Seller-first model

Thinking of selling? Start with a paid price investigation.

You do not have to appoint an agent before you understand the property. We can first analyse the asset, local market, comparable transactions and sale issues, then provide an English Property Price Investigation & Sale Strategy Report.

  • General market and local area analysis
  • Nearby transaction and public land-price evidence
  • Detailed land and building analysis
  • Likely buyer profile and marketability
  • Investigated price and recommended asking-price strategy
  • Brokerage available afterward if you decide to sell

Indicative fees

Pay for the analysis before the transaction.

Where valuation or research is a separate assignment with defined scope and a written deliverable, it is quoted independently from brokerage. Brokerage is handled under a separate agreement.

Transaction

Brokerage & Negotiation Support

Success-based

Separate brokerage or agency agreement. We can negotiate in Japanese with counterparties within the agreed scope.

Formal / corporate

Real Estate Appraisal

Quotation

Scope and fee depend on intended use, property type, reporting requirements and deadline.

A simplified price investigation is not automatically a formal appraisal under Japan's Real Estate Appraisal Standards. Brokerage fees are separate and subject to applicable Japanese rules.

Resort markets

Karuizawa and Hakuba

Both markets attract buyers from outside the local area, but price formation is highly property-specific. We analyse the local buyer pool, public benchmarks, comparable transactions and physical/legal characteristics rather than relying on a simple unit price.

Karuizawa

Vacation homes, land, premium residential property and long-held family assets.

Karuizawa property services →

Hakuba

Chalets, land, lodging assets and resort property in a rapidly changing international market.
