Real estate investment in Japan
According to the results of the 2018 Housing and Land Statistics Survey, the number of vacant houses in Japan was 8.489 million, an increase of 3.6%, and the vacant house rate was 13.6%, the highest ever.
According to the 2013 Basic Land Survey, the area of vacant lots owned by households nationwide has increased 1.4 times in the last 10 years (2003: 681㎢ → 2013: 981㎢). .. Further vacant lots are expected to increase in the future. Looking at the changes in the supply of residential land nationwide, the supply of residential land in FY2018 was 5,967ha (up 6.3% from FY2016), of which the public supply was 407ha (down 40% from FY2016). , Private supply is 5,560ha (up 13% from 2016), and has been around 6,000ha in recent years.
Japan's population began to decline after peaking in 2008, and today we are entering a full-scale depopulation society. During the bubble period, comprehensive land measures were developed, including the enactment of the Basic Land Law and the suppression of speculative land transactions, with a focus on land price measures against the backdrop of soaring land prices. However, during the period of population decline, land as a whole was developed. Amid declining usage needs, land use is encouraged through incentives, etc., while promoting planned town development and community development for economic growth, regional revitalization, formation of a safe and sustainable society, etc. It is important to promote optimal use according to land conditions by inducing, promoting investment, and facilitating transactions.
According to the "Web Questionnaire Survey of Unused Land Owners," the intentions of owners of "unused land" regarding the sale or abandonment of their land are "because they are likely to sell." Approximately half (49.8%) of the owners are willing to sell the land, including "I'm going to sell it" (24.8%) and "I don't expect to sell it, but I want to let it go if I can." (25.0%).
Machiya, a traditional house in Kyoto, is also being demolished every year, although various subsidies are provided by the city government.
