There are several housing loans for foreigners.
General bank requirements
There are some important requirements when you will do housing loan examination for foreigners.
1️⃣ Permanent residence or Japanese nationality
2️⃣ Japanese reading comprehension
( Not only Hiragana,Katakana, but also kanji )
3️⃣ Regular employee "Sei shain"
You cannot apply to a general bank without these requirements. However, there are banks where you can apply without these requirements.
They are FLAT 35 and AEON bank. So those banks are banks for foreigners.
Examination level
If you check the table below, I think you know FLAT 35 and AEON bank level are not strict.
FLAT 35 and AEON bank 1st examination level is almost the same. AEON Bank can conduct examinations on the Internet. So 1st, it is better to do AEON Bank 1st examination.
Both of 2nd examination levels are difficult, but AEON Bank is more difficult than FLAT 35.
So this is better,
1️⃣ AEON bank 1st exam → 2️⃣ FLAT 35 1st and 2nd exam → 3️⃣ AEON bank 2nd exam, (according to2️⃣situation)
Most foreigners borrow housing loans from FLAT 35. Because AEON bank is difficult.
So it is better to concentrate on the FLAT 35 examination.
