Questions people ask
Can foreigners buy a house in Japan?
Acquisition tax 3 to 4%, registration about 2%, agent 3% plus ¥60,000, stamp duty. Foreigners can own freehold.
How much do buying costs add to the price in Japan?
Plan for roughly 8% of the price plus about €1,500 in fixed fees. On a €43,700 home that is around €4,996. Each home page on RealHunt shows the estimate for that exact price.
Are these homes ready to live in?
That is the rule for everything we publish: no ruins, no land, no homes that clearly need major work. Old houses are fine if they have been looked after. Always get a survey before you buy.
How often is this list updated?
Every day. Homes that sell or get reported as gone are taken down, and new ones are added after a person checks them.
