Welcome to Week 53 of Japan’s Kansai Property Showcase, September 2025, brought to you by Omoroi Osaka, your trusted guide to the Kansai property market. This week we rolled out a new, more consistent posting schedule designed to give you clearer variety and easier comparisons. Over the past seven days, we featured six houses that highlight Kansai’s mix of suburban family living and compact city builds, along with two condos that showcase both value and investment potential, plus two rental properties offering practical entry points into life in Japan. This structure of 6 houses, 2 condos, and 2 rentals will continue for the next couple of months as we test engagement and refine how we deliver the region’s best opportunities. Whether you are considering a permanent move, a strategic investment, or a temporary base, each Kansai property we showcase is carefully chosen for its balance of location, price, and lifestyle appeal. Dive into this week’s lineup and see which listing speaks to your vision of living or investing in Kansai.

Wrapping Up Week 53


That concludes Week 53 of Japan’s Kansai Property Showcase. This week’s lineup featured a stronger focus on houses, with six unique options ranging from suburban family builds with space to grow, to compact city homes with excellent access and long-term value. Midweek we highlighted two condos, both offering low-maintenance living and solid investment appeal, and we closed with two rentals that continue to serve as practical entry points for those starting life in Kansai. This balanced posting schedule of 6 houses, 2 condos, and 2 rentals will remain in place over the coming months as we test engagement and provide a clearer picture of the market for every type of buyer.


Each property offered its own strengths: houses with livability and long-term upside, condos in strategic locations with consistent demand, and rentals positioned for convenience, affordability, and access to daily amenities. Together they reflect the versatility of the Kansai property market and the range of opportunities available to both end-users and investors.


At Omoroi Osaka, we remain committed to more than just presenting listings. We guide international buyers step by step, from scheduling viewings and translating documents to working alongside licensed agents, legal professionals, and renovation specialists. Whether your goal is to secure a permanent home, build a rental portfolio, or better understand how the Japanese real estate process works, we are here to simplify the journey and give you the tools to succeed.


Thank you for joining us for Week 53. We look forward to continuing this showcase with fresh properties, practical insights, and tailored support to help turn your vision of owning or living in Kansai into reality. Until next week, happy house-hunting in Japan.
