Description
Why You’ll Need This Service
Japanese property closings are uniquely challenging, condensing critical steps—
the Important Matters briefing (重要事項説明), contract signing, identity
verification by a judicial scrivener, and the final bank transfer—into one
intense day. Even minor translation errors or misunderstandings could jeopardize
your purchase, risk your deposit, or leave you responsible for hidden liabilities.
What’s Included
Pre‑Closing Consultation (30‑minute Zoom)
- Walk through the Important Matters briefing line by line, clearly explaining:
zoning restrictions, building regulations, hidden fees, neighbourhood rules,
and any obligations attached to the property. - Arrive at your closing fully informed—reducing stress and uncertainty.
Detailed Document Review & Risk Assessment
- Identify problematic clauses (e.g., unclear rights‑of‑way, undisclosed
maintenance fees, restrictive renovation terms). - Explain payment schedules, penalties, and the risk of losing deposits or
the entire property if payments are missed. - Avoid costly misinterpretations—don’t rely on automated tools like
Google Translate.
Professional Translation with Annotations

essential documents. - Margin notes clarify complex legal jargon and flag sections that need
special attention.
