How to read these numbers
“Nearest station” is the station MLIT records for each sale; the walking time is not published per sale in this table, so a flat 2 minutes from the gate and one 15 minutes away are pooled. Building age, floor and view are not in the median, and in central Tokyo a new tower and a 1980s walk-up can sit on the same street at twice the price per ㎡. To see how age alone moves the price, read why Japanese apartments lose value with age; to price a specific flat, try the sale price estimator.
Buying costs (brokerage, acquisition tax, registration) are about 6% on top of the price: cost of buying property in Japan. Running costs for a non-resident owner: property tax for foreigners. Gross rental yield by ward: Japan rental yield.
