A Top Japanese Insurance Agent’s Brutal Advice for Foreign Homeowners

Mar 25, 2026
 

Buying property in Japan is the easy part.

Protecting it is where most people get it wrong.

In this video, I sit down with a top Japanese insurance agent.

No sales pitch.
Just straight answers.

What does fire insurance actually cover?
Why do some claims get denied?
And how is it different from what you are used to?

We also walk through a real property in Tokyo.
You’ll see the risks most people overlook.

If you already own property in Japan, this matters.
If you are planning to buy, it matters even more.

Watch this before you make a costly mistake.
