Welcome to Week 52 of Japan’s Kansai Property Showcase—August 2025—brought to you by Omoroi Osaka, your dedicated partner in navigating the Kansai property market. This week marks a small but meaningful update to how we share listings: instead of our usual balance, we tested a new posting schedule designed to give you more variety and an easier way to compare homes, condos, and rentals across the week. On Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday we introduced two houses each day, offering a closer look at suburban family homes, compact city builds, and renovation-ready options with strong upside. Wednesday and Thursday shifted the spotlight to two condos each, ranging from affordable starter units to well-located investments with rental potential. Friday was reserved for rentals, where we highlighted two Osaka City apartments—practical choices for those seeking shorter-term living or a gateway into life in Japan’s most vibrant metropolis.


While our rental posts this week focused on Osaka City, we want to emphasize that Omoroi Osaka can assist with finding rental properties in other parts of Kansai as well, from Kyoto and Kobe to Nara, Wakayama, and Shiga. Whether you’re seeking a long-term home purchase, an investment with stable returns, or simply a comfortable rental as a base in Japan, we’re here to make the process clear, stress-free, and tailored to your needs. Each property we showcase is carefully selected for its balance of location, price point, and livability—ensuring that both end-users and investors can spot opportunities that align with their goals.


As always, Omoroi Osaka goes beyond the listings themselves. We help translate the fine print, coordinate viewings, and guide you through every step of the purchase or rental process, so you can move forward with confidence. Dive in below and explore this week’s six featured properties to see which Kansai property speaks to your vision of life in Japan.

Wrapping Up Week 52


That concludes Week 52 of Japan’s Kansai Property Showcase. This week’s journey took us through a diverse mix of Kansai property opportunities—from spacious family homes in suburban Osaka to investment-ready condos in central city locations, and finally, to rental options in Osaka City that give newcomers a convenient entry point into daily life here. By testing a new posting schedule—more houses upfront, condos midweek, and rentals on Thursday—we were able to provide a clearer snapshot of the different property types and how they might fit into your own goals.


Each listing stood out for its own reasons: houses with solid long-term value and community appeal, condos offering easy maintenance and steady demand, and rentals perfectly positioned for city living with excellent access to transport and amenities. Together, they highlight the balance of affordability, convenience, and lifestyle potential that defines the Kansai property market today.


At Omoroi Osaka, our commitment goes beyond showing you listings. We’re here to guide international buyers step by step—scheduling viewings, translating and breaking down the fine print, coordinating with licensed agents and legal professionals, and advising on financing, inspections, and renovations. Whether you’re looking to secure a long-term home, invest strategically, or simply understand how the market works, we aim to simplify the process and give you the confidence to move forward.


Thank you for following along with Week 52. We look forward to continuing this showcase each week—bringing you fresh opportunities, market insights, and the support you need to make your vision of owning or living in Kansai a reality. Until next time, happy house-hunting in Japan!
