RE: Random Japan #31 :: Around the Neighborhood
You may be right. I really don't know the details. All I know is that in the US the used house market is very large, with most people buying and living in used homes and in many cases selling the homes for more money than they paid for them. Yet in Japan very few people buy used homes. They are worthless because no one wants one, so they are almost always knocked down as soon as the owned dies or sells.
