You can get a clean and renovated, but old, condo in Tokyo. 

But keep in mind they made 100's of millions in Tokyo real estate and just moved the cash.. :) 

Anyway, if it keeps going up, Bay area will become like Tokyo.

This is from my experience as a backpacker who been to 30 countries in my 20's I have lived in Singapore, Tokyo, New York, Portland, LA, Bay Area now.

We are in the second great suburban migration, empowered by virtual working, civil unrest, politics of the day, and just a desire to not like like a Tokyo sub-division.

(LEH) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Monday in New York, listing debts of $613 billion and naming as unsecured creditors owed hundreds of millions of dollars banks from Tokyo, Hong Kong, New York, Singapore and Taipei, among others.

Hi @Gianmarco MeliI help run a Real Estate focused meetup in Korea, not too far from where you are ^^ We've connected with a few of our fellow real estate investors in Tokyo too.

We are still cheaper than other big cities like New York, San Francisco, Tokyo, and London.3.

Its the same in New York, Vancouver, Tokyo, Singapore...
