ABOUT US
Our mission is to highlight the allure of residing in and engaging in commerce with Japan to an international audience.
In today’s rapidly changing society, values are becoming increasingly diverse. It’s an era where yesterday’s common sense could easily become today’s outdated notion.
There’s a growing interest from people around the world who want to live or start a business in Japan, but there aren’t many companies that connect these people with real estate properties here. It is important that not only large enterprises or the government but also private businesses that satisfy various needs of every customer interact with people and business abroad, and have a key role to play in helping more people abroad discover Japan.
Add Value Co., Ltd. aspires to serve as a bridge between Japan and the world, contributing to the success of our clients through meaningful work.
ADVANTAGE
Extensive Track Record with Clients from Over 30 Countries
We have over 10 years of experience assisting clients from overseas who are considering real estate investments or second homes in Japan. Real estate transactions from overseas often face many hurdles, such as language and cultural differences. We utilize our extensive knowledge and experience to address these challenges, preventing problems that often arise with typical Japanese real estate companies. Additionally, we have a proven track record of brokering real estate transactions throughout Japan. Through our flexible approach to diverse needs and our provision of locally-informed services, we continue to provide reliable and professional services in real estate brokerage for overseas customers in Japan.
Experts in Older Properties
We actively offer brokerage and renovation support for older properties in Tokyo and regional areas to overseas customers. Many of our overseas customers are interested in increasing the value of properties through their own efforts, and often desire unique investment properties or second homes that are not typically favored by Japanese people. With our unique expertise and extensive experience in meeting such diverse needs, we specialize in revitalization proposals that maximize property value while minimizing investment costs. We provide optimal proposals tailored to the specific circumstances and requests of our customers.
Managing and Operating Compact Share Houses in Tokyo, Aiming for International Coexistence
We operate small share houses in Nakanosakaue, Higashi-Ginza, Narimasu, Kinshicho, and Nakaochiai in Tokyo, where people from diverse cultural backgrounds live together. Many of our residents are from foreign countries around the world. This initiative provides affordable and comfortable living environments for foreign residents, while also revitalizing properties that cannot be sold due to inheritance or old houses that require significant repair costs. Through our share house business, we aim to promote international coexistence and create communities with an international perspective.
Track Record in Furnished Rentals and Support for Owners
We handle over 600 furnished rental properties, primarily in the 23 wards of Tokyo, and serve many foreign individuals and corporate clients. In the market since the Lehman Shock, there has been a tendency to focus on furnished rentals as a vacancy countermeasure for single-occupancy rentals. We go beyond simply providing furniture and appliances. We also consider reducing the burden on owners' one-room investments, and actively work on long-term vacancy countermeasures and improving profitability. We continue to offer proposals to enhance the appeal of properties and support to achieve sustainable profits, based on our extensive experience.
Finding Rental Properties in Tokyo for Foreigners
We collaborate with many business partners, including foreign personnel, foreign-affiliated companies, and administrative scriveners specializing in visas, to find rental properties for foreign customers. There are still many obstacles to foreign residents moving in, but we overcome these challenges to provide smooth housing solutions. Our services are highly regarded by many foreign customers, and the number of repeat customers continues to grow. Additionally, by acting as an intermediary, we have gained the trust of property owners and real estate management companies.
