Business Overview

This business rehabilitates underperforming and unoccupied buildings into highly profitable assets.
In urban areas, there exist a large number of older commercial buildings whose owners feel compelled to sell for reasons such as declining earnings resulting from changing markets or needs, the desire to repay debt or the wish to divest their headquarters building. Sun Frontier Fudousan purchases such low return or unprofitable commercial properties, then prepares a revitalization plan to improve market value, including conversion (alteration of use), while considering factors such as the market, property location and customer needs. We then carry out renovation work compatible with today's market, ranging from the interior and exterior design to upgrades of electrical, air-conditioning and other systems and enhancements to telecommunications equipment to support OA and broadband. We then develop the project by securing tenants, returning the building to strong profitability, and finally selling the property to the building owner or investors at an appropriate price.

Customer advantages

Through replanning, Sun Frontier Fudousan provides customers with highly profitable assets, and offers total support even after the purchase.
By creating safe, superior investment properties intended to generate a stream of real estate rental income, replanning also contributes to establishing the optimal portfolio for building owners and investors.
Moreover, each specialized section of Sun Frontier Fudousan promises to provide total management and asset management support throughout the life cycle of the building, even after revitalized properties have been sold.

Characteristics

• Develops an environmentally-friendly business (effective use of existing resources, rather than extension of Japan's traditional scrap and build model).
• Contributes to local economic reactivation by reinvigorating properties that are aged and obsolete or suffering from low occupancy.
• Mobilizes the know-how and management resources of each group of Sun Frontier Fudousan experts in leasing, brokerage, construction and property management.
• Builds strong relationships with building owners and tenants, as well as financial institutions, legal experts, construction firms and other parties in the vicinity of the renovated properties.
