I've been watching the progress of this Australian, who with his Japanese wife bought an abandoned farmhouse. His work ethic is way better than mine - in the past four years he's made tremendous progress in getting the place fixed up.
I really like the wood beam construction with ceramic tile roof that makes up the style of the home. They bought the house at auction for ¥3mm (about $23,000 USD today). No idea what they've spent to date, but I would guess 3-4 times that.

- UncleOxidant 3y agoIt seems to be a genre on YouTube, here's another channel where they did similar, though they didn't buy the place, they're renting it for $300/year (I had no idea that there were spiders whose eyes glow when you point a flashlight at them) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_Jzd_1c5cA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_Jzd_1c5cA
