You don't need a permit, I see you are English so you acquire your visa online and then when you enter the country find a good real estate office and they should guide you through it, you just need earthquake insurance and personal papers like translated passport, some personal photos and a translator if needed, the rest should be provided by the real estate office or the seller.
