This is to check whether the government or other authorities that have jurisdiction over the vacation home property have enacted additional regulations, such as building agreements, that are stricter than those for general residential construction. When purchasing a vacation home property, or land to build a vacation home property, please be aware that the building-to-land ratio and floor-area ratio may be strictly regulated.
For example, even in an area with a designated building coverage ratio of 50% and a designated floor area ratio of 100%, the building coverage ratio and floor area ratio may be set at 35% according to an additional building agreement.
In this way, please note that there may be various regulations, such as the building coverage ratio and floor area ratio being set quite low when rebuilding a building, or the distance between the building and the boundary line of the neighboring land being strictly established.
