Ichihara property questions, answered plainly

Yes. Japan does not require citizenship or residency to own real estate. Ownership does not give you a visa, and financing, tax, and document needs depend on your situation.

Can low utility costs be assumed on an Ichihara house?

No. Confirm public water and sewer or well and septic systems, drainage, fuel, internet, waste service, repair history, and contractor access.

What types of homes are for sale in Ichihara?

Ichihara listings can include city condos or apartments, detached houses, family homes, and older properties. The mix changes by area, station access, building age, condition, and asking price.
