Investment
At the time of writing this, the outbreak of coronavirus casts a shadow over the inbound tourism and economy in Japan. Some may question whether the Japan Real Estate Market can be resilient.
Our partners who have invested in Japan shared their views saying although the outbreak may disrupt the market for short-term, Japan especially Tokyo has a long term growth due to the unchanged market fundamentals such as its population growth, ample liquidity thanks to the better borrowing terms for Tokyo assets and limited supply in the central locations. The infrastructure the government has invested and upcoming large-scale redevelopment projects will further support this cosmopolitan city as a leading hub in Asia Pacific.
This issue, we offer different ranges of investment proposals in Tokyo – relatively hassle-free income-generating en bloc as your additional source of income while lucrative assets may be more suitable for those seeking for assets with long-term appreciation and growth.
