Investing in Japanese Real Estate with Low Money Down: For Permanent Residents of Japan

Real Estate Japan Inc. is pleased to present the newest installment in our series of investment seminars for foreigners who are interested in taking the first step in Japanese real estate investment.

Low-money down, preferential treatment for Permanent Residents

If you have been living and working in Japan, you are likely aware of the various benefits of Permanent Residency (PR) status. For long-term wealth building, one of the key benefits is the preferential treatment you can receive for obtaining a property investment loan from a Japanese bank. Having Permanent Residency-status can significantly improve your financing terms and return on investment, compared to the terms available for the same investment done with a working visa-status.

We will be discussing the following topics and more:

• How your residency status can significantly change the financing terms that Japanese banks will offer
• Getting mid-risk, mid-level returns by targeting properties with specific criteria that have proven to perform.
• Three big macro-economic and policy shifts that will cause the more properties to come online after 2020.
• Historic price data and price projections showing how residential property prices are on a declining trend and what to do about it.
• Upcoming changes to the earthquake-resistance building code and how this might affect your choice of property.
• As an owner, why you should use a guarantor company to manage tenant-related risks
• The importance of actually viewing a property (even when you can’t enter the property) and what to look for.
• Which banks lend to non-Japanese borrowers in Japan.
• And much more
