    Basic Information on Working Holidays and Building a Career with Overseas Experience

    Do you know about the Working Holiday System ？ The Working Holiday System is a system that allows you to stay in a country for an extended period of time in order to understand the culture and general lifestyle of the country or region with which Japan has an agreement.

    Although a working holiday can only be used once per country, it is attracting attention as a "new type of study abroad" for career and skill development, as it allows you to freely experience "sightseeing," "working," and "studying" during your stay. Why don't you experience the world more closely through a working holiday ？

    What is Duty Free ？?

    A tax-exempt store is a store that is
    exempt from consumption tax when selling certain goods to non-residents, such as foreign tourists, in a certain manner.
    A "tax-exempt store" here means a "place where export goods are sold" as defined in Article 8 of the Consumption Tax Law.

    1. Location ：
    The store must be licensed as a "duty free store".
    Tax free sales are not available to everyone.
    First, each store must obtain permission from the director of the tax office having jurisdiction over the place of tax payment.

    How to take advantage of the Reverse Mortgage, a loan program for seniors age 62 and older ？.

    Reverse mortgages are designed specifically for seniors age 62 and older. It lends against the difference ） between the Equity （ of your home （ minus your current mortgage ） if you have one , but unlike a regular loan, you do not have to make monthly payments. The only thing you have to pay is property tax and fire insurance. Even if you are paying off your mortgage, you are still paying these taxes and fire insurance, just like someone without a loan. The loan can be paid off when the house is sold. Until you sell it, you have 100% ownership of the property and it is treated the same as a regular loan. The loan can be modified as many times as you want, just like a regular loan.

    Below are some highlights of how you can take advantage of this.

    #1 You can use it to buy a house. As you get older, it can be intimidating to take on debt, but with a reverse mortgage you only need about half the down payment, depending on your age, and you don't have to use 100% cash. If you sell your current home and downsize, you can still keep half of the Cash on hand.

    #2 When you suddenly need cash, for example, a large sum of money for roof repairs, medical bills, or car repairs, problems happen when you least expect it. With a regular loan, monthly payments begin, but with a reverse mortgage, no payments occur. This program was created so that seniors can use their homeownership and not have to worry about money problems.

    #3 Increase your retirement income. We live in a world of fast-paced political and economic change. Even if you think you have a retirement plan in place, you can't help but feel anxious about the future. Recently, financial planners have begun to focus on this reverse mortgage. In addition to Social Security, you can also use a reverse mortgage to generate, for example, ＄ 1000 extra income each month. （ Unlike in the past, the FHA rules have improved and financial planners are now comfortable recommending this mortgage. The cost of the loan is now the same as a regular loan. ）

    Even if you have a loan on your home now, you can convert it to a reverse mortgage. Also, since the income is not paying off the loan, you will only be considered to be able to pay property taxes, fire insurance, and Home Owners Due （ ） if any. We would be happy to help you live a long and meaningful life. Please do not hesitate to contact us （ free of charge ） to discuss any concerns you may have about your own or your parents' retirement.

    ＜ Did you know ？ ＞ when you want to buy a house, the first thing you need is the documents from the loan company ！

    Most people, when buying a house, will first contact a real estate agent.
    Then you will be asked, "Do you have a Pre-approval Letter?

    ◎What is a Pre-approval Letter ？
    This is a document that the buyer of real estate can use to prove that he or she can go to a loan company for advice and obtain a loan.

    This Pre-approval Letter is the basis for the loan program, but in many cases it takes a long time to actually get a loan because of
    preparation of credit history and bank ・ statements.

    So, if you think "I want to buy a house soon," we recommend that you contact a loan company as soon as possible.

    At Director's Mortgage, we will introduce you to a mortgage company that will satisfy your ・ future plans.

    Buying a house is a big purchase in your life. You want to make a careful decision.

    If this is the case, please contact Mitsuko Miller.

    For those who want to pay off their loans quickly ！. A Savings Plan to Avoid Regrets in Retirement

    Many people see a loan as a debt and want to pay it off as quickly as possible ！. However, if you put off saving and only put money toward repayment, you may find yourself in a difficult situation when you retire.

    ■ Home values increase every year
    Across the U.S., home prices are expected to increase by an average of about 4% per year. The figure is only 4%, but since home prices are large in value, a 4% increase is a significant amount of money. In this way, it can be said that the price of a house rises by itself just by living in it.

    ■ Do you have a retirement savings plan ？
    Japanese people are very serious and many of them want to pay off their loans as soon as possible.
    However, if all the money that should be saved for retirement were to be used to pay off loans, you would end up living on your pension alone. While it is important to repay loans, it is equally important to save for a comfortable life in retirement. The key point here is what I mentioned earlier: "The value of a house increases by 4% per year. Since the value of a house increases just by living in it, one of your options is to increase your savings through investments and 401K while you are still working, and pay off your loan at a reasonable pace.
    That being said, there are many things about loans that are not clear.
    In such a case, please leave it to us, Mitsuko Miller.
    We provide accurate information so that Japanese people do not lose money without understanding about loans.
