    I remember just a few yrs ago, Shu started this channel w/ a negative view toward Japanese real estate, glad you changed your mind and now an audience get to &quot;check out&quot; all the positives...Re Fukuoka, would be nice to see some props w/ seaside/ocean &amp; mountain views (3 levels?) but still close enough to CBD/Subway Station...I always envisioned there would be some Malibu like props in Fukuoka sitting neatly on a hill overlooking a vast expanse of ocean/mountains......

    In Japan, there&apos;s a concept called the new construction premium. <br>This means that when you purchase a new home, the moment you receive the keys and step through the front door, you lose roughly 20% of the property&apos;s value. <br>In other words, for a 50 million yen new home, that would mean a 10 million yen loss. <br>This is because Japan has a strong belief in new construction, and the value of a home drops the moment it enters the &quot;used&quot; category. <br>From there, the assessed value of a home continues to fall year by year, and after 30 years, the home&apos;s asset value is almost zero (the land still has asset value, so real estate is never sold for free). <br>This means that when buying a home in Japan, it&apos;s recommended to buy one that&apos;s around 30 years old, as it offers the best cost performance.

    My top preference was the #3 bungalow, which has an air filter while my second choice was the #2 house, which has a dark green color.

    One needs to also consider medical needs. Closest hospital and medical care etc. I am 74 ad on dialysis so I won&apos;t ever be able to travel to Japan but one can dream. Thanks for doing this!

    Wow the single story home is stunning. &nbsp;Congratulations to the builder, &nbsp;did a great job.

  • @DidiGaga-hm4du · 9 months ago

    My fav is huse three the bungalo. Learnt a lot about the air filter and heating system. opening the loft to let hot air dissipates is smart. I love 1F houses but 55K isn&apos;t for every one
