For Those Interested in Relocating to Hokkaido or Living in Two Locations
More and more people are choosing to relocate or live a “dual-life” between two places.

With the spread of telework and online meetings, even company employees can now continue their work from anywhere. In addition, national and local governments have enhanced relocation support programs, making it easier to receive financial assistance. As a result, since the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become much more feasible for ordinary people to live in Hokkaido—away from their workplaces—while maintaining their usual lifestyle.

Relocation or dual-life living is not only about work—it also requires building the right environment for child-rearing, hobbies, and community connections. Today, there are many relocation-related websites developed in cooperation with local governments, making it much easier to access information about relocation that was once difficult to find.

“Relocation + Home Building” — A Perspective Only iezoom Can Offer

Among the wide range of information available about relocation and dual-life living, what we at iezoom can share are real-life stories from people who have built homes and started new lives in Hokkaido.

Homes in Hokkaido’s cold, snowy climate are designed with great attention to winter conditions—from the foundation to the roof, walls, windows, and entrance doors—every part is built with snow and cold protection in mind, emphasizing insulation and airtightness.

Beyond these essential specifications, each builder expresses its own individuality through choices of materials, plans, and designs—using natural materials such as solid wood and plaster walls, creating modern finishes with galvalume steel, or incorporating wood stoves and earthen floors for warmth and character.

iezoom is a home-building web magazine that covers construction companies and builders throughout almost all of Hokkaido. Through careful interviews and photography, we share detailed stories of home building with end users via our website. Our goal is to help readers learn about local construction companies and find the right partner for their own home-building journey.

This special website, “Building a Home in Hokkaido After Relocation,” was created by iezoom for people who wish to build their dream home in Hokkaido as part of their relocation or dual-life plans. By sharing authentic stories of real homeowners, we hope to help visitors discover the unique appeal of each builder and find a wonderful partner for creating their new home.
