Pros and cons of this 8LK house

A wooden 8LK house of about 164 m² with one floor above ground and a basement, on a 284 m² lot, built in 1955.

Why it stands out

  • Generous plot: 284.29 m² (about 86 tsubo)
  • Traditional kominka character
  • Vacant: easy to view and quick to hand over

Points to check

  • Built 1955, before the 1981 earthquake code — inspect and budget for reinforcement
  • Old wooden house: expect renovation work (roof, plumbing, insulation)
  • Station is far or bus-only — you will likely need a car

Can a foreigner buy it?

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.

UnknownRebuild & road accessNot stated

Road access is not described. Ask the agent about road width and frontage (needed to rebuild).

CheckEarthquake standardPre-1981 code (built 1955)

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.

FinePaying for itCash-friendly price

At this price most foreign buyers pay cash by international transfer. No Japanese loan or residency is needed to complete a purchase.
