所有権
shoyūkenしょゆうけん
Ownership (freehold)
Full freehold title to land or a building. Japan places no restrictions on foreign ownership: no citizenship, residency, or visa is required, and freehold land is owned outright and permanently. This makes Japan unusual in Asia, where most countries restrict foreign land ownership.
