My parents are wanting to spend part of their retirement in/around Tokyo and would like to purchase property. Mother is a Japanese citizen and father is American, but neither have resided in Japan for over 30 years. They would pay cash, and are looking for a real estate company or agent to facilitate the purchasing process. While not necessarily bilingual, they are seeking someone who is familiar with foreign clientele and the process that goes along with it.
In my own research I find that many of these companies that deal with foreigners are geared towards clients that are buying premium 100+ million yen properties, and this is way outside of their budget. I would say an apartment around 30 million yen is more realistic.
If anyone has any recommendations for companies or agents that can help them with finding properties in this price range, it would be much appreciated. Or if this is a budget that's unrealistic, opinions are welcome.
