I was living in MA at the time but now in Tokyo. 

As an Air Force officer stationed in Tokyo, I'm in unique circumstances to begin my real estate career; however, I would love feedback from the community here on a couple items that can help me get started:1.

I'm currently finishing up a degree in Tokyo but will be moving back to Singapore within the next year once I graduate, and am looking to get involved in real estate investing.Would it be possible to get added to the WhatsApp group?

Some of the potential risks are natural disasters (earthquakes obviously, and a few other fun ones), as well as the overall economic outlook for areas outside of Tokyo, and the aging population in the countryside.As always, detailed local knowledge, or a trusted partner on the ground, is key.

As you pointed out, this is blatantly incorrect.What I should have said is that a non-negligible percentage of pollution is man-made (if you disagree, fly into LAX or Tokyo at dusk), and decreasing the amount of pollution in the air is a good thing.

The museums, downtown, stadiums, and other pluses of the city (not to mention the mountains) all make it a wonderful place to be.Other favorite places to live include Tokyo and Sydney.

@Brandon TurnerWill you be stopping by Tokyo, Japan?

I don't want to be overly negative as Japan saw waves of deflation but RE price in good locations like Tokyo actually have risen the last 5 years.  

These properties are outside of Tokyo as a cash flow investment rather than for appreciation.

Blackstone recently bought a 2 billion dollar deal from GE capital in Tokyo mixed use resi and commercial.
