Thinking about selling your vacant home in Japan? With AkiyaMart Native Listings, you can connect with serious international buyers—without needing to navigate the complexities of marketing it overseas.
Your property will get over 3 million monthly impressions from buyers across the U.S., Canada, Australia, Singapore, Europe, and beyond—maximizing its exposure to the right audience.
AkiyaMart is a U.S.-based platform that helps international buyers find real estate in Japan. While we specialize in vacant homes (akiyas), we welcome listings of all types—from cabins and apartments to traditional kominka and more.
We bridge the gap between Japanese sellers and overseas buyers by offering an intuitive, English-friendly platform that makes it easy to connect.
AkiyaMart was founded by Joey Stockermans and Take Kurosawa, two longtime friends who met at International Christian University (ICU) in Tokyo. After buying their first akiya in Beppu—and four more shortly after—they launched AkiyaMart to help others navigate the process and tell stories about the homes they discovered.
