Is Your Condo Quake Resistant? — For Current & Future Owners
As the average price of new condominiums in Tokyo tops 100 million yen, secondhand apartments have become popular. But purchasing a used condo unit comes with pitfalls.

However, efforts to implement seismic retrofitting are slow, and lots of vulnerable buildings still remain. We take a look at the reasons why and introduce some countermeasures.
