Data updated 2026-11-11 · Source: MLIT transaction price survey, 2005 Q3–2026 Q2 · Transactions in 2025: 89

In short

  1. 1
    The trend has turned down

    After rising earlier, house prices per m² have slipped by about 5.3% a year over the last five years.

  2. 2
    Lagging Kanagawa

    Per m², houses here are 68% below the Kanagawa average.

  3. 3
    Station distance barely matters

    Condos 11–15 minutes from a station sell for similar or higher prices than those near one, which usually means buyers here drive or value quiet residential streets.

  4. 4
    A mixed market

    Condo sales are split between small units (12%) and family-sized homes (36%), so the market serves both investors and owner-occupiers.

What the data says

The trend has turned down

After rising earlier, house prices per m² have slipped by about 5.3% a year over the last five years. That often reflects weaker local demand, so check vacancy and population trends before buying.

Lagging Kanagawa

Per m², houses here are 68% below the Kanagawa average. Ten years ago the gap was 51%, so Miura City has been falling behind the rest of Kanagawa.

Station distance barely matters

Condos 11–15 minutes from a station sell for similar or higher prices than those near one, which usually means buyers here drive or value quiet residential streets.

A mixed market

Condo sales are split between small units (12%) and family-sized homes (36%), so the market serves both investors and owner-occupiers.

Sales are thinning out

Transactions are down about 40% 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 house sales last year were between ¥5.5M and ¥24.8M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A shrinking population

The population fell 8.1% between 2020 and 2025 (−0.5% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025.

Many abandoned homes

18.9% of homes were empty in 2023 (9.8% for the wider area), and 9.3% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. That is a high share of truly abandoned homes (akiya), a sign of weak demand. Cheap houses are easy to find, but resale can be slow.

Moderate earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 46% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (56% for the wider area). Post-1981 buildings are designed for this level of shaking, but check ground conditions and insurance.

Local incomes are below average

Taxpayers here reported an average taxable income of ¥3.4m in 2023 (¥4.4m for the wider area). That is +19% since 2014. Averages are pulled up by a few very high earners, so a typical household earns less than this.

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 +2% in the year to January 2026 and +0% over five years. 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, 40% 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 transaction price by yearCondos now cost more than houses — Since 2022, 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 +29% while house prices moved -54%. 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.A sharp recent rise — The median house price rose 28% between 2023 and 2025. Prices per m² rose 44% too, so this is a genuine like-for-like increase, not just bigger homes selling. With only 50 house sales in 2025, a handful of expensive deals can move the median a lot.

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.
