Japan Foreclosed Property 2015-2016 - Buy this 5th edition report!

Over the years, this ebook has been enhanced with additional research to offer a comprehensive appraisal of the Japanese foreclosed property market, as well as offering economic and industry analysis. The author travels to Japan regularly to keep abreast of the local market conditions, and has purchased several foreclosed properties, as well as bidding on others. Japan is one of the few markets offering high-yielding property investment opportunities. Contrary to the 'rural depopulation' scepticism, the urban centres are growing, and they have always been a magnet for expatriates in Asia. Japan is a place where expats, investors (big or small) can make highly profitable real estate investments. Japan is a large market, with a plethora of cheap properties up for tender by the courts. Few other Western nations offer such cheap property so close to major infrastructure. Japan is unique in this respect, and it offers such a different life experience, which also makes it special. There is a plethora of property is depopulating rural areas, however there are fortnightly tenders offering plenty of property in Japan's cities as well. I bought a dormitory 1hr from Tokyo for just $US30,000.
You can view foreclosed properties listed for as little as $US10,000 in Japan thanks to depopulation and a culture that is geared towards working for the state. I bought foreclosed properties in Japan and now I reveal all in our expanded 350+page report. The information you need to know, strategies to apply, where to get help, and the tools to use. We even help you avoid the tsunami and nuclear risks since I was a geologist/mining finance analyst in a past life.

Philippines property boom or bust?

Share |

Land prices have risen considerably in Asia, and the Philippines is no exception, even if the country is no laggard. Even if the USA, Japan and EU are weak, the Asian and Latin American economies are still pretty robust, and at the end of the day, these economies can be expected to drive most global growth for the next 5-10 years. So what can we expect?
1. Lower interest rates. There are economists talking of the US treasury rate on 10-year bonds falling to 1%. This does not surprise me. The implication I suggest however is greater in those countries which are not overly indebted, i.e. Asian countries. I'm expecting a property boom, and you can expect this wealth growth to feed into consumption, before the USA and EU rejoin the party. Also expect Western investment in Asian property. The driver for this will undoubtedly be yields. Consider that Philippine rental yields are very attractive at 8.62%. Indonesia is less attractive for personal investors, because of regulatory issues, but even Indonesia might appeal with future reforms. Certainly the Philippines looks like the best market, for reasons like their 18-mth 'extended' stay on a tourist visa. In fact they are higher than they were several years ago, highlighting the fact that income growth is outpacing construction in these uncertain times.

2. Strong fundamentals for the Philippines with high commodity prices, high remittances and of course the strong business outsourcing market. 
3. Improving governance - We have yet to see much change here. There is a top-down push for anti-corruption, i.e. The sanctioning of the Chief Justice and former President Arroyo, but this might well just be a changing of the guard, rather than heralding the end of corruption. 

Indoubtedly global debt levels have topped out, but don't for a moment think that this boom is over as long as 70% of the global population is liberalising. This is the Industrial Revolution...that one in the 17-18th century was a baby in some respects. This is just as significant. In fact, we might even expect political reform before the end of it. More realistically, I'd expect such reform because of a 2030s crash...but that's a long time off.
