Very interesting! I'll look forward going through the series. I've lived in Japanese apartments so it's good to get someone who knows something about them to go through them from the insides. Thanks for posting!
You and your wife should try being Fudosan. I've been here 13 years and you could be a realtor , especially for foreigners. Lots of foreigners would like to buy. Not easy at all without a Japanese wife. Entertaining stuff. I'd hire you for renovation work for sure !
Thats a nice drive way and a house especially in Japan wow, you can fit two cars there no problem. Big investment for you Great job. My wife is Japanese as well but I am not brave enough to move to Japan.
Wow I thought you were going to get a unit, but that's an impressive house. Very big by Japanese standards. Looks very cool!
I hope your not too busy to have a beer with the missus & I when we head over in January. There's a video featured on our channel talking about our plans & asking when would be the best time if your still interested (9th or 10th of Jan).
Congrats again on the house man, reading the more info there, it sounds like you've made a very good decision in buying, not renting :)
it's kind of exciting just watching this video so i can't imagine how excited you and your wife would be! seems to me that by the end f all the rennovations it's gonna be one beautiful house :)
How much did you buy the house for?
