This episode of the Smart Property Investment show takes us further afield than just the Australian property investment market. Phil Tarrant is joined by co-owner of Myoko Vista Warrick O'Brien who shares how he went from investing in property in Australia to owning and running a ski lodge just two hours from Tokyo.

With Warrick and his wife Louise looking to change their life direction, the pair gave up their corporate jobs in what Warrick refers to as a "midlife crisis" with the intention of combining their passion for the snow and for property investment.

Warrick shares his story of visa complications, the language barrier and what many Australians would consider an unusual business transaction and discusses what it was like renovating in Japan comparative to Australia.
