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.

    It saddens me to hear that it will be an Airbnb. It looks like a lovely home to start a family in! Ah, but one can dream. Please do show us the results when it's renovated!
  • @roberthale8407
    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.
  • @rnews5750
    For a house built in the 1980s the house is in remarkable shape. Great potential.
  • @DGR_Dave
    This place has SO much cool potential! I'd love to see a video on how it turns out in the future 😀
  • Awesome video! Love the variety from the food show. Please show more different areas of Japan. You are such a great videographer and presenter.
  • @cj5517
    That Seiko clock just hit me in the nostalgic feels
  • @monicaseaton9794
    I'm definitely interested in seeing more about that home and the renovations.
  • Yes, yes interested in seeing the renovation later thank you so much for sharing
  • OMG! This house is gorgeous 😻 I would literally just refresh what's there and minimum upgrades needed like wallpaper, floors and hardware features.
  • @patrickthunnus
    It looks like a very nice layout; the long garage looks better as storage space than a car park. Improving the lighting, refresh the bathrooms, add more closets. Of course insulation!
  • Was just in the mood for Japan house tour videos and then Paolo-san uploaded this!!?? ありがとございます!!!!!
  • @redheadkitty1109
    the house has a lot of potential😊 and it would be interesting to see what it will look like after the renovation, nice video like always paolo ❤
  • @ypesh
    Looks great!! So much potential! im suprised by the amount of space, certainly better than expected. Pleasantly surprised 🎉🎉
  • @imagine7408
    Feels like we will see a Paolo & Miko home tour in 1 or 2 years 😊. It would be great to see this house again once it’s renovated.
  • @jasmineteo3965
    Hey Paolo! Please do a video on the renovation process and how the house turns out eventually! 😊
  • As always, I thoroughly enjoy your videos Paolo! It really makes me want to move to Japan. Just such a beautiful and well taken care of country!
