TOKYO, WITH CONTEXT
Know what the information can tell you.
Our goal is a useful, verifiable Tokyo property decision. Every connected service and every unconnected dependency should be clear.
Geographic coverage
Tokyo Metropolis comprises 23 special wards, 26 cities, five towns and eight villages. This is different from the Greater Tokyo region. We do not treat all municipality names as neighborhoods or assume the same service availability everywhere.
The directory covers all 62 municipality names and official links. Individual area briefs are available for research but remain excluded from search indexing until more original local evidence is added. Selected station names are references, not a complete route or travel-time dataset.
Property listings and rights
There is no live listing feed connected. Publicly visible listings, photographs, floor plans and brochures are not automatically licensed for republication. We require documented permission, a source, verification date and availability expiry before an offer can be published. Passing our file validator only checks data format and declarations.
Public data and risk
MLIT’s Real Estate Information Library provides price, land-use and related public information; its API needs approved access and is not a feed of available properties. Hazard information describes specific datasets and dates, not a guarantee of safety. Follow official maps and consult the exact address with a qualified provider.
Costs, estimates and eligibility
Calculator values are fictional starting assumptions and can be replaced. They are not mortgage offers, tax advice or a market-price survey. Eligibility, foreign-resident acceptance, guarantor terms and accessibility depend on the provider and property. Unknown conditions remain unknown.
Privacy and saved information
Saved areas and explicitly saved briefs stay in local storage on your device. Downloads remain yours. Opening a mail draft does not send it. Listing-file validation stays in the browser. These new tools do not transmit your inputs to a CRM or analytics service. Clear the saved brief or use browser settings to remove local storage.
Corrections and review
Prepared with AI assistance and source-linked editorial review. No independent Japanese real-estate professional review is claimed. Send corrections with the page URL and a primary source to joio.design@gmail.com.
