On a similar point, this video goes through the costs of buying an abandoned house in Japan: [VIDEO] To be fair, although there are a lot of "extras", the sums involved still seemed relatively small.
Well there's at least one person who has: [VIDEO] He mentions renovation companies as well as builders who will undertake renovations. He has many more videos detailing the process. However, being a youtuber does open up possibilities that aren't common.
If you are interested in buying an abandoned home in the Japan countryside highly recommend the YouTube channel Tokyo Llama. He's spent the last four years renovating a beautiful traditional style Japanese house and property about an hour outside of Tokyo. He talks about the renovation aspects, taxes, paperwork process, and the pros and cons of doing this with a family. Lots of videos the watch. [VIDEO]
