What the data says
Price growth is speeding up
Condo values per m² have risen about 10.5% a year over the past five years, faster than the 7% 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.
Outperforming Osaka
Per m², condos here are 6% below the Osaka average. The discount has shrunk from 23% ten years ago, so Higashiyodogawa Ward, Osaka City is catching up with its surroundings.
Being near a station is worth a lot
Condos within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 30% 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 market for singles and investors
59% of recent condo sales are studios or 1K/1DK units, typical of rental investment and single workers. Small units are easy to rent but sensitive to new supply. Families will find fewer options.
Sales are picking up
There were about 8% more transactions in the last three years than the three before, so the market is liquid and selling later should be easier.
What a typical purchase costs
Half of all condo sales last year were between ¥9.5M and ¥22.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.
A growing population
The population grew 0.5% between 2020 and 2025 (−0.8% for the wider area). More people moved in than out in 2025, a net gain of about 7.1 per 1,000 residents, so demand for homes is being topped up by newcomers.
Typical vacancy
16.4% of homes were empty in 2023 (14.2% for the wider area), and 5.1% 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 26.9 years of the area's median rent (¥53k a month), compared with 31.7 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.
High earthquake risk
The government's seismic model gives a 64% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (43% 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 +8% in the year to January 2026 and +26% over five years. They are still 57% below their 1991 bubble-era level. Because these sites don't change, this is the cleanest measure of land value trends.
Significant flood risk
Of the official land-price benchmark sites here, which sit in typical neighbourhoods, 100% are inside the worst-case flood zone (64% with expected depths of 3 m or more). 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.
