More sales than any other ward

Ota recorded about 2,100 sales in 2025, the most of any of the 23 wards. It is a big, mixed ward running from wealthy Den-en-chofu to the factories and airport of the bay. Condos cost about ¥1.0M per m², slightly below the Tokyo average, and the median condo sold for about ¥31M.

People are moving in

In 2025 Ota had a net inflow of about 5,700 people from the rest of Japan, about 7.6 per 1,000 residents, fourth among the wards. Population grew 1.5% between 2020 and 2025.

Steady, slower growth

Condo prices per m² rose about 4% a year over the past five years, a little slower than before. Benchmark residential land rose 8% in the past year, less than most wards.

Cheap studios and family homes

Half of condo sales are studios and 1K units, and the 20 m² 1K at about ¥23M is the most traded home. 3LDKs are the second most traded, at a median of about ¥56M. Station distance matters: condos within 5 minutes of a station sell for about 16% more per m² than those 11–15 minutes away. Zoshiki is the cheapest busy station.

Good yields, real risks

A median condo costs about 32 years of median rent, better than the Tokyo average. Earthquake probability is about 64% for 6-lower in 30 years, seventh among the wards. About two-thirds of benchmark sites are in a flood zone, mostly shallow, along the Tama river and the bay. The Haneda Airport South renewal area is reshaping the old airport land.

Median price per m² by yearHouses are the better deal on space — A m² of house floor space costs about 26% 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)How condos age here — In recent sales, condos lose about a quarter of their per-m² value by around 27 years old. Prices keep falling by roughly 1.6% a year even after 25 years, so older condos here are cheap for a reason. Check the repair fund and rebuild plans.Houses bottom out at around 27 years — House prices per m² drop about 32% from new by age 27, 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.

Condo price per m² by construction periodBuilding age matters less than location — Over the last decade, pre-1981 condos have appreciated at about the same pace as 2000s buildings (around 3.8% a year), so in this market location matters more than building age. Pre-1981 buildings, built before the current earthquake standard, trade about 24% below 1980s–90s buildings.

Each line follows buildings from one construction period over time. 1981 is when Japan's current earthquake-resistance standard (shin-taishin) took effect.

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.
