- For
- English-speaking buyers researching vacant homes in Japan
- Worth noticing
- A featured listing translates three specific risks: urbanisation-control restrictions, pre-June 1981 earthquake standards, and a stigmatized-property disclosure.
Field notes
Filters include “under ¥1M,” “near a station,” “empty now,” and “no red flags.” The featured Tsuruoka property lists its age, layout, floor area, and land area, then explains restricted building rights, pre-1981 earthquake standards, and a stigmatized-property disclosure; the page estimates total purchase costs at ¥2.88M–¥3.44M.
