Earthquakes put my floor out of level in California. I pulled up the sub-flooring and added a lift to some of the floor joists to get everything back to level. Once the sub-flooring was back in place, you couldn't tell it was altered. When you do the flooring in the bathroom, pull the toilet out, get the flooring under it, and caulk the toilet base when you re-install it. It will give you a nice and easy to clean finish. Waterproof too.

I'm going to rent my house in America and renovate an Akiya in Japan while I work as an English teacher for three years. There are English teaching jobs that don't give you an apartment; You get some more money to find a living situation for yourself when you arrive. This is going to be an awesome adventure. With my house renting for $2000 a month, I will net $20,000 on the rental. for a year... $60,000 for the three years. I will make $42,000 a year for the job without an apartment. $126,000 + $60,000 = $186,000 for the three years, and I can return to my home with three years of appreciation. Sounds like a plan. Life can be an amazing adventure, or it can be nothing. Choose wisely.

That's a pretty sweet Akiya you guys found. A lot of work for the cleanup, but relatively mild renovation. I'm surprised you didn't steam the wallpaper off to prevent the tearing of the underlying wall. Also, for the bathroom floor, you could have removed the toilet, by disconnecting the plumbing. All you'd need to do is replace the wax seal. (Though you will want to cover the hole to keep the sewer gas from coming in while the toilet is out)

That floor was horrid. A 7-8 mm difference throughout the room is hard to balance. Your shikui looks very similar to Tokyo Llama's, though he took his down to the gypsum board before applying the shikui.

29:26 personally, I would have mudded and painted the ceiling. Wallpaper is hard enough with 4 people on a ceiling. Doing it yourself without tools to hold it in place is impossible.

The labor costs you two saved alone by doing the work yourself is pretty sweet. I'm surprised you didn't do the roof repairs and update the electrical yourself. Are there restrictions in your prefecture that prevent you from doing that yourself?

I would have been tempted to leave the sliding doors their natural wood color rather than covering them with the black wall paper together the more natural wood tones throughout that room.

Disappointed seeing so many things that could have been given a second life by donating to various places instead going to the landfill. I thought people were more conscientious about repurposing in Japan given how little land there is to waste on garbage. Sad.

In Japan? There's no market for used things (including houses) unless they are in like new condition. The garbage all gets burned.

Whatever made the floor so unlevel is likely still happening - should have gotten in the crawlspace and fixed the probable foundation damage.

So I am an American that’s always been infatuated with Japan & Japan’s culture but I’ve always liked the country and never liked the big city. I can’t afford to buy a American house but it looks like I can afford to live in the countryside of Japan. Too bad they don’t let ex convicts live in Japan. I would totally renounce my US citizenship immediately. After doing a little more research, I also found out the most of these abandoned houses come fully furnished with everything inside I so wish Japan made it easier for people with my situation to move over there.

Things to consider: It's true that the house itself holds no value, that's why he slapped $100 on the thumbnail The cost of buying an Akiya is cheaper than getting one that's already built, but the work is more and if you don't want to clean anything yourself, Just that plus renovation will be heavy on costs... ~Depending on the area, the cost of the land could go up to even $50000 easily ~Trash disposals cost a fortune, you're required to keep your house as tidy as possible ~all in all this probably costs $10000 - $20000 just for the disposal of trash ~Sometimes you need to find the previous owners in order to buy the house ~The process of buying an abandoned house could take 3 months to an entire year ~Depending on the location of your house, if the road of your street is not wider than 4 meters, you cannot demolish it ~Most old Japanese houses have Tsuchikabe walls (Mud walls) which can increase the cost of disposal

Great work, turned out very nice, the only thing is that if you spent all this pain and effort to renovate you should have picked a better quality floor other the these cheap vinyl wraps, you probably will have to redo this in just a few years.
