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

1 thing 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.

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.
