What the data says

The trend has turned down

After rising earlier, house prices per m² have slipped by about 1.4% a year over the last five years. That often reflects weaker local demand, so check vacancy and population trends before buying.

Lagging Chiba

Per m², houses here are 18% below the Chiba average. Ten years ago the gap was 10%, so Yotsukaido City has been falling behind the rest of Chiba.

Being near a station is worth a lot

Houses within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 72% more per m² than those 11–15 minutes away. If budget is tight, a longer walk is the quickest way to cut the price.

Sales are thinning out

Transactions are down about 23% 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 house sales last year were between ¥11.0M and ¥36.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A growing population

The population grew 0.7% between 2020 and 2025 (−0.4% for the wider area). More people moved in than out in 2025, a net gain of about 4.8 per 1,000 residents, so demand for homes is being topped up by newcomers.

Typical vacancy

10.8% of homes were empty in 2023 (12.3% for the wider area), and 4.9% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. The level of abandoned homes is around the national norm.

High earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 66% 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 +5% in the year to January 2026 and +11% over five years. They are still 77% below their 1991 bubble-era level. 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.
