No. Urbalytics is a tool designed for visualizing and organizing information. It does not provide specific investment decisions or financial advice.

The platform collects property sale listings, price changes, rental listings and historical sale records, and organizes and analyzes them alongside property conditions. Records from different sources may have missing information, update delays or differing definitions. Read them with their dates, property conditions and on-page data notes.

Coverage focuses on Greater Tokyo: Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama and Chiba. Property types include condominium units, income buildings, detached houses and land. Historical coverage can differ by feature, area and data type. Check the available records and the relevant report notes.

Property records, analysis results and public market reports are updated separately. A new property record may not immediately appear in every statistics page. Check the record date for an individual property and the data month or quarter for a market report. Historical coverage varies by area and data type; use the period available in the records or report.

An asking price is the price a seller advertises. A closed-sale price is the price agreed for the completed transaction; the two may differ. Do not treat a historical asking price as an actual closed-sale price. Before comparing properties or citing data, check whether the price comes from a listing or a closed-sale record.

成約 means that a record has been marked as closed. Transaction status and the nature of a price are separate: a property marked as closed does not make its historical asking price the final sale price. Check the data source, record date and price description when interpreting these records.

Price history shows changes the platform has obtained and recorded. It does not establish that every revision since the property first entered the market has been captured. The first observation is not necessarily the first listing date. Unrecorded changes may occur between observations, so read the history as recorded prices rather than a complete transaction timeline.

Valuations use property conditions and available nearby comparables. Different property types may use different approaches, including price per unit of area, yields, or indicators related to land and building value. The result is a reference estimate. Sunlight, interior condition, maintenance and other factors not fully captured in the data can affect the actual price. Read the estimate alongside specific comparables and a site inspection.

Market reports organize records by area, station or condominium brand. Compare the same property type and check the period, unit and sample count. Prices and asking rents reflect the quotes in the corresponding records. Gross yield is the recorded annual income divided by the asking price, without deductions for operating, maintenance or financing costs. Different indicators may use medians, means or weighted calculations. The indicator notes in each report explain the applicable method.

With few observations, adding or removing one record can noticeably change the statistics. Read the sample count, period and property type together rather than drawing a market-wide conclusion from a single month. P20–P80 in some charts describes the distribution of the sample. It is neither a forecast of future prices nor a confidence interval for a valuation. Check the report notes for data gaps and reference-value markers.
