Looks straightforward. One small point 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.
FineEarthquake standardPost-1981 code (built 2020)
Built under Japan's current “new seismic standard” (shin-taishin, from June 1981). Wooden houses also got stronger joint rules in 2000; this one is after that.
CheckPaying for itLoan only if resident
Foreigners may buy freely, but Japanese banks mostly lend to residents (permanent residents most easily). Non-residents usually pay cash or use an overseas loan.
