Understand the contract on the day you sign it, not after

The promise

A plain reading of the important matters explanation and the sale and purchase contract, covering the deposit, loan-approval conditions, and how defects discovered after handover are handled — so the terms are understood before the day of signing rather than during it.

The problem

A property purchase in Japan involves several documents arriving close together, often near the deadline for signature. The important matters explanation is lengthy and technical, and the contract itself is easy to sign on trust that the agent has covered the relevant points. Conditions tied to loan approval and to defects found after handover are the two areas most often left unclear at that stage.

The solution

The contract and disclosure documents are read together, checking that the deposit terms, loan condition, and defect-handling clauses match what was represented during the transaction. Anything worth confirming with the agent in writing is set out as a short note you can send before signing.

The experience

Support runs across two consultations — an early one once the contract draft is available, and a second closer to signing once conditions are finalised. Document review sits between the two, so questions from the first call can be checked against the paperwork before the second.

The investment

The proof

Progress is tracked against the two-call structure: the first sets out what to check, the second confirms it was addressed before signing. Timing follows the transaction schedule set by the agent, so the two consultations are placed to fit around it.

The guarantee

If the transaction includes matters better suited to a different specialist, that is said directly rather than taken on regardless. An initial outline of the purchase and its stage carries no obligation.
