MY FIRST DEAL!! [Calc Review] Help me analyze this deal

[Bertram Martin]

Hi Everyone,

I am living and working in Japan and about to begin negotiations with my realtor on the above.

I think I need to ask for a selling price equivalent to $450K (i have entered the values in the calculator in rough USD (dividing JPY by 100) to give me a rough idea of the costs associated and where I need to go.

I have rerun the calculator with lower purchase costs up to $450K but I am not sure how to get the best value and therefore make the best offer.  I believe the property is overpriced given I have a home in the same neighborhood that we bought 2 years ago for $498K.

Any tips on running the calculator?  This property was built two years ago and the owner seems eager to sell...

Thanks in advance and look forward to you hearing from you.

Best,

Bertram-
