find their home in Japan

Anuja & Rakesh
|🇮🇳 India
Anuja and Rakesh are based in Japan and were looking for a second home they could enjoy as a personal retreat—somewhere to relax, spend quality time together, and step away from the pace of everyday life. They chose an akiya that offered a calm environment while still being practical to own and maintain as a second residence. The balance between lifestyle, location, and long-term potential was a key factor in their decision. From property selection to contract and handover, the entire purchase process was carefully guided, allowing them to move forward with confidence and clarity.
"Buying a second home in Japan felt like a big step, but the process was smooth and reassuring. We always knew what was happening, and that made all the difference."
