Why owners choose us for property maintenance.

  • Visits on your schedule

    Quarterly, every other month or monthly, depending on your plan — with a photo report within 5 business days of every visit.

最初の30日 · Your first 30 days

What happens after you sign up.

No long wait and no guessing. Within a month your home has been seen, photographed and written up, and you've agreed a plan for it.

  1. Day 1

    You say yes

    We confirm your plan in writing and open your owner dashboard.

  2. Days 1–7

    Your keys reach us

    Handed over in person, sent by tracked post, or collected from your agent or the seller. We message you a photo when they arrive.

  3. Week 1–2

    First visit

    A full walk-through with photos: every room, the roof line, the garden, meters and anything that worries us.

  4. Within 5 business days

    Your first report

    The baseline report goes into your dashboard — what's fine, what needs watching, and what needs fixing now.

  5. By day 30

    A plan you've agreed

    Quotes with photos for anything urgent, your visit dates for the year, and bills set up for us to pay if you'd like.

Property maintenance — questions

What does ongoing property maintenance actually cover?
Regular visits on your plan's schedule — airing the house, running water, checking for leaks, damp, pests and storm damage — plus seasonal care before typhoons and winter, and coordinating vetted local trades for any repairs. Every visit ends with a photo report.
Who pays for repairs and materials?
You do, but only with your approval. Contractor and material costs are passed through at invoice value with no markup, and we always get your sign-off before spending more than ¥10,000.
Can you respond to emergencies while I'm abroad?
Yes. We take emergency calls 24/7 and aim to dispatch a contractor within 24 hours, in all 47 prefectures — and we'll always do our best to be faster. Timing can depend on weather, disasters and local contractor availability. We report to you in English throughout.
