When selling a detached house that you own, not just in Niseko, a common problem is "timing (when to sell)". 
When is the best time to sell a detached house? 
We will explain the best time to sell a detached house and the timing to be careful about when selling. 

■ Best timing to sell a detached house in Niseko 

The best timing to sell a detached house varies depending on the person and the circumstances. 
The following timing is possible.

・ Make personal circumstances the timing of the sale 

If you are selling a detached house you own in Niseko for personal reasons such as moving, transferring, or raising funds, it is best to sell at a timing that suits those circumstances. 

For example, in the case of raising funds, if you do not sell the detached house at the time when you need the funds, you may be in trouble, such as "the sale money was not deposited until the required date". 

I want to sell by this date. I need funds by this date. 
The timing of the sale is set to a date that suits your schedule and circumstances.

・ Make the market price and demand trends the timing of the sale 

The market price of properties such as detached houses and land is always changing. 
Niseko's real estate demand is also always changing, and in recent years it has remained high. 

Check the real estate market price and real estate demand in the area where you want to sell your detached house, such as Niseko, and when the market price is high and demand is increasing, that is the time to consider selling.

・The age of the detached house is the timing to sell 

The value of a detached house decreases as the years go by. 

In the case of a detached house, the value will basically fall to 10% to 20% after 15 years. 
Even if a detached house was worth 100 million yen when it was new, the asset value will be about 10 million to 20 million yen after about 15 years. 

If the detached house is about to be 15 years old, it is possible to sell it before it exceeds 15 years.

・Determine the timing of selling based on the tax on the detached house 

When selling a detached house, tax is levied on the profit. 
In addition to the tax rate changing depending on the period of ownership of the detached house, the availability of deductions and special exemptions also changes depending on the selling case. 

The longer the period of ownership, the lower the tax rate. You can use deductions and special exemptions to save on taxes. 
Selling a detached house at the following times is considered. 

Selling after ownership period of detached house exceeds 5 years → Income tax 15% Resident tax 5% 

Selling before ownership period of detached house exceeds 5 years → Income tax 30% Resident tax 9% 


■Timing to be careful about when selling a detached house in Niseko 

When selling a detached house in Niseko, there are some timings to be careful about.

・Timing when it is difficult to judge how the market price and demand will move in the future
・Timing when the tax rate for selling detached houses will be lowered soon 

If it is difficult to judge how the market price and demand will move in the future, we recommend that you first get advice from a professional. 
This is because the ease of selling and the sales result may change depending on the ups and downs of the market price and demand. 
Since it may affect the outcome, we recommend that you first consult a professional and carefully decide whether to sell. When 

the tax rate for detached houses is likely to be lowered, the question is "Should I sell now" or "Wait until the tax rate is lowered?" If 

you wait until the tax rate is lowered, you may miss the opportunity to sell and lose. There is a possibility 
that the tax rate will be lowered and you will gain. 
Both are possible. 

We recommend consulting a professional on how to judge the timing of the sale.
