Real Estate Transaction-price Information System |
| |
- The real estate transaction-price information is publicized by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to promote the reliability and transparency of the real estate market and facilitate and activate the real estate transactions. To this end, MLIT conducts a questionnaire survey of persons involved in real estate transactions and publicizes the results after processing them to make them unidentifiable.
- MLIT compiles the data every three months and publicizes them quarterly. It is planned to publicize the data for the 4th quarter(From October to December) 2022 in April 2023.

- Click here to show descriptions of Land General Information API.
<Notes>
- The real estate transaction-price information is based on the results of a questionnaire survey of persons involved in real estate transactions. For figures, no numerical adjustments have been made except rounding. When viewing and using the data, care must be taken as real estate transaction prices are subject to change not only to individual factors, such as the area, shape, and the conditions of frontage road of each property, but also to transactional factors that may lead to different prices for the same land.
- The number of transaction price samples in each quarter may change in the future. Please note that the number of samples in the last quarter, in particular, may significantly change in the next quarter or later.
- The questionnaire survey on real estate transactions is conducted based on the registration data on the transfer of ownership of land and condominiums. The following transactions, however, are not included in the survey:
<Land>
Transactions in areas other than the survey target areas and the transactions for land whose area is less than the designated survey target area (30 ㎡ or 60 ㎡ for residential land; 100 ㎡ for forest land, agricultural land, and other).
Transactions where part of the ownership is transferred and registered: Transactions for co-owned private road sites and transactions for condominium sites, etc. whose registration for the preservation of ownership was made before 1983 (when the Act on Unit Ownership, etc., of Building was revised).
Transactions involving a set of different land categories (except “residential land + other” and “rice field + field”)
Transactions conducted more than one year ago ,etc.
<Condominiums>
Transactions in areas other than the survey target areas (cities other than three major metropolitan areas * with a population of less than 100,000, etc.) and transactions for land whose area is less than the designated survey target area (10 ㎡).
Package transactions for more than one condominium unit
Transactions for condominium units where the right of site is not ownership (lease, etc.)
Transactions for condominium units whose registration for the preservation of ownership was made before 1983 (when the Act on Unit Ownership, etc., of Building was revised) (condominium units where the right of site was not registered)
Transactions where part of the ownership is transferred and registered, such as resort club membership transactions
Transactions that were conducted more than one year ago, etc.
- * Three major metropolitan areas
- Tokyo area (Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, Chiba, Ibaraki), Nagoya area (Aichi, Mie), and Osaka area (Osaka, Hyogo, Kyoto, Nara)

Number of Transactions |
| |
The number of transactions is obtained by converting the registration data related to real estate transactions into transaction units and then compiling them by region and by quarterly (three months) at MLIT.
The number of transactions will not be displayed when searched via “Search by Line and Station.”
<Notes>
- The number of land transactions is the total number of transactions for all types of land, including residential land (land only), residential land (land and building), agricultural land, and forest land.
The information is compiled by MLIT, which first converts the registration data of ownership transfers arising from transactions into transaction units and then compiles them by region and by transaction period (every three months).
The number of transactions for condominiums, etc. is the number of transactions for condominium units. The information is compiled by MLIT, which first converts the registration data on the transfer of ownership arising from transactions or the registration data for the preservation of ownership into transaction units and then compiles them by region and by transaction period (every three months). While the questionnaire survey targets only those cases involving the transfer of ownership (pre-owned condominiums, etc.), the number of condominium transactions includes cases that involve the registration of the preservation of ownership (transactions for newly built condominiums, etc).
The search results obtained via “search for ALL conditions” show the total number of transactions including land transactions and condominium transactions, etc..
- For a transaction unit, the number of land transactions generally corresponds to the number of registration applications. However, in cases where the same registration application includes properties whose location names (oaza and chome) are different, they are counted separately. The transaction unit for the number of condominium transactions, etc. is a condominium unit (apartment). In cases of package transactions involving more than one unit (apartment), each unit is counted.
- The transaction period refers to the date of the sales contract, which is obtained via a survey of persons involved in the transaction. In cases where the date of the sales contract is unknown, the date of registration of the cause is adopted. The minimum data collection period is one quarter (three months). If you select the search period “OO quarter (including the past one year),” it will show the data for four quarters (one year) including the latest quarter. If you select the search period “OO quarter (including the past two years), it will show the data for eight quarters (two years) including the latest quarter.
- For data up to March 2007, the data only for the target areas of the real estate questionnaire survey will be displayed, and the data for areas other than the target areas are not displayed (“-”). Moreover, if prefectural data include city,town,ward,villages outside the target areas of the survey, the data for these city,town,ward,villages are not displayed (“-”).
The data up to March 2008 do not include the data of some regions where legal affairs bureaus have not yet been computerized. Therefore, in such regions, the number of transactions displayed may be less than the actual number of transactions.
- The transactions for real estate whose areas are less than the target areas for the real estate transaction questionnaire survey and the transactions where only part of the ownership is transferred, etc. are counted in the number of transactions.
- When there is a municipal merger, the subsequent data of merged city,town,ward,villages are incorporated into the data of a newly formed city,town,ward,villages.
- The compilation of these data does not constitute a statistical survey.
