This seminar is designed specifically for foreign residents of Japan and delivered in plain, accessible English. We cover what you need to know about purchasing and financing property in Tokyo — from mortgage options to budgeting, legal steps, and closing costs.

Led by Emil Gorgees, a certified Japanese home loan advisor and founder of RealEstate.jp, the workshop is grounded in over a decade of experience helping foreign professionals secure homes in Japan, often with zero money down and sub-1% interest rates.

  • Employ a large number of foreign professionals or executive families.

  • Want to promote financial literacy and peace of mind among staff.

Seminars can be delivered in-person or online, and are fully customizable to your team’s needs.

Got Questions? We’ve got answers

Answers to help you buy with confidence.

Can foreigners buy property in Japan?

Yes. Foreigners can buy property in Japan with no restrictions, even without permanent residency.

Yes. Expect around 6–8% of the property price in additional costs, including agent fees, taxes, and registration.

This site is focused on helping you buy a home in Japan — whether you’re a resident or overseas.

I don’t live in Japan — can I still buy a property?

Absolutely. Many of our clients buy remotely. We offer virtual tours, video calls, and full support from start to finish — including a funds transfer holding account service, power of attorney so you don’t need to come to Japan, e-signatures for digital contracts, utility setup, and more.

Of course. Book a free consultation to go over your needs, budget, and process before diving in.

No. It’s possible to buy in cash from overseas. But if you need a loan, you’ll need to be a resident of Japan. A Japanese bank account will be opened during the loan process as part of the application.
