Pros and cons of this 7DK house
A vacant 7DK wooden house of 149 m² on a 418 m² lot (about 126 tsubo) in Ama, Aichi, seven minutes on foot from Shippo Station on the Meitetsu Tsushima Line.
Why it stands out

Points to check
- Built 1981, before the 1981 earthquake code — inspect and budget for reinforcement

Good, with a few checks. Nothing blocking, but a couple of points to confirm with the agent.
FineYou own the landFreehold
Full ownership (shoyūken) of land and house — foreigners have exactly the same rights as Japanese buyers.
FineRebuild & road accessRoad access OK
Faces a public road of at least 4 m. Rebuilding is normally allowed.
CheckEarthquake standardPre-1981 code (built 1981)
Built before the 1981 seismic code. Common for cheap houses and not unsafe by definition, but get an inspection and budget for reinforcement; banks and insurers treat these houses differently.
CheckPaying for itPlan on cash
Japanese banks give little value to old wooden houses, and non-residents rarely get loans. Residents and permanent residents have more options.
