    Great video Haruka, I think the biggest question is how do non residents get financing to buy an apartment in Tokyo?
    Thank you 😊

    • @PLAZAHOMESltd
      @PLAZAHOMESltd  Рік тому +8

      Hello B-San. Thank you for watching and for leaving us a comment.
      Basically, it is considered difficult for non-residents to obtain financing to purchase a property in Japan. This is because banks require residency in Japan for foreigners to apply for a loan.
      However, for investment purposes, if you meet financial institution’s requirements as well as understand the interest rate being high, there might be a few options that you may be able to try.
      With that said, most of our foreign clients who live abroad tend to go through cash transactions.
      I hope you find this information helpful and please let us know if you have any further questions.

      @PLAZAHOMESltd  Рік тому +1

      You can purchase real estate in Japan despite your nationality, country of residence, visa type, etc. However, please note that you cannot obtain a visa by purchasing your own home. In some cases, if you purchase a property for an investment purpose and conduct a business that will generate a reasonable amount of income, you may be able to obtain a business management visa. I hope this information is helpful and please let me know if you have any other questions.

I plan to buy a condo (which you called Mansion) in Tokyo, but I know it is very difficult for foreigners to open a bank account in Japan, in order to auto-pay the Dues and the Real Estate Tax. After I buy the condo, it is possible for me to open a bank account in Japan, as a foreigner ? Thank you.

      Basically, a non-resident of Japan is not eligible to open a bank account in Japan.
      After buying a property, payment of taxes as well as management fees for condominiums, etc. will be required,
      therefore, we provide a wide range of follow-up services to handle the necessary payments and management of the property.

      Thank you for your message. 
      If you do not live in Japan, taking out a loan in Japan is almost impossible, so cash purchases are required.
      If you live in Japan, there are conditions for taking out a loan, and the screening process takes time, so if you can buy in cash, you can eliminate the loan screening process, which makes the sale transaction faster and easier.

      @PLAZAHOMESltd  15 днів тому

      May we assume your point was regarding the loan duration (the age of full loan repayment)?
      Assuming 79 year is full repayment age, it would be reduced by 34 years loan duration instead of 35 years? If younger than 44 years, 35 years loan duration should be possible but again this is subject to the bank’s assessment result.
