My personal philosophy is “Rent where you live. Own where you rent.” I’ve never owned my primary home and I prefer renting where I live because I value flexibility to move whenever. But if you’re going to live in the same house for many years, owning might not be a bad idea, in my opinion.
Totally agree with you. As you said, house prices are so low in Japan which is amazing. You can get such a nice house in Tokyo or Osaka for a great price and it's super safe and convenient.
Very good to know, yes I agree on investment in the US to be super transparent. I have 2 houses in the DC metro area and the market here are constantly changing, but is mostly insulated from larger downturns. I agree with one of your previous videos that immigration is key to helping the housing and population crisis recover.
Thanks for sharing. I recently read an interesting book called Nomad Century by Gaia Vince. It's more about migration in the near future but definitely made me think of where I want to live and invest for long term.
Tourism in Japan is picking up again in 2023 - is investing in Japanese real estate a GOOD idea? FREE GUIDE: How to Buy an Akiya as a Foreigner: stan.store/shumatsuopost
I'm from China and Chinese real estate is facing similar situation of Japan 20 years ago. The population is declining and people are earning less money. I’m not sure if it’s a good decision to lower my price of my house for sale.
Depopulation leads to economic decline which leads to declining housing prices. The governments lack of any successful policy to counteract this indicates this trend will.continue..
The population of my city has reduced but the number of houses has increased both by quite a large percentage. Japanese are now increasingly living in homes apart from their in-laws. Buy in major cities and prefectural capitals and you’ll be fine. I have 6 cheap apartments rentals and am looking to buy more.
Assisted living has and will always be a dominating cash 💸 investment 👌. Purchasing homes that have a rental cap less than 2% makes nonsense 😂. Granted, there are diamonds you can capitalize on.. Just how much you are willing to spend for the management fee and don't forget about the tax!!! Japan is a fantastic market to invest in, although it is just how you structure the deal/ownership/management/trust agreement. Japan is a long term plan... Just my take so far.
Lots of people invest in Japanese real estate. If you are from Europe or North America and have a pension with a big pensions group, there’s a good chance you are invested in it too! In a tiny way…
I also live in Japan and completely agree with you in terms of investment. However I still have to live here and rent for family housing under 1hour commute to Marunouchi-area is way over priced. Do you have recommendation on weather new family should buy a house or not and if so, where would be a good choice?(kind of waiting for real-estate price to crash to buy house in Setagaya-area)

japan used to be the 3rd largest economy in the world, this is now the 4th, the EU is a single market and its economy is much bigger than Japan, this counts as a full economy where trade borders are not needed for 27 EU member states, hence it’s 1 economy, freedom of movement, peopl and services 🎉
Can u suggest, i am resident at Tokyo , I was thinking to buy apartment but 8 drop this idea as property price go down , so i decided better to live in rented house

Absolutely!

Very good info here, I've always wondered why there's a deflation here but with that data it makes sense
Thanks for watching! What country are you investing in?
@@shumatsuopost I'm from the US and I'm investing in Las Vegas and Alabama right now
Great markets🙌🏼 it sounds like you and I have a lot in common 😉

That's interesting. Thank you for sharing the insight about China.
Real estate agents in japan all tell me prices have gone up in the past two years. Is that inaccurate in your opinions?
I think they're only talking about selected areas. They do exist but very small areas of the country. As a whole, prices are going down.
isn’t it weird to make videos on people buying home in japan and talk about how easy it is then also have a video saying how bad it is
You know in the 70s homes in the US were almost nothing. Today, they're insanely high priced. So, buy high, sell low.
Thank you very much brother!
Thanks for watching!
From what I am getting, do not buy real estate in Japan. Buy land and build your own properties.
I think that's what a lot of people in Japan do with their primary homes.

I have found headwinds moving to Japan such as overpriced, underserving Japanese shipping companies...

It really depends on why you want to buy a house. Is it for you to live in it? If so, how long will you live? Will you stay in Japan for a long time?
@@shumatsuopost it's been 3 yrs and still no plan to go back, as i giving over 100000 rental per month decide to buy apartment to save those rent
Gigachad Jaw
I take that as a compliment? :)
@@shumatsuopost it is a huge compliment lol
… yeah, I’m going to start lobbying to get rid of foreign and commercial investors…
"Japan has four seasons" did you lose a bet and were forced to say that?
