Why Our Inspection Matters

We don’t just help you buy a property.
We help you avoid costly mistakes.

We focus on renovation reality — not sales goals.
This is why our on-site inspection focuses on renovation feasibility
from a practical construction perspective — not sales goals.

Transparent Pricing for Foreign Buyers

We offer clear, simple pricing so you can confidently plan your purchase and renovation in Japan.
All services are designed for international clients who may need support with language, procedures, and technical assessment.

1. Online Consultation:Free (up to 30 minutes)

Ask general questions about buying, viewing, or renovating property in Japan.
This consultation is intended for initial orientation only.

2. Initial Desk Review (Basic Guidance):Free

We provide general, high-level comments based on publicly available information
(property listings, photos, and basic documents).

This service is intended as initial guidance only.
It does not include detailed feasibility analysis, cost planning,
or technical confirmation.

For clients who require a structured pre-purchase feasibility review
before visiting a property, we offer a separate desk-based assessment.
Please see our Services page for details.

3. On-site Renovation Feasibility Check30,000 JPY (Tokyo 23 wards, Saitama)

This on-site check is conducted by experienced construction professionals
and focuses on practical renovation feasibility from a construction perspective.

We confirm as much as possible on-site:

  • visible structure & walls
  • visible piping & drainage routes
  • ventilation & existing equipment
  • layout change feasibility
  • renovation options & limitations
  • rough renovation cost estimate
  • potential risks & concerns
  • suggested improvements

Important:
Our on-site inspection is limited to what can be seen without demolition (non-destructive inspection).
Please understand that:

  • underfloor areas
  • attic spaces
  • inside walls and ceilings
  • hidden piping
  • insulation and structural elements

cannot be fully confirmed at this stage and may only be verified after renovation work begins.

Please note:
Our standard on-site check is not a certified home inspection.
It is a visual, non-destructive renovation feasibility check.
If you need a formal, full-scale home inspection, we can provide this service as well — for an additional fee.
