Comprehensive Property Information
This page details the activities of the Koriyama Akiya Bank and the Koriyama Existing Housing Distribution Promotion Council, focusing on their property inspection and evaluation services rather than listing a specific property for sale or rent. The organization conducts thorough 'health checks' on vacant houses to provide detailed, objective data for potential buyers and sellers. The process involves multiple inspection days.
On the first day, inspections are carried out by a first-class architect for visual and measurement assessment, a termite control company for termite investigation, and a real estate appraiser for property valuation surveys. The second day includes dynamic seismic diagnosis of the building, ground survey, and water supply and drainage equipment inspection. The dynamic seismic diagnosis involves applying微弱な地震波 (micro seismic waves) to the building to estimate the degree of shaking in the east-west and north-south directions during a large-scale earthquake. The ground survey investigates the strength of the ground itself and estimates the possibility of resonance between the ground and the building during an earthquake. The water supply and drainage inspection uses a fiber camera inserted into the pipes, similar to a 'stomach camera' examination in humans, to visually confirm the internal condition of the管路 (piping). This also includes checks on住宅設備 (housing equipment) like system kitchens and unit baths, as well as給排水衛生設備 (water supply, drainage, and sanitary equipment) such as water heaters and toilets.
After completing these surveys, the results are compiled. A real estate appraiser then conducts an appropriate price appraisal based on these findings. All information is consolidated into a single成果物 (deliverable) called the 'Koriyama Housing File,' which is reported to the client. This initiative significantly increases the amount of information available about a house compared to traditional 'as-is, where-is' sales without inspection, aiming to enable transactions with greater peace of mind for both sellers and buyers. It is also expected to contribute to migration measures and population decline countermeasures in the long term by providing reliable housing to those wishing to relocate to Koriyama City.
The area surrounding Koriyama City offers a blend of urban convenience and natural beauty. An interesting fact is that Koriyama is known as a major logistics and transportation hub in the Tohoku region. The closest major landmark is the iconic Bandai-Azuma Skyline, a scenic mountain road offering breathtaking views of the Azuma mountain range and Lake Inawashiro, a popular tourist destination for its vast, clear waters and seasonal beauty.
