Property prices in Tokyo, Japan surpass their highs in the 30-year bubble era

According to the Institute of Real Estate Economics of Japan, the price of newly built apartments in the capital Tokyo in 2020 will rise by 1.7% to 60.84 million yen (about 4.54 million Hong Kong dollars), which is the highest since the record of 61.23 million yen in 1990, which was recorded in more than 30 years.

The increase in construction costs due to preparations for the Tokyo Olympics and the conversion of residential buildings in the Linhai Industrial Zone have driven up local property prices.

According to the agency's data, the most expensive apartment unit is located in Daikanyama and is worth 690 million yen (about 52 million Hong Kong dollars).
