I watched a video on this and while it does vary widely by prefecture one of the big reasons is their waste management/recycling rules.

Often, to demolish a house, theres usually a flat fee and its just bulldozed, put into a truck and dumped. To renovate, you have to dispose of every type of waste according to the class of that waste. Which is labour intensive and time consuming.
