February 2026: What's New

Here's what's new on Akiya Japan this month.

What's new:

  • Better bedroom filters – You can now select exact bedroom counts (e.g. 2 and 3) instead of using min/max ranges.
  • Save properties without subscribing – The heart button now works for all users, so you can build a shortlist before committing.
  • Comparable sold properties – Property pages now show what similar nearby properties have sold for, useful for gauging fair pricing.
  • New search filters – Filter by Furnished or Unfurnished properties, and browse by recreation and attractions like ski resorts, hot springs, and hiking areas.
  • Search alerts fixed – Saved search alerts now correctly apply all your filters including prefecture, property type, and distance. If your alerts felt off before, they should be much more relevant now.
  • More listings from new sources – We've added several new Japanese property portals to our crawlers, so you'll see listings that weren't previously on the site.
  • Cleaner price display – Prices in non-JPY currencies are now smartly rounded for easier reading.

If you're planning a viewing trip, spring is when Japan's property market picks up. Cherry blossom season (late March–April) is also peak tourism, so booking accommodation and agent time early is worth considering.
