Ownership check

Foreigners can buy property in Japan on the same terms as locals. Here is what this listing says.

2 things to check before you go further.
  • FreeholdYou would own the land, not lease it.
  • Needs permission to build (農地法)Farmland. Transfer needs an agricultural committee filing, which is the usual sticking point for a buyer who is not a registered farmer.
  • Built 1987, wooden, before the 2000 updateMeets the 1981 code but not the 2000 rules for wooden houses. Ask for an inspection.

Read from the listing. Ask us and we confirm each point before you spend money on a trip. Cash buyers can buy from abroad; Japanese mortgages usually need residency.
