They Bought 5 Akiya Houses in Japan

Mar 02, 2025
 

Take and Joey met back in college.

Years later, they live on opposite sides of North America.

Take is in California. Joey is in Nova Scotia.

But that hasn’t stopped them from buying houses in Japan.

In just one year they bought five. And they’re not done.

Now they’re building Akiya-Mart, a site helping people worldwide do the same.

No matter where you live, they’re proving it’s possible.

How did they pull it off? What challenges did they face? What’s next?
