English-Speaking Property Management in Hiroshima

Hiroshima spans a river-delta city, the shrine island of Miyajima, and a coastline of hill towns and islands running east to Onomichi and Fukuyama. International owners hold everything from Naka-ku apartments to restored hillside houses in Onomichi, whose steep lanes have become known for akiya revival, and citrus-island homes along the Shimanami Kaido. MonoHaus manages Hiroshima city and prefecture property for owners abroad, in English.

The landscape that makes Hiroshima beautiful also makes it vulnerable. Homes on the city's steep outskirts and the prefecture's granite hillsides sit above slopes that have given way in heavy rain, most notably in 2014 and 2018, so we pay close attention to drainage, retaining walls, and the hazard maps that apply to each property.

地域の特徴·Local know-how

What Hiroshima property needs

  1. 01

    Heavy rain & landslide risk

    Hiroshima's weathered-granite slopes are prone to landslides in torrential rain. Before the rainy season and after major downpours we inspect gutters, slope drainage, and retaining walls, and report anything that needs a contractor.

  2. 02

    Hillside & island logistics

    Onomichi homes often have no car access, and island houses depend on bridges or ferries. We plan inspections and coordinate tradespeople who are used to carrying materials up stone steps and across the water.

Property management in Hiroshima — FAQ

Can we rent our Hiroshima city apartment to short-stay visitors?
Short-term rental in Japan requires either registration under the Private Lodging Business Act (民泊新法), which caps nights at 180 a year, or a lodging licence. Many apartment buildings also ban it in their management rules (管理規約). We can check the building rules and the city's requirements with you before you decide.
What do you do with notices from our apartment's management association?
Most Hiroshima apartments are run by a management association (管理組合) that sends notices about general meetings, major repair works, and fee changes. We read these, translate the important points, and flag anything that needs your vote or payment. We also check the unit itself for leaks and ventilation.
Should we keep or sell our parents' house in a hillside housing estate on the city's edge?
Many outer Hiroshima estates are built on slopes, and some lots fall inside designated sediment-disaster zones (土砂災害警戒区域), which buyers and lenders will check. We can confirm the designation, record the condition of the house and retaining walls, and help you weigh selling, renting, or keeping. For valuation and tax questions, a local real estate agent and a tax accountant (税理士) are the right people.
How much does property management in Hiroshima cost?
Plans run from ¥14,000 to ¥42,000 per month depending on how often we visit — quarterly, every other month, or monthly. The right cadence depends on your Hiroshima property's type, age, and condition. Rental management is 5% of rent, and renovation is quoted separately.
