The price in context

The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 32,800 yen per sqm.

The asking price works out at about 14,002 yen per sqm of land, 26% below the nearest residential benchmark of about 18,900 yen per sqm. The benchmark is for bare land; akiya prices usually bundle a worn building, so a large gap is normal and does not by itself mean a bargain.

Official records

Area and hazard data

3 checks clear, 4 to know about. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.

Hazards and ground
Strong-earthquake chance
Checked, clear
About 3% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, low for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%

Source: National earthquake-hazard model

Landslide risk
Caution
In a yellow (caution) landslide zone (1 zone(s)). Expect a surveyor to look at the slope behind the house. Zone edges are approximate, and this is not a legal property disclosure document.

Source: Government hazard map

Flood risk
Checked, clear
Checked: outside a mapped flood area. The maps cover designated rivers only, so this is not a promise of no flooding.

Tsunami risk
Checked, clear
Checked: no designated tsunami inundation zone at this location

Liquefaction
Note
Moderate liquefaction susceptibility. Ask for a ground report before major work.

Snow
Note
In a designated heavy-snow zone. Expect real winter heating and roof-clearing costs.

Source: Government heavy-snow designation
