Akiya Search ("the Service", "we", "us") is a free, non-commercial hobby project that aggregates publicly available real-estate listings of vacant houses (akiya) in Japan from third-party sources such as SUUMO and LIFULL Akiya Bank, for informational purposes only. By accessing or using the Service you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
The Service does not sell, broker, or represent any property and is not a real estate agent. All content is provided "as is" and "as available". Listing details โ including addresses, locations, prices, sizes, build years, photos and availability โ are gathered automatically and may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or already sold. Translations are machine-generated. Any Airbnb-income, seismic-risk, currency, or other figures are rough automated estimates and do not constitute legal, financial, tax, investment, or professional advice.
You must independently verify all information with the original source and a licensed professional before relying on it or making any decision.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any errors, omissions, or losses (direct, indirect, incidental or consequential) arising from the use of, or reliance on, information provided by the Service, or from its unavailability. Use of the Service is at your own risk.
Listings, images, trademarks and texts remain the property of their respective owners and original sources. The Service links to external websites over which we have no control and for which we assume no responsibility. If you are a rights holder and want content removed, contact us and it will be removed promptly.
Some features (favorites, watchlists, notifications) require an account. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for activity under your account. You agree not to misuse the Service, including: automated scraping or bulk extraction, attempts to disrupt or overload the infrastructure, circumventing security, or any unlawful use.
The Service is provided voluntarily and may be changed, suspended, or discontinued at any time without notice. We may update these Terms; the current version applies to your use of the Service.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, to the extent permissible. Mandatory consumer-protection provisions of your country of residence remain unaffected.
