TOKYO -- Listings to resell condominiums within a year of construction in Tokyo and Osaka have more than tripled in the past decade as investors, including in China and elsewhere abroad, look to profit from surging prices, a Nikkei analysis finds.
A total of 1,548 such units went on sale in the first 10 months of 2024, 3.7 times as many as in the same period of 2014, shows data from Tokyo-based property database operator One of a kind. The full-year total is expected to have more than tripled as well.
