Akiya in 草津市, Shiga
$18,922⚖️ Court auction
¥2,990,000 · minimum bid (売却基準価額)

⚖️ This is a court foreclosure auction — not a normal sale.

The headline figure is the court's minimum bid (売却基準価額), not an asking price. Buying at auction means paying a deposit (~20%) up front, bidding during a fixed window, often being unable to inspect inside, and sometimes inheriting existing occupants. Read the court's 3-point set (三点セット) before bidding.
