Home Care
Own a home in Japan? We look after it, even from overseas.
One invoice a month. Bills, taxes, insurance and setup, all handled for you.
Why it’s hard
Owning a home here from far away is a lot to manage.
All in Japanese
Utility bills, tax notices and offices are almost always in Japanese only.
Rules for non-residents
Owners living abroad need a foreign exchange filing and a tax representative in Japan.
No one nearby
When something needs to be done at the house, you’re on the other side of the world.
The Basic Plan
Everything your home needs to run.
Foreign exchange filing
We file the required notice for non-resident buyers (外為法).
Tax representation
We handle your yearly property tax and the one-time acquisition tax.
Fire & earthquake insurance
Coverage arranged for fire, earthquake and other disasters.
Utilities
We connect electricity, water and gas, and pay the bills for you.
Internet & WiFi
We set up your provider so WiFi is ready when you arrive.
Key box
We install a key box by the door and photograph the property.
Utility and tax bills are scanned and sent to you with English summaries.
