Detached houses appear across the ward on small plots, so rebuilding rights and road width matter as much as the building. ## How AkiyaHub helps here Our Tokyo team checks rebuilding rights on narrow Meguro plots and compares building age and fees across the Toyoko line stations. AkiyaHub is an advisory, education, research, and transaction-support platform. We coordinate licensed Japanese professionals, and we do not act as a real estate brokerage.

Japan does not require citizenship or residency to own real estate. Ownership does not give you a visa, and financing, tax, and document needs depend on your situation. ### Why do Meguro houses sit on such small plots? Land is expensive and many plots were divided over decades. Check the legal road width, the setback rules, and the permitted floor area before you price a rebuild. ### Is Nakameguro much more expensive than the rest of Meguro? Yes. Riverside and Ebisu-side units carry a premium for resale demand. Jiyugaoka, Toritsu-Daigaku, and Komaba offer similar commutes at lower prices per square meter. ### What types of homes are for sale in Meguro? Meguro listings can include city condos or apartments, detached houses, family homes, and older properties. The mix changes by area, station access, building age, condition, and asking price. ## Nearby city guides - [Shibuya real estate guide](./shibuya.md): A denser premium apartment market next door - [Setagaya real estate guide](./setagaya.md): A larger ward with more detached houses - [Minato real estate guide](./minato.md): The international core with the highest prices - [Ota real estate guide](./ota.md): A ward with Haneda access and lower prices ## Important limitations - AkiyaHub is not a real estate brokerage, property seller, renovation company, or legal, tax, financial, accounting, or immigration adviser. - We coordinate with appropriately licensed local professionals when regulated work is required. - "Akiya" means "vacant house."
