Kenbiya Incorporated, operator of the real estate investment platforms Kenbiya and LIFULL HOME’S Real Estate Investment, released its November 2025 edition of their Income-Producing Property Market Trends Monthly Report on December 4th.
Kenbiya focuses primarily on income earning properties in residential property spaces. The monthly report analyzes data submitted to Kenbiya for three categories of residential investment properties nationwide - strata-title condos, wood-frame apartment buildings, and RC multifamily whole buildings - tracking gross yields and listing prices as advertised on Kenbiya to present insights into latest market trends.
According to Kenbiya data, average prices in all three property cateogories measured hit 12-year highs.
The prices and yields are averages presented to illustrate trends. Real estate is a hyper-local venture so always consult a licensed realtor for your property specific needs.
