This week, Take and Joey break down what's next for AkiyaMart and why they're repositioning toward a broader Japan real estate platform. The most immediate change is that they've decided to stop using the word "akiya." For foreigners it's shorthand for cheap, abandoned homes in Japan. But for many people in Japan, the word carries real cultural and economic weight. For the team, this business has always been about more than just cheap homes. It's about connecting people to Japan, and this choice reflects that vision.
This episode also covers three weeks on the road through Tama, Otaru, Fukuoka, and Beppu, the AkiyaMart team gathering, and what two and a half years of building a Japan real estate company from scratch actually looks like.
