to the World
Services
Bringing valuable vacant homes and traditional kominka across Japan to the global market.
At Sun Sun House, we maximize the charm and value of these heritage properties and connect them with buyers around the world.
Property Registration
We accept listings of unused kominka and vacant houses from across Japan and introduce them to international buyers.
Each property is reviewed based on age and regional characteristics to ensure suitability for restoration.
Registration is quick and simple through our online platform—and completely free of charge.
International Sales Support
Restored properties are showcased on sales platforms in English and Chinese, reaching overseas buyers.
We also support payments via digital assets (ARCS) and utilize cutting-edge systems such as NFT-based ownership management, creating a smooth and secure purchase process for clients worldwide.
Operational Support & After-Sales Services
Even after a sale, we assist with ongoing management—such as operating the home as a vacation rental, providing regular maintenance, and fostering connections with local communities.
This ensures the property continues to thrive for years to come, while protecting the long-term value of the owner’s asset.
