Very nice he was allowed to just buy via bank transfer, when I was considering it in Europe they wanted to force me to work with banks and get a mortgage because of deals they have under the hood. I’ll may give it a go in Japan now that I got Permanent Residency.

@@unixtreme Yeah it's a different case depending on the seller/agent. Things like this are a little troublesome for Japanese at times, but some are willing to jump over the extra hurdles while some may not. It is what it is. Everything went smooth with Manuel giving him the biggest smile ever. :)

remember even if you own land in Japan the Japanese government can stop giving you a visa at anytime and getting a retirement visa is almost impossible, residency is very difficult. Love Japan lived there 1965 to 1977, before most foreigners ever thought of Japan.

have things not changed since 1977 in terms of the visa situation. If anything Japan needs massive immigration to keep itself from becoming a small back water country within the next 20 to 30 years.

Very good interview! I am curious which bank is good to use if you have Mexican pesos and want to buy a property in Japan. Wise, or any other bank you recommend?

@shumatsuopost

6 ай бұрын

Wise or Revolut

If you would like to live in one of those tiny apartments for 300,- a month. What exactly do you have to do?

I'm setting up a company in japan and in the final process for my business manager visa. i also secured an akiya in Yamanashi prefecture as the home-office. the process of obtaining a home-office is more tricky than buying an akiya for personal.

Thank for replying. I am currently based in Singapore but I will be flying back to Japan on 4th Jan to 9th Jan to start my visa screening process and my next akiya viewing in Yamanashi. After that I will await for the visa result and will fly back to Japan for longer stay to kick start my business in Japan. Sure, I'm ok for an interview., let me know which period would be good to meet up with you. @@shumatsuopost

I have been looking for Ikea house in Japan and I found one I would like to purchase that property could you please suggest me the agents that could help me do this

Congrats Manuel. That feel when i have been visiting Japan almost annually since 2009, n i have yet to hop on the boat to have a small home there(i probably just need a small cottage/cabin) 😵‍💫 So, does Wise can work similarly like how Revolut worked for Manuel? or Wise is a no go?

Wise works for me, I use it in japan. For me, it is limited to 1mil yen per transaction, but an unlimited amount of times. It saved me $3-4K this last year versus using my bank rate.

anyone can buy a properrty in japan, and most parts of the world as long you have the $$. Thhe big question is how are you gonna stay there longer time than your visa allow to..

If we bought a house and lot in Japan can the Japanese gov’t give us a visa to stay for how long ? As a foreigner with a property in Japan what visa they will give us.Thanks Matsuo san

wait does this mean i can use this revolut account to run a business in Japan?

Cheap houses have nothing to do with 200k

that is a very beautiful house! what a lucky bast... man!

i've been looking at houses in osaka and find the staircases in japan houses to be killers. The stair tread is more narrow than i'm used to and they're so steep and narrow. some don't even have a handrail to hold onto going down. i found a house with an elevator and i made an offer for it but the owner didn't accept. The owner did a bunch of diy crap and destroyed the wiring. He even drilled a hole in the stairs to feed up an ethernet cable to the upstairs. Its literally coming thru a stair tread and there are a/c wires dangling in the garage. if you're buying with us dollars hurry up and exchange them for yen. the dollar is getting weaker by the day

Good video. Its real in Japan, i both an Akiya house, from owner directly with no real estate involved. Its really working in Japan.

Question: is it possible to buy a property without being physically in Japan, or do you need to go and sign the papers? Also, do you need to be able to understand Japanese? Thanks, great interview.

@KickAssets

I'd say pretty much impossible. Most agents won't bother with that. It's already hard enough for some. You don't need Japanese and that's where I helped manuel through the whole process. Knowing Japanese goes a long way tho.

Well he's right. The fees from most of traditional banks would be higher on 160k. Like a few thousands.

120,000 GBP is a bargain to be just 35 mins outside a city like Tokyo

It just occurred to me Japan is the safest most distant place from the states if you're in the witness protection program.
