.
Lol if you can understand the Japanese videos you can literally do the same videos in English and catch more viewers
Too much blah blah
The last guy was off-putting.
Some of us *will* be rushing to Japan and investing in properties too. Deal with it.
