mansion renovation anon here. I originally posted on /日本の風景/ but I think this thread is more relevant. Just wanted to update that renovations are moving forward for the next few months. If a thread like this is still around I'll occasionally give updates/photos.

Also to let any anone with ambitions to buy a cheap property in Japan; You do NOT need a Japanese bank account or resident visa to set up utilities like I have seen posted everywhere online. You can both buy property and pay for utilities and living needs with only your tourist visa and credit card. In my case My water, gas, and electric bills all arrive in the mail with a barcode that can be scanned and paid at any conbini. I also didn't need a hanko, but I had one made in English characters anyway just to make things easier. The only thing I would really recommend is either a strong amount of Japanese or employing someone who can speak good English and handle dealing with people in Japanese on your behalf like a bilingual realtor or good friend.

Ok, its pretty gross right now but it was cheap and my first real-estate deal ever. Should update with progress in a few weeks during reform. Entertaining shitpost ideas about personal touches.

This is the kitchen/hall from the gekan looking into the bigger L/D room.
