Municipal conditions and restrictions

Some towns attach conditions to an empty-home purchase, for example a residency requirement or farmland-law (nochi-ho) approval, which is a local sign-off needed before farmland can change hands or use. These come from the source listing.

  • Seismic diagnosis not conducted; building condition survey not conducted
  • Permission application under Building Standards Law Article 43, Paragraph 2, Item 2 required for reconstruction or renovation

Always confirm the current conditions with the town before you commit.
