- While houses in Asian countries have attracted international attention for the active new housing construction and rapid demolition of existing houses, empirical evidence on the structure depreciation curve is scarce. Employing a unique dataset of nationwide housing transaction prices collected by the Japanese government, which is decomposed into structure and land values by market participants, this paper formally estimates the structure depreciation curve of Japanese detached houses. First, structure value is lost by as much as 50% during the initial 10 years following construction, and the depreciation gradually continues until the property is around 30 years old. This implies that “taste for newness” at an early stage of building life (or depreciation between new houses and relatively new resale houses) is significant, and structure value is lost much faster than measured by demolition during the latter stage of building life. Second, while this trend is robust across regions and over time, the depreciation from new houses to relatively new resale houses is becoming smaller in recent years, and it is smaller in urban areas than in rural areas. This implies a recent potential for utilizing existing housing stocks, especially in urban areas in a matured society, to which other developed Asian countries or developing countries may proceed in the future.
