Hello: I'm new to this so please bear with me if I sound like a broken record or if this has been discussed in other posts.
I recently just purchased a property in Sapporo, Hokkaido (Japan). I'm a US citizen, and the property we will use it as a summer and winter home for ourselves, rest of the time we would love to rent it out to cover costs of ownership. So now, here's the tricky part.
We learned that there is a new Minpaku (Home Hosting) Law taking effect on June 15, 2018. So, doing AirBnB maybe a bit tricky as it requires registration with the government and so on.
My question is, exactly what needs to be done? If we really want to do this? Does anyone have any clear answers? I've been Googling online and can't seem to find definite answers to this topic.
Many thanks in advance,
Jay
