Property & building
Current photos, visible conditions, local contact and practical property follow-up.
AFIJ is based in Nagano City. If you are overseas and need someone local to check a property, visit a location, call a Japanese business, take current photos or confirm practical details, start with us.
Initial discussion is free. We explain the scope and price before paid work begins.
General discussion and scope clarification are free. Specific Japan-side calls, research, visits, photos or case-specific checks are paid only after the scope is clear.
Each request is reviewed for location, access, safety, travel time and the evidence you actually need.
Current photos, visible conditions, local contact and practical property follow-up.
Agreed visits, road/access checks, surroundings and current local observations.
Contact property companies, contractors, facilities and local businesses in Japanese.
Company contact, business-address checks and local preparation before a visit.
Review practical winter, mountain or rural access conditions when relevant and safe.
Confirmed facts, direct observations, photos and anything that could not be verified.
Being based in Nagano makes physical follow-up more practical than distant areas.
Nagano Prefecture includes city, rural and mountain areas with very different access conditions.
Use one service or combine them when a request requires both remote contact and real-world action in Japan.
We keep the boundary clear: practical local support, honest reporting, and no claims beyond what can actually be confirmed.
Yes. AFIJ is based in Nagano City, Japan.
Not automatically. Nagano Prefecture is large and travel time, weather, access and cost vary. We review each location first.
Possibly. A normal AFIJ check may include visible observations, photos, access and local contact, but it is not automatically a professional inspection.
Yes, depending on the task. Examples include local photos, contractor contact, visible checks and practical follow-up.
Initial discussion is free. The basic AFIJ rate is US$30 per 30 minutes. On-site work is quoted separately based on time, travel and transportation.
Send the address, map or business name, what you need checked, your deadline and whether you need a call, research or an on-site visit.
