Japan’s real estate market has become an attractive option for foreign investors due to the historic depreciation of the yen.
The yen temporarily fell to “1 dollar = 156 yen”. The yen has depreciated for the first time in 32 years. As the yen depreciates, foreign investors are accelerating their purchase of real estate in Japan.
Why Japan real estate is popular with foreign investors
First of all, one of the reasons is that “even foreigners can acquire ownership”. In countries other than Japan, there are many cases where ownership cannot be obtained even if real estate is purchased.
However, in Japan, even foreigners are given the same ownership rights as Japan citizens.
Secondly, “high yield” is also a reason. Real estate in Japan tends to have higher returns than overseas real estate.
For example, yields of 1% to 2% are common in China, but in Japan, even properties in urban areas can yield between 4% and 5%, resulting in high returns.
Third, we need to secure a stable income. Compared to overseas properties, there is a rapid turnover of tenants and less fluctuations in rent, so you can earn a stable income.
For the above reasons, real estate in Japan is becoming increasingly popular among foreign investors.
