2026年9月21日断熱等級とZEH、光熱費にどう効くのか

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

「断熱等級5」や「ZEH（ゼッチ）」という言葉、物件情報でよく見かけるけれど、実際どういう意味なのか、なんとなくのイメージで終わっている方も多いのではないでしょうか。今日はここを少し掘り下げてお話しします。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

Terms like "insulation grade 5" or "ZEH" show up constantly in property listings, but a lot of people have only a vague sense of what they actually mean. Today I want to go a little deeper into this one.

断熱等性能等級は、建物がどれだけ熱を外に逃がしにくいか（逆に、外の熱を通しにくいか）を表す等級です。数字が大きいほど、断熱性能が高いとされています。ZEHは「ゼロ・エネルギー・ハウス」の略で、断熱性能を高めたうえで、太陽光発電なども組み合わせて、使うエネルギーと作るエネルギーのバランスをゼロに近づけることを目指した住宅の考え方です。

どちらも、「夏は涼しく、冬は暖かく過ごしやすい家かどうか」の目安になる、というのが基本的なイメージです。

Insulation performance grade indicates how well a building keeps heat from escaping in winter and from coming in during summer the higher the number, the better the performance, generally speaking. "ZEH" stands for "Net Zero Energy House," a concept that combines strong insulation with things like solar panels, aiming to bring the energy a home uses and the energy it generates close to balance.

Both are, at their core, a rough guide to how comfortable a house is likely to be to live in cooler in summer, warmer in winter with less strain on your heating and cooling.

断熱性能が高いと、冷暖房が効きやすくなり、同じ室温を保つのに必要なエネルギーが少なくて済みやすいとされています。これが「光熱費が下がりやすい」と言われる理由です。

ただし、実際にどれくらい下がるかは、住まい方や家族の人数、地域の気候によって変わるため、「必ずこれだけ下がる」と断定できるものではありません。数字だけを見て判断せず、あくまで目安として捉えていただくのがよいと思います。

Better insulation generally means heating and cooling work more efficiently, so less energy is needed to maintain the same indoor temperature. That's the basic reason it's associated with lower utility bills.

That said, how much lower really depends on how a household lives, how many people are in it, and the local climate so it's not something that can be stated as a fixed, guaranteed number. It's best treated as a general guide rather than a precise prediction.

同じ「断熱等級5」でも、実際の暮らしやすさは、窓やサッシの種類、日当たり、間取りによっても変わってきます。等級の数字だけを見て安心するのではなく、開口部の仕様や、実際にその物件でどんな工夫がされているかまで、あわせて確認しておくと、住んでからのイメージが具体的になります。

Even at the same "grade 5," how comfortable a home actually feels can vary based on the type of windows and sashes, how much sunlight the rooms get, and the floor plan. Rather than treating the grade number alone as reassurance, it's worth also asking what's actually been done with the openings and layout in that specific house it makes it much easier to picture what living there will actually feel like.

Selling From Overseas: A Question I Get

Hello to all our visionary investors, global families, and brave pioneers! 

Magandang araw po! It is Vianne, your VIP concierge and property management specialist at Anhome. 

Welcome to another Healing Sunday with us!

A question I hear from a certain kind of client more than others: "I own property in Japan, but I'm not living here anymore can my family member just handle the sale for me?"

One of Yatsuka's posts this week touched on exactly this: having a family member act as your proxy for a sale here. Being family doesn't automatically make it work the transaction still needs to be clearly grounded in the actual owner's own intent, with documents to back that up, and there's usually a step where the owner is confirmed directly, not just represented on paper.

When a client asks me about this, I don't try to guess my way through it or make it sound simpler than it is, especially since the exact documents needed can shift depending on the situation. What I do instead is what I always do when I'm not fully sure of something: I check before I answer, rather than tell a client something that might not hold up once the paperwork actually starts moving. It's not a satisfying answer in the moment "let me confirm that properly" isn't as reassuring as "yes, easy" but it's the one I trust.

For someone managing a property from another country, this isn't a small detail. It can be the difference between a sale that goes through cleanly and one that stalls halfway because a document wasn't quite right, or the direct confirmation step wasn't anticipated. So when this comes up, I try to walk through it patiently, one piece at a time, rather than rushing to a reassuring answer that might not turn out to be accurate.

Why I Double-Check Every Flyer I Make

Hello to all our visionary investors, global families, and brave pioneers! 

Magandang araw po! It is Anna, your bilingual client liaison and content specialist at Anhome. 

Welcome to another Culture Saturday with us!

Flyers are one of the things I actually make here, start to finish the layout, the photos, the wording. One of Yatsuka's posts this week made me think about something I run into more than people might expect: two houses in the same development can look almost identical, but the actual certifications and specs behind them aren't always the same.

That matters for what I do, because it would be so easy to build one flyer template for a development and just swap out the address for each house. It would save a lot of time. But if one unit has a certification the next one doesn't, or the ground survey came back a little different, copying the same claim across every flyer in that development would mean printing something that isn't actually true for that specific house.

So I don't do it that way. Before a flyer goes out, I check what's actually confirmed for that unit, not what was true for the one next door. It's the same habit I have with everything else if I'm not sure, I ask rather than assume it carries over. It's slower, and it means I can't just batch-produce a whole development's worth of flyers in one pass. But it's the difference between a flyer that's accurate and one that just looks accurate.

I think this is a part of my job people don't always think about that making something look polished and making sure it's actually correct are two different jobs, and I'm responsible for both.

2026年9月18日同じ分譲地でも、棟ごとに中身は違う

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

今日は、同じ分譲地の中にある家でも、実は棟ごとに中身が違うことがある、というお話をします。見た目が似ているからこそ、見落とされやすいポイントです。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

Today I want to talk about something easy to overlook: houses built in the same development, right next to each other, can actually be quite different underneath even when they look nearly identical from the outside.

いくつかの区画をまとめて開発する分譲地では、外観のデザインが統一されていることがよくあります。ただ、外観がそろっていても、実際の地盤の状態や、建物ごとの細かい仕様、取得している認定の有無は、棟ごとに違うことがあります。

同じ現場で同じ時期に建てられていても、地盤の強さは区画によって差があることがありますし、設備の仕様が棟によって少し異なる場合もあります。

When several lots are developed together, the exterior design is often standardized to look consistent. But even with matching exteriors, the actual ground conditions, the detailed specifications, and whether a given certification was obtained can vary from one house to the next.

Even within the same development, built around the same time, the strength of the ground can differ from lot to lot, and the exact equipment specs can vary slightly between houses.

耐震等級や長期優良住宅の認定は、分譲地全体に一括で与えられるものではなく、原則として建物ごとに判断されるものです。パンフレットや広告に「耐震等級3」「長期優良住宅」と書かれていても、それが分譲地全体を指しているのか、購入を検討している棟そのものを指しているのかは、別に確認したほうが安心です。

Things like seismic resistance grade or long-life quality housing certification aren't granted to an entire development as a block  they're generally assessed per building. Even if a brochure mentions "seismic grade 3" or "certified long-life housing," it's worth separately confirming whether that applies to the development in general or specifically to the house you're considering.

気に入った分譲地が見つかったら、その分譲地全体の評判だけでなく、実際に検討している棟について、地盤調査の結果や、その棟が取得している認定を個別に確認することをおすすめします。「隣の棟がこうだったから、うちも同じはず」と思い込まず、その1棟ごとの情報を見ることが、あとで困らないための一番の近道です。

Once you've found a development you like, it's worth checking not just the development's general reputation, but the specific soil survey results and certifications for the actual house you're considering. Rather than assuming "the house next door was like this, so ours must be too," looking at the information for that one specific house is the most reliable way to avoid surprises later.

2026年9月17日親族に売却を代理してもらうときの注意点

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

今日は、「自分の代わりに、家族に売却の手続きを進めてもらいたい」というご相談があったときに、実際どんな準備が必要になるか、というお話をします。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

Today's topic is something that comes up more than people expect: wanting a family member to handle the sale of a property on your behalf. Here's what actually needs to be in place for that.

高齢の親御さんの代わりに、お子さんが手続きを進めたい、といったご相談をいただくことがあります。ただ、家族だからという理由だけでは、売却の手続きはそのまま進みません。売主本人の意思にもとづいて行われる取引であることを、きちんと確認できる形にしておく必要があります。

We sometimes hear from someone wanting to handle a sale on behalf of an elderly parent, for example. But being a family member alone doesn't let the process move forward on its own. The transaction still needs to be clearly grounded in the actual seller's own intent, in a way that can be properly confirmed.

本人（売主）側では、委任状や本人確認書類が必要になります。代理人側にも、本人確認書類や、場合によっては続柄が分かる書類が求められます。委任状には、何を、どこまで任せるのかが具体的に書かれている必要があり、内容があいまいだと、手続きの途中で確認が止まってしまうことがあります。

■ The documents typically needed for a proxy sale

On the seller's side, a power of attorney and identity documents are generally required. The person acting on their behalf also needs identity documents, and sometimes proof of the family relationship. The power of attorney needs to clearly spell out exactly what's being delegated and how far that authority goes if it's vague, the process can stall partway through while that gets clarified.

書類がそろっていても、本人の意思を直接確認する場面が入ることがあります。これは代理人や家族を疑っているということではなく、契約が本人の意思にもとづいていることを、第三者の立場からも確認できるようにするためです。特にご高齢の方が売主の場合、この確認がより丁寧に行われることがあります。

Even with all the paperwork in order, there's often still a step where the actual seller's intent is confirmed directly. This isn't about distrusting the family member acting on their behalf it's about making sure, from a neutral standpoint, that the contract genuinely reflects what the seller wants. This step tends to be handled with extra care when the seller is elderly.

必要な書類や確認の流れは、状況や取り扱う不動産会社によって多少異なります。「前にこうだったから今回も同じはず」と思い込まず、早い段階で担当者に相談し、何がいつまでに必要になるかを確認しておくと、手続きがスムーズに進みやすくなります。

The exact documents and confirmation steps can vary somewhat depending on the situation and the real estate company involved. Rather than assuming "it worked a certain way before, so it'll be the same this time," it helps to talk to someone early and confirm what's needed and by when that tends to make the whole process go more smoothly.

2026年9月14日調整調整区域の家、建築許可と開発許可の違い

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

今日は、「市街化調整区域」と呼ばれるエリアの物件を検討するときに、意外とよく混同されがちな2つの許可についてお話しします。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

Today's topic is about a certain type of land in Japan called a "controlled urbanization area," and two kinds of permission that often get mixed up when dealing with it.

市街化調整区域とは、簡単に言うと「街を無秩序に広げすぎないように、国や自治体が建物を建てる範囲を制限しているエリア」のことです。都市部の便利な場所とは違い、農地や自然を残す目的で、新しく家を建てることに一定の制限がかかっています。

だからといって「家を建てられない」というわけではなく、条件を満たせば建築できるケースも多くあります。ただ、その条件の確認の仕方に、誤解が生まれやすいポイントがあります。

In plain terms, this is land where the government limits new construction, so that towns don't spread out in an unplanned way. Unlike land in a more built-up, convenient part of town, these areas are meant to preserve farmland and open space, so building a new house there comes with certain conditions.

That doesn't mean building is impossible plenty of houses do get built there once the right conditions are met. But this is exactly the area where a common misunderstanding tends to happen.

家を建てるときの許可というと、ひとつにまとめて考えてしまいがちですが、実際には「建築許可（建物そのものを建てる許可）」と「開発許可（土地の造成や区画の変更を伴う開発行為についての許可）」は、別々の手続きです。

どちらか一方だけを確認して「これで大丈夫」と思い込んで話を進めてしまうと、後になってもう一方の手続きが必要だったと分かり、計画が止まってしまうことがあります。ふたつは似ているようで、対象にしている内容が違う、ということをまず知っておくことが大切です。

It's easy to lump these together, but "building permission" (permission to construct the building itself) and "development permission" (permission for land alteration or subdividing that changes the land itself) are two separate processes.

If someone confirms just one of them and assumes everything is set, they can later discover the other one was also required and the whole plan grinds to a halt. The two sound similar, but they cover different things, and that distinction is worth understanding from the start.

すべての建築で、開発許可が必要になるわけではありません。たとえば、土地の形や区画を変えずに建て替える場合など、一定の条件のもとでは開発許可が不要になるケースもあります。ただし、これは物件や自治体の判断によって変わる部分が大きく、「うちも同じはずだから大丈夫」と思い込むのは危険です。

Not every construction project needs development permission. In certain cases such as rebuilding without changing the shape or boundaries of the land it may not be needed at all. That said, this depends heavily on the specific property and the local government's judgment, so assuming "mine must be the same as that other case" can lead you astray.

The Question I Get Asked Most Often

Hello to all our visionary investors, global families, and brave pioneers! Magandang araw po! 

It is Vianne, your VIP concierge and property management specialist at Anhome. 

Welcome to another Healing Sunday with us!

Most days, my desk work looks nothing like real estate advice I'm updating our site and uploading listing details into our Taktas cloud system: prices, locations, sizes, photos. When a price changes or a property sells, I update it right away, because the one thing I really don't want is a client reaching out about a home that's already gone. That kind of real-time accuracy is something I take seriously.

But every so often, a foreign client is actually going through the buying process, and I switch into a different kind of work: explaining what's happening, in English, step by step. One question comes up more than any other: "Can I just buy this house for my son / my daughter?"

Here's where my usual way of working actually matters most. When I don't know something a word, a rule, how something specific works  I don't guess. I check first. It's not about asking permission; it's about making sure what I tell someone is actually correct, especially when the vocabulary is still something I'm building up in Japanese. And this question is exactly the kind where guessing would be the wrong move: Japanese mortgages are generally set up around the idea that the person borrowing the money is the person who lives in the home, so a parent wanting to buy for their adult child usually doesn't fit a standard loan the way people assume it will.

I don't have a single tidy answer to give when this comes up it depends on the family, the bank, and details I can't know from one conversation. What I can do is walk through it honestly instead of promising something I haven't actually confirmed. That's the same instinct that has me double-checking a listing price before a client sees an old number. Get it right, or go find out don't fill the gap with a guess.

If you're one of our visionary investors, global families, or brave pioneers thinking about buying a home in Japan for yourself or your family, I'm happy to walk you through what that conversation actually looks like. Reach out anytime.

The Word That Still Trips Me Up at Work

Hello to all our visionary investors, global families, and brave pioneers! Magandang araw po! 

It is Anna, your bilingual client liaison and content specialist at Anhome. 

Welcome to another Culture Saturday with us!

Most of my work here is behind the scenes shooting and editing videos, putting together flyers, in English and Japanese. But every so often, a foreign client is in the middle of buying a property, and I step into a different role: explaining, in English, what's actually happening in the process.

This week, one of Yatsuka's posts covered a term that comes up on Japanese property disclosure forms: "boundary encroachment" something as small as a roof edge or a fence sitting slightly over the property line. It's a good example of the kind of moment I run into. It's not a phrase from everyday conversation. It's not something I can guess my way through.

That matters to me more than it might sound like it should, because of how I try to work in general. If I don't know something, I ask I don't fill in the gap with a guess and hope it's close enough. It's the same instinct whether I'm confirming a detail with a coworker or making sure I'm about to tell a client something that's actually correct. With a term like this, getting it slightly wrong isn't a small mistake it could make someone think there's a serious problem with a property when there isn't, or the opposite.

So when something like this comes up, I don't try to sound like I already know it perfectly. I check. I ask. I make sure the explanation I give actually matches what the term means, not just what it sounds like it means. It's slower than winging it, but it's the only way I trust the answer I'm giving.

I think that's honestly the throughline in most of what I do here, whether it's a video edit, a flyer, or a client question I wasn't expecting: do it properly, ask when unsure, and don't sit on it.

2026年9月11 日子のために家を買う、詰まりやすい壁とは

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

「子どものために家を買ってあげたい」というご相談、実はよくいただきます。ただ、いざ進めようとすると、思っていたより話がスムーズにいかないことがあります。今日はそのあたりを整理してお話しします。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

"I'd like to buy a house for my child" is a request we hear fairly often. But once people actually try to move forward with it, things don't always go as smoothly as expected. Today I want to unpack why.

住宅ローンは基本的に、「実際にその家に住む本人」が借りる前提で組まれています。そのため、親がローンを組んで子どもが住む、あるいは子ども名義にしたいけれど返済は親が中心になる、といった形にしようとすると、通常の住宅ローンの枠組みでは対応しづらいことがあります。

これは審査に落ちるというより、そもそも「想定している使い方」が、一般的な住宅ローンの前提と少しずれてしまっている、というイメージに近いです。

Mortgages are generally structured around the idea that the person borrowing the money is also the one who will live in the home. So when a parent wants to take out the loan while the child lives there, or wants the child to be the nominal owner while the parent handles most of the repayment, it doesn't always fit neatly into a standard mortgage.

It's less that the application gets "rejected," and more that the way the purchase is set up doesn't quite match what a typical home loan assumes from the start.

こうしたケースでは、いくつかの進め方が検討されます。たとえば、子ども自身が契約者となり親が連帯保証人という形で支える、親子の収入を合算して申し込む、親族が住むための住宅ローンを扱っている金融機関を探す、といった方法です。

どれが合うかは、収入の状況やご家族の考え方によってかなり変わります。金融機関によって扱っている商品も条件も異なるため、「これが唯一の正解」と言えるものはありません。

A few approaches tend to come up: the child becomes the named borrower with a parent as guarantor, the parent and child combine their incomes on a joint application, or the family looks for a lender that specifically offers loans for a relative to live in the home.

Which one fits depends a lot on the family's income situation and how they want to structure things. Since products and conditions vary by lender, there isn't one single "correct" path that works for everyone.

このテーマは、金融機関ごとに扱いがかなり違うところです。「うちの場合、何が使えるのか」「親としてどこまで関わる必要があるのか」といった具体的な条件は、実際に金融機関や専門家に相談しながら確認するのが一番確実です。ネットの情報だけで「うちも同じはず」と決めつけてしまうと、後で話が変わることもあります。

This is an area where practices vary a lot between lenders. The specifics what's available for your situation, and how involved a parent needs to be are best confirmed directly with a lender or a professional, rather than assumed from general information online, since the details can differ from what you've read.

2026年9月10日　解体費とアスベスト、特約一行で変わる負担

こんにちは。アンホーム（フォローアップ株式会社）の矢塚です。

古い家を建て替えたり、更地にしてから売ったりするときに、意外と見落とされがちなのが「解体費用」と「アスベスト」の話です。今日はこのふたつについて、契約書の中の小さな一文がどれだけ大きな意味を持つか、というお話をします。

Hello, this is Yatsuka from Anhome (Follow-Up Inc.).

When an older house is torn down whether to rebuild or to sell the land as-is two things often get overlooked: demolition cost and asbestos. Today I want to talk about how a single line in a contract can end up deciding who's responsible for both.

アスベストは、以前は建材によく使われていた材料で、今は使用が禁止されています。ただ、古い建物には今も残っている場合があり、解体するときには、含まれているかどうかの調査が必要になることがあります。もし含まれていた場合、通常の解体よりも手間や費用がかかることがあります。

これは「古い家だから危ない」という話ではなく、「解体する前に、きちんと調べておく必要がある」という、手続き上の話です。

Asbestos used to be a common building material and is now banned, but older buildings can still contain it. Before demolition, a check is often needed to confirm whether it's present. If it is, the work can take more time and cost more than a standard demolition.

This isn't about an old house being "dangerous"  it's simply that a proper check needs to happen before the demolition itself.

契約書には「特約」と呼ばれる、個別の取り決めを書き込む欄があります。ここに書かれている一文によって、「誰が解体するのか」「アスベストが見つかった場合、誰がその費用を負担するのか」が、実は大きく変わることがあります。

たとえば、「解体は買主が行う」という一文があるだけで、後から見つかった追加費用も買主側の負担になるケースがあります。逆に、売主側が負担する形で特約が書かれていることもあります。どちらが正しい・間違っているという話ではなく、「誰が」「どんな条件で」負担するのかが、その一文で決まってしまうということです。

Contracts often include a section for special provisions individual terms specific to that deal. A single line there can determine who's responsible for the demolition itself, and who pays if asbestos turns up.

For example, a line stating "the buyer will handle demolition" can mean any additional cost discovered later including asbestos-related work falls on the buyer. In other cases, the same clause might place that responsibility on the seller instead. Neither is inherently right or wrong the point is that this one line quietly decides who carries the risk, and under what conditions.

工事の内容そのものと、費用を誰が負担するかは、分けて考える必要があります。「解体は誰が行うか」だけでなく、「もし何か見つかったら、その追加費用は誰が持つのか」という条件の部分まで、契約前に文章で確認しておくことをおすすめします。口頭での説明だけで済ませず、書面に書かれている言葉そのものを見ておくことが大切です。

It helps to separate two questions: what work will actually be done, and who pays for it. Beyond just "who handles the demolition," it's worth confirming, in writing, what happens if something like asbestos is found  and who covers that additional cost. Don't rely on a verbal explanation alone; look at the actual wording in the document itself.
