“It’s not like I’m trying to buy one of those luxury high-rise condos where celebrities and the rich live. A small, ordinary condo would be fine. If we can’t even afford something like that, what’s wrong with this world?”
 

Shiori and Taiga have both made it through college entrance exams and are now working full-time jobs. Even though they live modestly and work hard, Shiori can’t help but feel frustrated and sigh at the fact that they can’t even afford a single condo in Tokyo. Just then, news broke that the number of vacant homes in prime locations across Tokyo was on the rise. How could houses so close to the station be left to rot away, uninhabited...? When the two immediately went to check out one of these vacant homes, an elderly woman from the neighborhood struck up a conversation with them. Feeling sympathy for her—she lived alone in the house next door and relied on delivered boxed meals for her daily meals—the two began helping her with household chores and inviting her over for meals. Eventually, she tells them she’d like to pass the house on to people like them…
 

Meanwhile, Michiyo Hoshino, who had been thinking about what to do with her family home in the rural town of Kazahoshi where her mother lived, decides to sell it and visits a real estate agency run by a local classmate. Upon hearing the unexpectedly high asking price, she and her husband begin planning a trip abroad. Though Michiyo dreams of a life of luxury, no buyer ever appears, and she lowers the asking price time and again. At the same time, she devises various ways to highlight the charms of rural life on her blog. Just then, she receives a message from Shiori and Taiga, who have become interested in buying the house...
 

A serious yet comical look at modern housing trends, penned by the author of *I Have No Money for Retirement!*

「何も私は芸能人やセレブが住む高級なタワーマンションを買おうっていうんじゃないのよ。庶民的な小さなマンションでいいの。その程度の物件も買えないって、この世の中はどうなってんの？」
大学受験を乗り越え、正社員として勤めている史緒里と大河。贅沢もせず真面目に暮らしているのに、都内にマンションの一つも買えないことに、史緒里は怒りとため息を抑えきれない。そんな時、都内の一等地には空き家が増えているというニュースが流れてきた。駅チカの家なのに、誰も住まずに朽ち果てていくなんて……。二人が早速、空き家の見学に行くと、近所の老婦人が話しかけてくる。隣の一軒家に一人で暮らし、日々の食事も宅配のお弁当ですませているという彼女に同情した二人は、その家の雑務をこなしたり、食事に誘うようになる。やがて彼女から、あなたちのような人に、この家を譲りたいと言われるようになり……。
一方、母が暮らしていた田舎・風穂町の実家の処分に思いを巡らせていた星野路代は、実家の売却を決め、地元で同級生が営む不動産会社を訪れる。そこで思わぬ販売価格を聞いた彼女は、夫とともに海外旅行の計画を立て始める。優雅な生活を夢見る路代だが、いつまで経っても購入者は現れず、何度となく販売価格を下げてく。同時に、ブログで田舎の良さをアピールしようと、様々な工夫を凝らしていく。そんな折、この家の購入に興味を持った史緒里と大河から連絡を受けるのだが……。
『老後の資金がありません！』の著者が描く、真面目でコミカルな現代住宅事情。
