Expensive and getting more so

Shibuya is the fourth most expensive of the 23 wards at about ¥1.6M per m² for a used condo, 1.5 times the Tokyo average. The median condo sold for about ¥63M in 2025 and the median house for about ¥400M. Prices per m² rose about 6% a year over the past five years, faster than the five years before.

The ward that is losing people

Shibuya's population fell 2.0% between 2020 and 2025, the biggest drop of any ward, and in 2025 more people moved out to the rest of Japan than moved in. Households still grew slightly, so the residents who remain are older or smaller households. High prices are pushing families out.

Two very different markets

Yoyogi-Uehara, Kita-Sando and Daikanyama sell at about ¥1.9–2.0M per m², while Hatagaya and Sasazuka in the west sell at about ¥1.1–1.2M, 40% less. The cheapest quarter of condos sold for under ¥30M and the top quarter for over ¥130M.

Walking farther costs more

Condos 11–15 minutes from a station sell for about 9% more per m² than those within 5 minutes. The quiet residential areas of Shoto, Uehara and Hiroo are a little away from stations and cost more, not less.

Rents and renewal

A median condo costs about 47 years of median rent, one of the weakest ratios among the wards. Shibuya sits mostly on high ground: fewer than one in five benchmark sites is in a flood zone, all shallow. The Shibuya Station renewal area is in the middle of a decades-long rebuild, and part of the Shinjuku Station area also falls in the ward. Official residential land is still about 57% below its 1991 bubble peak, the biggest gap of the central wards.

Median transaction price by yearA jump driven by what sold — The median condo price rose 37% between 2023 and 2025. Per m², prices rose only 19%, so most of the jump comes from larger or higher-end properties changing hands, not from the same homes getting that much more expensive.

Median price per m² by yearHouses and condos cost about the same per m² — A m² of house floor costs roughly the same as a m² of condo, even though the house includes its land. That usually means land here is expensive, so a house is not a cheap way to get 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 6 years old and half by around 36. Prices keep falling by roughly 1.5% 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 23 years — House prices per m² drop about 33% from new by age 23, 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 4.3% a year), so in this market location matters more than building age. Pre-1981 buildings, built before the current earthquake standard, trade about 22% below 1980s–90s buildings.

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.
