You cannot bid on this alone

A non-resident cannot open a standard Japanese bank account, so the deposit, the bid, and registration must route through a bilingual judicial scrivener or auction agent under a notarised, apostilled power of attorney. This handoff is mandatory, not optional.

Deep-read of the three court documents

The deep-read reads the three court documents, translates them to plain English, and lays out fact by fact the occupancy, special conditions, encumbrances, and the appraised value they record, with the question to put to a judicial scrivener on each before you commit funds. It is information, not legal, tax, or investment advice, and not brokerage.

What you get
  • Property description

    Read and translated: the occupancy and the rights the court records as surviving the sale, with the delivery-order question to put to a judicial scrivener.

  • On-site survey report

    Read and translated: physical condition, who is actually in the property, and the special conditions of sale.

  • Court appraisal

    Read and translated: the appraised value and the method behind it, reconciled against the bid math.
