Do you want to buy a house in Tokyo ? Which area do you want to buy your property ?
I believe understanding the location is a key to being successful

In Japanese big cities such as greater Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya,
people do not commute by car but by train or subway.

If the number of residents increases, the station nearby flourishes and
the vibrancy is born in the town.
On the other hand, if the number of station users decreases, we could see the
recent issues like “vacant house problem”.
Empty houses problems are even becoming serious in the area of Denenchofu station, Tokyu Toyoko Line,
which has been admired as said a prestigious residential area.
This is because the wealthy people who live in Denenchofu are moving into
high-rise apartments in the center of Tokyo.
When buying real estate in Tokyo, it is extremely important to check the trend of
