What the data says

Prices are still rising, but more slowly

Growth has cooled to about 0.7% a year, down from 2.3% a year in the previous five years. This looks more like a maturing market than a turning point, and it gives buyers a bit more room to negotiate.

Outperforming Nagasaki

Per m², houses here are 61% above the Nagasaki average. The premium has grown from 32% ten years ago, so Omura City has been outperforming its surroundings.

Being near a station is worth a lot

Houses within a 5-minute walk of a station sell for about 25% more per m² than those 11–15 minutes away. If budget is tight, a longer walk is the quickest way to cut the price.

Sales are thinning out

Transactions are down about 10% 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 ¥13.0M and ¥33.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A growing population

The population grew 2.2% between 2020 and 2025 (−6.1% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025.

Typical vacancy

10% of homes were empty in 2023 (17.3% for the wider area), and 4.9% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. The level of abandoned homes is around the national norm.

Lower earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 7% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (6% for the wider area). This is low by Japanese standards, although no part of Japan is free of earthquake risk.

Local incomes are close to average

Taxpayers here reported an average taxable income of ¥3.4m in 2023 (¥3.2m for the wider area). That is +21% since 2014. Averages are pulled up by a few very high earners, so a typical household earns less than this.

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 +4% in the year to January 2026 and +13% over five years. Because these sites don't change, this is the cleanest measure of land value trends.

Some flood or landslide exposure

Of the official land-price benchmark sites here, which sit in typical neighbourhoods, 13% are inside the worst-case flood 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.

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.
