This is a Japanese Home Tour of a $400,000 house in Tokyo. This 60,000,000 JPY House tour is pre-renovation so it may look a bit rough. It's a 160 square meters, 44 year old, 4LDK house with 2 garages and a backyard sitting on 181 square meters of land. So in Japan, housing properties are evaluated based on the land value plus the building value. In Tokyo, the average land value is about 1.2M yen 8110 USD per square meter, while in this area, on the outskirts, it averages about 330,000 yen / 2230 USD per square meters, which would value this house’s land at around 400,000 dollars. But since this house was built in 1980, has been poorly maintained, left un-renovated with no one living here for 3 years, the house value in Japan is considered close to zero. Therefore, a total valuation of 400,000 USD. This Tokyo house is a 12 minute walk away from Komae train station, which has many shops and cool restaurants and of course a supermarket. Also, about a 20 mins train ride from Shinjuku station, this area has a down to earth relaxing vibe and my favorite 3 breweries in the area with one just across the street.

As a house built in the 1980's I would update a few things. All HVAC units, water heater, toilets, plumbing and update the electrics. Deep clean the house, replace any damaged flooring and all new tatami mats. Have the roof inspected and do any repairs, re-do all the landscaping, paint the exterior and live in it.

@KoinzellGaming 2 месяца назад

In Japan, the reason why old homes are disliked and usually demolished is the hidden damage through the years of accumulated stress from Earthquakes. Generally when you buy a home you'd also best hire some people to check the integrity of the home, and to see for any of those hidden factors. Even if you don't see mold, there might be hidden mold in the walls as well (Paolo having an allergic reaction could be due to that, but I hope that's not the case & that it was just some dust/pet stuff) My wife who's Japanese says that 80's are already kinda risky and it'd be better to have a home built during the late 90's due to the updated building regulations.

@sacadosify 2 месяца назад

Nice! I'd move in as is and fix it up over time, since a lot of the issues are cosmetic. It's a shame that a family didn't get a chance to purchase it. Affordable housing is hard to find, and it seems like Airbnb units are taking away opportunities from young families to purchase a home. I'd definitely put in another tree - maybe a yuzu, lemon, cherry, plum or mandarin. Clean up the garden space and garden outdoors. Use the patio area for barbecues, etc.

@hr2079 2 месяца назад

Someone’s ready to move to the burbs, right Paolo? With Japan’s ultra low interest rates , acquiring this type of house is extremely affordable. Put $80-$100k of renovations and you have a great property! Can you do a video post renovation please?

@Jordan-inJapan 2 месяца назад

I live in a more rural area of Japan (Mie Prefecture) and I had assumed that a house in Tokyo would cost way more than a comparable one here. But actually, the place that Paolo shows us is not too far off what I’d expect for the same price here. Maybe about 20% higher? My family just recently finished building a house here, and the total cost was just a little less than the place in this video, including construction and land. I video blogged the whole process, if anyone is interested!

@granttaylor4762 10 дней назад

there is zero insulation in those days, even now very little...so you need to guy the exterior walls, insulate with rockwool as great in high humidity, Do R25 walls, R40 min in ceilings... redo pipes if not copper..., new electric, new baths, kitchens, must get triple pane windows, new insulated security doors. $440,000 usd in renovation to like new and very warm. Need to add heating..I would dig down across from single garage and add heating , central AC air cleaning, dehumidifier system, HVR would be nice...if you go this route another $80,000...landscaping, costs over runs round off to $600,000 usd costs...plus if roof is still good, or add another $40,000 redo in good metal roofing...then total costs $640,000 usd or 100,000,000 Japanese yen... house warm, no mold, pollen problems, very low heating costs. Those gas outputs you saw , if they are gas then make the heating system natural gas central forced air heating... some models now 98% efficient and you have central air , dehumidifier, air cleaning with same system... I would get bid for new construction, reinforced concrete...might be cheaper

@H.pylori 2 месяца назад

Agree with you. I would take it as is and just do some handyman type fixes like the cabinets with the scratches and add flooring or carpeting in the one room and make sure that water and TV and fiberoptic internet is set up. Also make sure the AC and heater and toilets work. Most of this work could be done gradually. Having two garages is a bonus in Tokyo. Perhaps the boxes in the second garage have some useful items for the house. I can clear the weeds in the yard and have rocks and pavers and a Zen garden put in. Would try to get the price down to $300,000 to $350,000.

That house has so much potential! Far more spacious than I would have originally expected. I do like the Scandinavian look downstairs. The built-in cabinetry is very similar to the "schrank" that many homes in Germany have. In fact, much more storage than typical for Japan, I should think. The one downstairs in the entry I would definitely restore rather than replace. The balcony connecting the two rooms is just fantastic. I could definitely see having some tea or coffee out there in the early morning on a day off. The lavatory upstairs by the stairs is a very nice hospitable touch that I would keep, but just replace the fixture itself. The garages are very beneficial as they are deep enough for storage in the back and still park cars or motorbikes. All in all, it's just great. I think once renovated it will definitely be a great investment. I'll start packing. 😊
