Here's What a $400,000 House Looks Like in Japan

A $400,000 home can vary widely in quality depending on what part of the United States you live in. If you're in California like Joey, that's the going rate for an apartment in most areas! If you're in Indiana like me, you can build a sizable mini mansion with that kind of cash! In Japan, you get a weird variety of both. Limited space in the country means lavish houses rise up as opposed to expanding out, and square footage is definitely more limited than even your modest midwestern home. That means you need a lot of tricky architecture, cutting edge technology, and cool layouts to make a home like this appealing to the average Japanese family! 

I love the technology in this Japanese home, but I don't think I would appreciate limited outlets for my electronics or a range that holds less than my good old American grill! For me personally, I don't think I would drop nearly half a million dollars on this house. Check out the video and let me know if you would! P.S. you might have to hit CC for subtitles!
