Just look at Japan and Germany post WWII.

After reading a lot on RE (thanks BP) over the past year, I have decided to move to Austin (90% sure) to pursue REI sometime this year, as it is currently impossible to do here in Japan (I am a US citizen).

Hi guys, I am a real estate investor and university professor living in Shiga, Japan.

One of the great things about KW is that we also have offices throughout Asia if you want to build up your referral or agent base there....50+ countries and growing....Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Korea, Cambodia, Japan and several others.

Good Afternoon BP from Okinawa, Japan, I was wondering if there is any BP Member's out here that is willing to share some knowledge about REI.

I've also moved to Japan..

@Austen Carroll you might be on to something with “adult bnb”... in Japan they have love motels that seem to be pretty popular and have adult themes in each room.

I'm in the military serving over in Okinawa, Japan and I will be getting out of the military within the year.

In Japan with the Navy right now. 

unless these markets becoming the next Japan in the coming 10 years (meaning prices coming down a bit each year for many years) , which is possible, who knows.
