Building a private pool and jacuzzi in a Japanese house

Hello waylonpm,

Welcome to Expat.com

You have raised an excellent question.

Have you managed to gather the necessary information about the feasibility of constructing an indoor spa or pool in your home?

Have you considered reaching out to a real estate agency to guide you to the appropriate department for assistance?

Cheers,

@waylonpm Hello there. I can't answer your question I'm afraid, but I'd love to connect with a fellow American who lives in both Japan and America. If you'd like to get in touch, I'm at***. Thanks.

Waylonpm,

If you are already negotiating houses in Japan then you must be working with a Real Estate Broker, They are usually connected to a Koumuten (construction firm) who do Reform/Renovaton work on the houses they sell. You would do best to ask your Real Estate Broker to introduce you, Jacuzzis aren't too common in Japan because the people already have a hot bath culture at home and go to Onsens when they travel. Residential pools are also rare mostly due to property size limitations. However large acreage homes can have pools. This site is in Japanese but you can use google translate.
