LAND prices in Tokyo's central Chuo ward, home to the famous Ginza shopping district, have jumped by 51 per cent in four years. In Osaka, they are up by nearly half.
Booming construction of hotels, office buildings, shopping centres and apartments, financed by record lending for real estate by Japanese banks, has driven the gains. Now, some investors surveying Japan's property market are anticipating price corrections.
