YURI TANIGUCHI
TOKYO REAL ESTATE
My International Journey
I was born and raised in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, before moving to Australia at the age of 13 to study English. Living overseas from a young age gave me the opportunity to meet people from different cultures and see the world from different perspectives. It's an experience that has stayed with me and continues to help me connect with international clients here in Tokyo.
Outside of real estate, I've been practicing karate since I was six years old, and it's still an important part of my life. I've also recently started playing golf, thanks to my wife, who has been playing since she was a child.
In 2026, my wife and I welcomed our first daughter, and I've been enjoying every moment of being a new dad. It's been a wonderful new chapter in my life and has made me appreciate the meaning of home and family even more.
I also love traveling, trying new restaurants, and meeting new people. Getting to know people and hearing their stories is something I've always enjoyed, both personally and through my work as a real estate agent in Tokyo.
For me, real estate is not just about finding the right property. It's also about getting to know the people I'm helping and building relationships along the way.
Thanks for taking the time to get to know a little about me. I look forward to getting to know you too!

Career
Path
After graduating, I worked in Hawaii, handling Japanese furniture and housing equipment sales & installations, gaining hands-on experience in international residential projects.
Later, I took a real estate license in Japan and joined a major Japanese real estate company based in Tokyo, where I specialized in U.S. real estate sales for high-net-worth Japanese investors.
Wanting to combine my international background with on-the-ground expertise in Japan, I joined RE/MAX Japan in 2024, focusing on:
✔Assisting overseas buyers
✔ Tokyo residential & investment properties
✔ Cross-border real estate support in English & Japanese
What I Do Now
I help international clients invest in Japan with confidence — from property selection to purchase, and beyond.
