How to Purchase a Property in Tokyo in 10 Days — The LA Lawyer’s Edition
Close communication between the client and the agent is the key to finding your dream home in Tokyo.
Overview
The client, a lawyer based in Los Angeles, has long held a deep affection for Japan. His university roommate was Japanese, and they remain close friends to this day. From the culture to the people, He loves everything about Japan, and he had always dreamed of owning a second home in Tokyo to stay connected to the country and the people he cherishes.
After discovering Naomi via website, he reached out with a clear goal: to view properties and complete a purchase during his 10-day stay in Tokyo. He hoped to find a place that felt like home—a space that reflected his lifestyle and love for the city.
Challenges
His timeline was ambitious due to his demanding work schedule. He wanted to view multiple properties, make a decision, and finalize the purchase—all within ten days. As a foreign buyer, he also needed to ensure that the entire process could be completed smoothly despite the time constraints. The challenge was not only logistical but also emotional: finding a home that truly resonated with him in a short window of time.
Solutions
Naomi prepared meticulously before the client’s arrival, selecting a range of properties that matched his initial preferences. As the viewings progressed, she quickly refined the selection based on his reactions and evolving tastes. This flexibility and attentiveness led to a breakthrough: a stunning tower condominium in Nishishinjuku—affectionately nicknamed “TOWER MAN.”
The property offered everything the client had hoped for: a gym, sky lounge, remote workspaces, kids’ room, library, car sharing, and English-speaking concierge service. The location, layout, interior design, and breathtaking views sealed the deal. The client had also prepared all necessary documents ahead of time, which allowed the transaction to move swiftly. After reaching an agreement with the seller, he returned to the U.S. as scheduled, and Naomi handled the contract signing and closing procedures on his behalf.
Results
The client successfully purchased his dream second home in Tokyo—within just ten days. The process was smooth, efficient, and deeply satisfying. He was thrilled with the property and grateful for Naomi’s exceptional support, describing her service as “above and beyond.”
This experience truly became a textbook example of “HOW TO PURCHASE A PROPETY IN TOKYO IN 10 DAYS”.
Message from Carlos
I just wanted to write you a note of thanks for all the excellent service you have provided throughout our home-buying process. You went “above and beyond the call of duty,” as we say, and the level of service and attention to detail for your clients exceeded all my expectations. I am thrilled with the new place in Nishishinjuku and I have happily referred you to my law partners and friends in Asia.
I should be back in Tokyo at the end of June/early July (that’s the current plan) and would love to take you out to dinner if your schedule permits. We can also take a “handing-over-the-keys” photo that I can use when I write an online review for you and your company.
With my deepest gratitude and warmest regards,
