Japan: Yen in Focus

[nipponbaka]

Japans domestic debt is abot $6trillion thats $6,000,000,000,000 lets put that into perspective, if $1=1 second it would take about 11.5 days too count too $1 million. now if you want too count too $6 trillion it would take you about 190,000 YEARS!!!!

I want to buy property in japan (maybe just a house but maybe a small block of apartments) - maybe on the foreclosed market - is now a good time?

[hktraveller]

no, japan is in trouble like US too !

[Brainman94]

what do you think? Will property prices continue declining even though they already have for 15 years? Some people say it has bottomed out.

Regardless - aren't the rental incomes good compared to the price of purchase (ie high cashflow yield)?

Do you live in japan?
