Mortgage mishap?

Land to live on may well be scarce in Japan, especially in Tokyo; however with a busy road out front, an elevated expressway on the left and a monorail overhead, this particular spot is definitely not ideal for that dream new domicile.

    It all depends on where you live and what kind of place you have Jose; but in general, and as a percentage of someone’s salary, Tokyo is arguably cheaper than London. Now that doesn’t make it cheap, but it’s perhaps not as expensive as you think.

    Bit hard to give a price though as there are so many factors to consider.
