THREE MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT PROPERTIES IN JAPAN PRITI DONNELLY
Overall, risk is greater with speculative play for capital gain such as units in Tokyo or Osaka. Investing in Japan for
its monthly cash flow environment in cities such as Sapporo, Fukuoka, Nagoya and other cities with stable or
growing population can result in stable returns. For highest yielding properties, investors should focus their criteria
on condo units under 200 sq. ft., one to two room units, for inexpensive interior maintenance. Alternatively, some
of our clients aim for smaller and older buildings on large plots of land in key locations. The strategy in this case is
to sell to a developer when the building becomes too expensive to maintain, in exchange for either compensation
at a profit, or a new unit in a new residential project built on that land. The downside is that these units only have a
small fraction of land attached to them, so appreciation potential is lower.
