Pros and cons of this 12LDK house

Why it stands out
- Generous plot: 1729 m² (about 523 tsubo)
- Traditional kominka character
- Vacant: easy to view and quick to hand over
Points to check

- Old wooden house: expect renovation work (roof, plumbing, insulation)
- Large plot means more upkeep (weeding, fences, snow)

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.
FineRebuild & road accessRoad access OK
Faces a public road of at least 4 m. Rebuilding is normally allowed.
CheckEarthquake standardPre-1981 code (built 1930)
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.
