Set within the Makkari area of Hokkaido, this expansive 51,317 sqm (approximately 15,551 tsubo) landholding presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial piece of land within the wider Niseko–Rusutsu alpine corridor. Positioned along a national route with convenient access, the property combines significant scale, Mount Yotei views, and proximity to two of Hokkaido’s leading ski destinations.

The surrounding landscape captures the essence of Hokkaido mountain living, offering expansive scenery, seasonal beauty, and a level of privacy that is increasingly difficult to find in established resort areas. Makkari provides a quieter alternative to Niseko’s core resort districts while maintaining convenient access to world-class skiing, dining, and outdoor experiences throughout the year.

With its substantial land scale and strategic location, the property provides flexibility for a range of future possibilities, including a private alpine retreat, residential development, or long-term investment holding. Large parcels with direct access to the Niseko and Rusutsu resort markets are becoming increasingly limited, enhancing the long-term appeal of this landholding.

Combining scale, accessibility, and natural surroundings, this Makkari property represents a distinctive opportunity to secure a significant Yotei area landholding in one of Hokkaido’s most recognised alpine regions.

FAQ

1. Sales Process

Answer: The process begins with a formal offer (Offer Acceptance). Once accepted, NISADE drafts the Sale and Purchase Agreement and the Statement of Important Matters. After signing, the buyer pays a deposit to a solicitor’s trust account. Legal documents like the Power of Attorney (POA) and Affidavit are then executed and notarized to finalize the title transfer at settlement.
Answer: The standard timeline for title transfer and closing in the Niseko area is approximately 4 to 6 weeks, though this can be adjusted based on the agreement between the buyer and seller.
Answer: No. Japan offers 100% freehold ownership rights. There are no legal restrictions on foreigners (individuals or entities) purchasing or owning real estate or land in Japan.

2. Investment & Returns

Answer: Niseko is Japan’s fastest-growing real estate market. It has evolved from Asia’s top winter destination into a year-round resort featuring world-class gastronomy and wellness. Significant institutional investment from global firms continues to drive the region’s development.
Answer: Properties typically see between 90 to 120 days of occupancy per year. Net yields generally range from 1% to 3%, depending on owner usage. Returns can be optimized by ensuring availability during peak periods like Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year.

3. Costs & Taxes

Answer: Buyers should budget approximately 5% of the purchase price for closing costs. This includes solicitor fees, acquisition taxes, stamp duty, and agency commissions (typically 3% + ¥60,000 for secondary market sales).
Answer: Owners are subject to an annual Fixed Asset Tax, calculated at 1.4% of the government-assessed value (usually lower than the market price). Additionally, if the property generates rental income, net profits are subject to Japanese Income Tax.

4. Property Management

Answer: Management typically covers reservation handling, general maintenance, utility bill payments, cleaning, laundry, snow clearing, and comprehensive fiscal/accounting services for the owner.
Answer: Management fees generally total around 35% of the nightly rate (split into a 10% administrative fee and a 25% rental management fee), plus annual fixed maintenance costs.
