Nagano Prefecture¶
Resorts such as Karuizawa and Hakuba, the cities of Nagano and Matsumoto, and mountain villages. Second-home and migration demand is rising at the same time as vacant homes.
Current phase¶
Overheating / still rising (simplified) (adjustment pressure 8 / 100, confidence low, as of 2026-Q1)
There are no monthly market statistics for this area, so this is a simplified call based on MLIT's quarterly closing data (year-on-year change in price per m² and in counts, and consecutive quarters of decline). For prefectures it also uses the gap between official land prices and land transaction prices in the same districts, and the year-on-year change in resident population. The data lag about three months.
What to watch: Regional differences in house and land prices; inheritance-related registrations.
