What the data says

Prices are still rising, but more slowly

Growth has cooled to about 0.1% a year, down from 1.8% 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.

Moving with Miyazaki

Per m², condos here are priced close to the Miyazaki average. That position has barely changed in ten years, so it moves with the wider market.

Being near a station is worth a lot

Condos within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 22% 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

67% 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 12% 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 ¥10.3M and ¥26.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A shrinking population

The population fell 2.9% between 2020 and 2025 (−4.7% for the wider area). More people moved out than in during 2025 (about 2.7 per 1,000 residents), which weakens long-term housing demand. Households still grew 1% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.

Typical vacancy

12.6% of homes were empty in 2023 (16.3% 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.

Buying vs renting

A median used condo costs about 28.9 years of the area's median rent (¥46k a month), compared with 32.8 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 43% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (34% for the wider area). Post-1981 buildings are designed for this level of shaking, but check ground conditions and insurance.

Official land prices are edging up

On the government's fixed benchmark sites, which are valued the same way every year, residential land prices changed +1% in the year to January 2026 and +3% 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, 53% are inside the worst-case flood zone (3% with expected depths of 3 m or more), 13% are in a tsunami inundation 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 are the better deal on space — A m² of house floor space costs about 32% less than a m² of condo, even though the house price includes land. If you need room more than convenience, a house buys considerably more space.

Price per m² by building age (2021–2025 sales)Houses bottom out at around 39 years — House prices per m² drop about 66% from new by age 39, 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.
