Draft summary from the listing, not yet reviewed by a founder.
From the listing
Property description: Single-story house in Ainan Town Nakanoura - A must-see for fishing enthusiasts! An elevated property with spacious shed. A 4DK single-story house situated in Ainan Town Nakanoura is presented. Though built in 1973 and aged, the homeowner has maintained it carefully, resulting in good condition. Water and plumbing as well as exterior renovation have been completed, maintaining a clean appearance despite the age. Minor floor weakness and tilt are observed in the Western room and dining kitchen, but other areas are habitable. The bath has been converted to a unit bath, which is an attractive point given renovation costs. Notable is the spacious added shed: unlike typical sheds, it is sturdily built and can function as living space. Perfect for hobby storage and, for fishing enthusiasts, ideal for fishing gear storage and workspace. Positioned on elevated land outside the tsunami inundation zone: no tsunami concerns in Ainan. Nakanoura is slightly removed from Goshō Heijoī, with a very reasonable price. Recommended for: Fishing enthusiasts, those with many hobby tools, those considering relocation, those seeking elevated properties, those seeking affordable properties. For those unconcerned about location or seeking a lodging place for fishing, this is an excellent property. This is also an Ainan Town Akiya Bank registered property. Residents relocating from outside Ehime Prefecture may be eligible for renovation subsidies. / Remarks: Shed portion is unregistered and conveyed in as-is condition; located in steep slope collapse hazard zone / Additional features: Unit bath, 1-tsubo or larger bath, bathroom window, septic tank, washbasin with shower, 2-burner stove, propane gas, municipal water, air conditioning, 2 or more air conditioners, CATV, garden, outside tsunami inundation zone

The price in context
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 14,100 yen per sqm, down about 18% over five years (17,300 to 14,100), which the survey classes as declining.
The asking price works out at about 7,169 yen per sqm of land, 49% below the nearest residential benchmark of about 14,100 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.

Area and hazard data
4 checks clear, 2 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.
- 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.
- Strong-earthquake chance Warning
- About 27% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, high 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.
- 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 Checked, clear
- Low liquefaction susceptibility for the ground here

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.
