Почему сельская Корея?
South Korea has over 1.5 million abandoned rural properties. The government actively incentivizes their redevelopment through grants and subsidies. For foreign investors, these properties offer entry at a fraction of urban prices (often under $100K) while qualifying for a business investment visa. It's one of the most accessible paths to Korean residency that most people have never heard of.

Доверие иностранцев с одной стороны, глубокий доступ внутри Кореи — с другой. Ни у кого больше нет обоих.

Ключевые термины
Инвестиции в корейскую недвижимость связаны с незнакомыми терминами. Здесь всё на понятном языке.
FDI — Foreign Direct Investment
LegalThe legal framework that lets foreigners invest in Korea
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is the formal mechanism by which non-Korean citizens can invest money into a Korean business or property. Korea actively encourages FDI under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act (외국인투자촉진법).
To qualify as FDI — and unlock visa eligibility — your investment must be: • At least ₩100,000,000 (approximately $75,000 USD) • Structured through a registered Korean business entity (법인) • Declared to the relevant government authority before the purchase closes
KoreaRoots explains the full FDI structuring process in plain English and introduces you to the licensed law firms that handle it. You don't need to learn the legal mechanics yourself — but the regulated work is done by licensed partners you engage directly.
