What the data says

Steady, predictable growth

Condo prices per m² have climbed about 2.1% a year, roughly in line with the previous five years. There is no sign of overheating or a sudden slowdown.

Lagging Kanagawa

Per m², condos here are 49% below the Kanagawa average. Ten years ago the gap was 32%, so Asahi Ward, Yokohama City has been falling behind the rest of Kanagawa.

Being near a station is worth a lot

Condos within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 46% more per m² than those 11–15 minutes away. If budget is tight, a longer walk is the quickest way to cut the price.

A family market

61% 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.

What a typical purchase costs

Half of all condo sales last year were between ¥9.6M and ¥27.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A shrinking population

The population fell 2.3% between 2020 and 2025 (−0.5% for the wider area). More people moved in than out in 2025, a net gain of about 4 per 1,000 residents, so demand for homes is being topped up by newcomers. Households still grew 0.8% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.

Few abandoned homes

9.3% of homes were empty in 2023 (9.8% for the wider area), and 3.1% 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 23.2 years of the area's median rent (¥65k a month), compared with 34.7 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.

Moderate earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 39% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (56% for the wider area). Post-1981 buildings are designed for this level of shaking, but check ground conditions and 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 +3% in the year to January 2026 and +12% over five years. They are still 47% 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.

Price per m² by building age (2021–2025 sales)Houses bottom out at around 14 years — House prices per m² drop about 36% from new by age 14, then flatten, because by then buyers are mostly paying for the land. A house older than that costs little more than its plot, a good option if you plan to renovate or rebuild.

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.
