From the listing

Property is planned to be delivered as cleared land; the owner will demolish and remove the house, unregistered garage, and part of the block fence. However, the buyer will bear the cost of demolishing and removing the block fence along the water channel on the west side of Tsugaru City Road. / The house may be delivered in its current state upon consultation, though this would require major renovation work. / There is no record of any incidents or accidents affecting the sale judgment of this property. / The municipal water supply has been removed, so new connection from the west side of Tsugaru City Road will be necessary. / Drainage is currently a septic toilet system and other wastewater flows directly; a septic tank will need to be installed. / Boundaries will be surveyed and demarcated by a registered surveyor at the owner's expense before delivery. / Lot 1-6 is currently classified as a water channel for drainage; it will be changed to residential land at the time of delivery. / There is an extra-legal water channel along the west side of Tsugaru City Road; if new construction or expansion work is done beyond using the existing bridge, an annual usage fee of 45 yen per square meter will apply to Tsugaru City. The existing bridge section has no charge. / NTT utility poles are currently buried near the southwest corner of the property. / An unregistered garage currently exists on the east side of the property.

The price in context

The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 3,950 yen per sqm, down about 7% over five years (4,250 to 3,950), which the survey classes as declining.

The asking price works out at about 1,852 yen per sqm of land, 53% below the nearest residential benchmark of about 3,950 yen per sqm. The benchmark is for bare land; akiya prices usually bundle a worn building, so a large gap is normal and does not by itself mean a bargain.

Official records

Area and hazard data

3 checks clear, 3 to know about. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.

Hazards and ground
Earthquake code
Caution
Built before the 1981 earthquake code. Expect a structural survey, harder mortgages, and a retrofit budget; towns often grant part of that cost.

Source: Estimated from year built

Strong-earthquake chance
Note
About 9% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, mid-range for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%

Landslide risk
Checked, clear
Checked: no designated landslide zone at this location. Zone edges are approximate, and this is not a legal property disclosure document.

Source: Government hazard map

Flood risk
Checked, clear
Checked: outside a mapped flood area. The maps cover designated rivers only, so this is not a promise of no flooding.

Tsunami risk
Checked, clear
Checked: no designated tsunami inundation zone at this location

Liquefaction
Caution
High liquefaction susceptibility. A ground survey should be part of any purchase.

Source: National landform survey

A pre-1981 build predates Japan's current earthquake code, which can matter for insurance and renovation. We flag the era from the year built where we have it.

Registration
At least one building on this plot is not registered with the legal affairs bureau. It has to be registered before title can transfer, which adds scrivener cost and time; ask the town how they handle it.
