For foreign nationals

If you are not a Korean national

  • Kokjib does not calculate a loan for foreign nationals. Your maximum purchase budget is the cash you have available.
  • Mortgage terms for foreign nationals depend on your residence status and the bank. Please check with your bank.
  • This language version calculates for foreign nationals. If you are a Korean national, use the Korean page (한국어) to include a loan.

Foreign-buyer land transaction permit

  • From Aug 26, 2026 to Aug 25, 2027, foreign nationals need a permit from the district (si/gun/gu) office before signing a contract to buy a home in all 25 districts of Seoul, 23 cities and counties in Gyeonggi, and 9 districts in Incheon. Busan is not included.
  • It applies to apartments, detached houses and multi-unit houses (officetels excluded). A contract signed without a permit is void.
  • You must move in within 4 months of the permit and live in the home yourself for 2 years after purchase. Otherwise, a penalty of up to 10% of the purchase price can be charged repeatedly, and the permit can be revoked.
As of October 2026, based on the Ministry of Land notice of Aug 20, 2026. Check the latest notice before you sign.
01 / Koki's diagnosis

Where does my budget
stand?

We compare your maximum purchase budget with apartment prices (24–34 pyeong) in each city or province.
We show how far your budget is above or below those prices.
We also compare it with prices in the area where you live now.
