Why real-estate with us
Local market expertise in Japan
Our Tokyo-based team has deep access to residential, commercial, and hospitality property opportunities across Japan. We help clients navigate real-estate acquisition, legal frameworks, market conditions, taxation, and local regulations—ensuring you enter investments with clarity and confidence.
Global diversification
Beyond Japan, we evaluate select international real-estate markets to identify assets that align with your goals, whether high-yield rental properties, development projects, or strategic capital-growth areas. Diversifying globally helps you mitigate currency and regional risks while capitalizing on emerging opportunities.
Customized investment strategy
We begin with your financial objectives, risk profile, and liquidity preferences. From turnkey properties to joint ventures and development projects, we tailor investment paths—balancing stability, upside potential, and your broader wealth plan.
Seamless integration with wealth services
Real-estate investment is integrated into our holistic wealth management and planning framework. We coordinate with our asset management, financial planning, and private market investment teams to align your property holdings with retirement strategies, tax planning, and inter-generational objectives.
Types of real-estate investments
We support clients across a range of property types, enabling diversification both within Japan and internationally:
- Residential — Condominium units, multi-family buildings, and single-family homes positioned for rental income or long-term appreciation.
- Commercial — Office spaces, logistics facilities, and retail properties offering stable income streams backed by long-term leases.
- Hospitality & tourism — Hotels, serviced apartments, and resort-oriented assets in markets benefiting from strong travel demand.
- Development & redevelopment projects — Ground-up developments or value-add opportunities for investors seeking higher return potential and involvement in project growth.
- Alternative real-estate — Student housing, senior living communities, and niche sectors that provide differentiated risk-return profiles.
Each category is carefully evaluated to ensure it aligns with your financial objectives, investment horizon, and desired level of involvement.
