About Yama Vista
We help international buyers navigate Japan's real estate market — from akiya hunting and inspections to renovations and ongoing property management.
Our Story
Hey, my name is Elio. I've been living in Japan for about three years, and I've worked with different companies in marketing and the real estate industry, assisting people with buying, managing, and renovating homes in Japan.
I personally own three properties in Japan, and I created Yama Vista to help those who live abroad and would like to purchase their dream home here. I assist with renovations and answer any questions throughout the entire process.
There are a lot of nuances in Japan's real estate market that outside buyers don't see — things that can make or break a deal. That's where we come in.
I highly recommend booking a free consultation, and we can help you find your dream home in Japan.
