What the data says
Price growth is speeding up
Condo values per m² have risen about 2.5% a year over the past five years, faster than the 4.9% a year of the five years before. Buyers waiting for a dip have so far been paying more each year, and that has not yet changed.
Lagging Chiba
Per m², condos here are 62% below the Chiba average. Ten years ago the gap was 36%, so Shiroi City has been falling behind the rest of Chiba.
Station distance barely matters
Condos 11–15 minutes from a station sell for similar or higher prices than those near one, which usually means buyers here drive or value quiet residential streets.
A family market
63% of recent condo sales have three or more bedrooms. Demand comes mainly from owner-occupier families, which tends to make prices steadier but rental yields lower.
Sales are thinning out
Transactions are down about 31% on the previous three years. Fewer sales mean less choice and slower resale, so allow more time to sell later.
What a typical purchase costs
Half of all condo sales last year were between ¥5.3M and ¥18.8M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.
A shrinking population
The population fell 2.4% between 2020 and 2025 (−0.4% for the wider area). More people moved out than in during 2025 (about 15.2 per 1,000 residents), which weakens long-term housing demand. Households still grew 2.4% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.
Typical vacancy
7.6% of homes were empty in 2023 (12.3% for the wider area), and 3.7% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. The level of abandoned homes is around the national norm.
Buying vs renting
A median used condo costs about 12.9 years of the area's median rent (¥65k a month), compared with 33.2 years for the wider area. Prices are low relative to rents, which points to higher rental yields, but often also to weaker growth prospects. Rents here cover all rented homes, so treat this as a rough guide.
High earthquake risk
The government's seismic model gives a 58% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (63% for the wider area). Check the building's earthquake standard (post-1981, ideally post-2000 for wooden houses) and consider earthquake insurance.
Official land prices are rising fast
On the government's fixed benchmark sites, which are valued the same way every year, residential land prices changed +7% in the year to January 2026 and +20% over five years. Because these sites don't change, this is the cleanest measure of land value trends.
Little exposure to flooding
Very few of the official benchmark sites here fall in flood, tsunami or landslide zones, so most typical neighbourhoods are outside mapped hazard areas.

About this data
Figures are medians of real transactions reported to Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) through its quarterly price survey. House prices per m² divide the total price (land and building) by the floor area. Medians based on fewer than 20 sales are not shown. The latest quarters are preliminary and are revised as more survey responses arrive.
