Analysis of Tokyo's Used Condominium Market: Q3 2025

Mansion Research Co., Ltd. has released its quarterly report on the Tokyo used condominium market, utilizing data from its extensive database of 143,000 condominiums nationwide. This report focuses on trends observed from July to September 2025, aiming to provide a clearer understanding of the current market dynamics influenced by various external factors.

Background and Purpose of the Report

The Tokyo used condominium market has been characterized by complex changes with fluctuations in price ranges and regional differences, compounded by shifts in interest rates and construction costs. Given the growing demand for objective information to gauge the current state of the market, this report organizes key indicators and underlying factors for better market comprehension. It serves as a valuable resource for a diverse audience interested in the condominium market.

Key Findings from the Report

1. Distinct Differences by Price Range: The high-end segment remains robust, while the mid-range segment faces stagnation.
2. Short Sales Trends in Tokyo: Properties in Tokyo are selling more quickly, contrasting with the prolonged sale periods in surrounding prefectures.
3. External Environment Influences: Changes in the market environment have contributed to a dichotomy in performance across different segments.

Investigating Market Dynamics

The report highlights a pronounced division in the Tokyo used condominium market, particularly since 2024, where high-end properties show strength while mid-range offerings experience stagnation. The key trends observed in the Q3 2025 report include:

• - Properties Priced Between 100 Million and 200 Million Yen: This segment is buoyed by strong demand from high-income individuals such as corporate executives, expatriates, and healthcare professionals. The stability in transaction numbers is notable, largely unaffected by fluctuations in loan interest rates.

• - Properties Priced Between 200 Million and 500 Million Yen: This segment has seen a slowdown in trading due to rising prices in central areas affecting buyer psychology. Potential buyers are now leaning towards comparing new constructions or even shifting towards other regions, leading to a clearer sense of stagnation in the mid-high-end market.

• - Properties Priced Above 500 Million Yen: Transactions remain solid as wealth preservation becomes a priority for affluent buyers. These transactions emphasize rarity and asset value, with a steady trend maintaining interest despite market risks.

• - Comparison with the Greater Tokyo Area: While Tokyo has seen shorter sales durations and decreased price cuts, the surrounding prefectures of Saitama, Chiba, and Kanagawa are experiencing longer sales periods. Sellers in these regions, rather than opting for hasty price reductions, are more inclined to wait for market recovery.
