The latest published Japan CPI housing index for Q2 2026 reached 104.7, slightly up from 104.6 in the previous quarter, reflecting that the long-rigid housing costs are loosening. As the effects of Japan's wage hikes gradually transmit to the service and rental markets, coupled with rising construction and repair costs, institutions expect this data to possess the momentum for a continued gradual rise in the future.
