Can a foreigner buy it?
Needs careful checks. 1 point to understand before you commit.
FineYou own the landFreehold
Full ownership (shoyūken) of land and house — foreigners have exactly the same rights as Japanese buyers.
CarefulRebuild & road accessRestricted area
Urbanisation control area (shigaika chōsei kuiki): new construction and rebuilds are tightly restricted. Fine if you only renovate, risky if you plan to rebuild.
FineEarthquake standardPost-1981 code (built 1998)
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 before that.
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.
