Area and hazard data
1 check clear, 4 to know about, 1 not applicable. 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.
To know about
Earthquake code
CautionBuilt 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
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.
Strong-earthquake chance
WarningAbout 40% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, high for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%
Source: National earthquake-hazard model
Flood risk
CautionWithin a mapped flood area, water 0.5 to 3 m
Source: Government hazard map
Liquefaction
NoteModerate liquefaction susceptibility. Ask for a ground report before major work.

Location

Rules of this akiya bank
These are the bank's published eligibility rules, not confirmation that your intended use of this home is allowed. Check with the municipality and owner.
-
Residence or regular-stay requirement
Explicitly not a blanket requirement or ban
The bank FAQ explicitly says there are no user eligibility requirements; not a property-specific warranty.
That is a rule about the buyer, not a permission to host guests. The lines below still apply.

-
Business-use exclusion
Explicitly not a blanket requirement or ban
Resale/subletting purposes are formally allowed by the rules, but the city asks users to refrain. This does not approve every shop or inn use.
That is not a permission to host guests. Ordinance, zoning and licence rules still apply.

Thinking of renting it out?
What the published rules and maps say about letting this home to short-stay guests, line by line, with sources. This is not a verdict or advice. The town, the bank and the licensing office have the final word.
In Japan, home-sharing (minpaku) under the national home-sharing law is capped at 180 nights a year. A ryokan or inn licence is a separate route with its own building and zoning rules.
-
Local home-sharing ordinance
No home-sharing ordinance for Yamanashi Prefecture appears in the Japan Tourism Agency list of 1 April 2021.
That is not a statement that home-sharing is allowed here: the list may be out of date, and the national rules still apply.
