What the data says

Price growth is speeding up

Condo values per m² have risen about 10.2% a year over the past five years, faster than the 1.4% 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.

Lagging Toyama

Per m², condos here are priced close to the Toyama average. The premium was 9% ten years ago, so the rest of Toyama has been catching up.

Being near a station is worth a lot

Condos within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 27% 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

59% 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 24% 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 ¥10.8M and ¥33.0M. 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). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025. Households still grew 3.1% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.

Typical vacancy

14.6% of homes were empty in 2023 (14.7% for the wider area), and 6.8% 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 34.5 years of the area's median rent (¥47k a month), compared with 31.9 years for the wider area. Prices are high relative to rents, so rental yields are thin and buyers are paying for expected growth. Rents here cover all rented homes, so treat this as a rough guide.

Lower earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 12% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (10% for the wider area). This is low by Japanese standards, although no part of Japan is free of earthquake risk.

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 +5% over five years. They are still 41% 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, 91% are inside the worst-case flood zone (27% 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.

Median transaction price by yearCondos now cost more than houses — Since 2023, the median used condo has sold for more than the median house with its land, reversing the earlier pattern. Since then condo prices have moved +22% while house prices moved 0%. Condo demand is concentrated in central, well-connected locations, while many houses sold are older homes in outlying areas where prices are flat or falling. Buyers are paying for convenience over space.

Median price per m² by yearHouses are the better deal on space — A m² of house floor space costs about 63% 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. That gap has widened over the decade as condo prices pulled ahead.

Price per m² by building age (2021–2025 sales)Houses bottom out at around 29 years — House prices per m² drop about 70% from new by age 29, 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.
