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.
