      Dare I ask, if a person pays good money for the insight offered in your course elsewhere, how then can one reconcile the key components being thrown out there gratis? Does one not cut off one's nose to spite ones own face? Does one not kneecap his own efforts while disenfranchising the very viewership and paying customer he seeks to engender? I question most politely, the wisdom of this. Perhaps reconsider your present course? Shooting of both feet seems unwise.

      The biggest challenge is having the thought of if you really wanna actually live in that house for the rest of your life, as they’re not worth anything. I work in a relatively large company and so it will be easy to get financing and the interest rate are cheap. However, unlike the United States, it will be a challenge to sell a house and the price will never go up. Also houses here are small and if you want a house with a yard and a garage to put your car and tools, it’s going to be difficult as well

    Super informative video! I’d like to know how the difference is with an apartment? If you want to start small. How do you calculate rent, what are the problems you can face since the room is yours but not the building? Can you renovate the room however you want? What about the aftermath of you purchasing something? How do you rent out your property. How do you pay tax. How do you makes sure your tenants can pay there rent/ contract etc. Thank you again for such amazing videos!

    • @shumatsuopost
      @shumatsuopost  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for your kind words! I personally don't recommend investing in apartment units because you don't have much control unless you own the whole building. Tenants - you want to have a good screening system.

      ​​⁠​⁠​⁠lol. This is the last guy that you should refer to anybody.
      Remember this guy boast that he owns multiple family housing units in countries that are suffering from high rent and house prices because in those countries, they don’t have the same philosophy like Japan when building houses.
      He’s hardly an expert, just a regular guy who’s taking advantage of people, he just speaks English and Japanese. Once he find you an “investment” house it’s your problem all the way, which he doesn’t cover everything in any videos that he made.
      In Japan there’s a saying, “Prepare to lose it all”.
      Remember if anything happens to a house, flooding, landslide, volcanic eruptions, tsunami and earthquake, when your insurance doesn’t pay the value of what you spent, you’re SOL. That $250,000 you spent isn’t much when you build a new house in Japan.
      Land that doesn’t have a house in it will pay “six times” the property taxes.
      The houses that he’s advertising is being sold for a reason. It’s not viable long term to be it being in your name, either because it’s a dying town due to low birth. There’s a reason that municipalities all over in Japan are having a hard time finding the owners of these houses. The sellers are selling them because it’s a money sink for them since there’s no industry to support them. It’s happening within Tokyo metropolis itself.
      Houses in Japan is more of a liability since Japan is not building what it really need, which is a “business industry”. The industry who will raise land prices in the places that having abandoned housing crisis.
      What are you really buying in Japan is the price of the land and the “hope” that someday Japan will get their💩 together so the land prices go up.
      It’s up for you to decide if you want to “invest” your money. There’s a very high probability you will end up like the one who’s selling the house because it became a burden or the one whose municipalities having a hard time to look for you because they can’t find you because you “abandoned” it.
      Oh, may I remind everybody that the “Big One” is coming.

    Why don't properties here in Japan appreciate over time? We always hear that they don't but never an explanation, except from that one French guy that you interviewed awhile ago who said houses here don't appreciate simply cause owners in Japan don't do regular upkeeping and renovations, unlike owners abroad. Any thoughts?

      @Ninsidhe หลายเดือนก่อน

      So you’re planning on doing the same thing that is destroying housing in western countries because it’s too expensive to buy a house now in western countries? How unsurprising- cashing in on a country that you have ZERO intention to give back to. Utterly gross. I hope Japan closes its doors to this kind of culture destroying scam.

    If I rent an apartment, how can I receive the rent money if I don't have a bank account in Japan? Is it possible to open a bank account as a foreigner?

    • @shumatsuopost
      @shumatsuopost  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, it is. If you're not a resident, you would need to form an entity. You could also have a rental property without a Japanese bank account. You'd just need to hire a property manager that can send you money overseas.

      $20K to buy and renovate? Might be possible but very unlikely to meet your criteria.
