Starting point: privately rented detached houses of 150 m² and over in Miyagi average ¥71,262 a month across 1,800 dwellings. That is an area average, not a valuation of this house. What this one achieves depends on its condition and on local demand, which is thin in most akiya towns. The survey does not break Zao Town out separately, so this covers the whole prefecture including its cities and will run high for a rural address. Treat it as a ceiling, not a forecast.
