Investment
Brexit, the US-China trade war, and the political crisis in Hong Kong all drive the global investment funds diving into the Japanese real estate market. The influx of deep-pocketed foreign players, supported by the Bank of Japan’s ultra-low borrowing cost that offers attractive returns, indicates that the property boom in Japan especially Tokyo is unlikely to lose steam anytime soon.
However, heavy taxation can kill any investment without proper planning. Thus, creative investment plans and structures are on the forefront regardless of the size of investment. Please join our Japan Investor Club. Let us, as a Japanese origin real estate advisory firm guide you through the relatively complicated process of building a winning portfolio. Language barrier, cultural difference and closed market information will no longer be the hurdles when you invest in Japan market with us.
