What the data says

Prices are still rising, but more slowly

Growth has cooled to about 1.7% a year, down from 4.7% a year in the previous five years. This looks more like a maturing market than a turning point, and it gives buyers a bit more room to negotiate.

Lagging Fukuoka

Per m², condos here are 38% below the Fukuoka average. Ten years ago the gap was 11%, so Kasuga City has been falling behind the rest of Fukuoka.

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

90% 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 21% 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 ¥14.0M and ¥24.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A shrinking population

The population fell 1.8% between 2020 and 2025 (−1% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025. Households still grew 1.6% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.

Few abandoned homes

11.8% of homes were empty in 2023 (12.4% for the wider area), and 3.5% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. Most empty homes here are rentals between tenants, not abandoned houses, a sign of a healthy market.

Buying vs renting

A median used condo costs about 27.2 years of the area's median rent (¥58k a month), compared with 29.3 years for the wider area. That is a middle-of-the-road ratio for Japan. Rents here cover all rented homes, so treat this as a rough guide.

Lower earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 7% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (7% for the wider area). This is low by Japanese standards, although no part of Japan is free of earthquake risk.

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 +4% in the year to January 2026 and +33% over five years. Because these sites don't change, this is the cleanest measure of land value trends.

Some flood or landslide exposure

Of the official land-price benchmark sites here, which sit in typical neighbourhoods, 6% are inside the worst-case flood zone. Most worst-case flood zones are shallow (under 0.5 m) at the edges, so depth matters as much as the share. Check the hazard map for any specific address before buying.

Median price per m² by yearHouses carry a premium — A m² of house floor costs about 31% more than a condo here, which usually means land is scarce and houses are a premium product. That gap has narrowed over the decade as house prices caught up.

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.
