Tokyo · Single-Asset Buyer Mandates

You own the unit.
We run the process.

Miyako Thal sources tenanted micro-apartments in Tokyo's rail-connected wards and manages the full acquisition for European private investors selection, due diligence, closing and ongoing oversight. Title stays in your name. Our fee is due only on completion.

The Process

Four stops. One clear line.

A mandate runs like a rail line a fixed route, no detours. Each stop has a defined deliverable before the next one begins.

M-01

Sourcing

Tenanted 1R/1K units, 15–30 m², within 10 minutes' walk of a station, from vetted local brokers.

M-02

Due diligence

Building management records, repair-fund health, tenancy status and yield verification against a fixed checklist.

M-03

Closing

Contract coordination, translation and remote completion support. The title is registered in your name.

M-04

Oversight

Local property management in place, monthly reporting in English, one point of contact: us.

No fund. No pooling. No blind risk.

This is not an investment vehicle. It is a buy-side service: you acquire a specific, named asset directly, and we are paid for delivering the transaction not for holding your capital.

Direct ownership

The unit is registered to you or your own holding structure. No commingled capital, no intermediary vehicle between you and the asset.

Success-based economics

Our acquisition fee is payable only at completion. If the transaction does not close, the mandate costs you nothing beyond the initial search retainer which is credited against the fee at closing.

Transparent, single-asset scope

Every mandate covers one named unit with its purchase price, current rent and net yield stated up front. You decide on a real asset, not a projection.

Fee schedule
Typical ticket¥10–20M
Acquisition fee (at closing)4%
Search retainer (credited)¥50,000
Ongoing oversight6% of rent
Japanese transaction costs (broker, registration, taxes) are payable by the buyer as in any direct purchase and are itemised in every teaser.
Why Tokyo, Why Micro

A rental market built on structure, not sentiment.

Tokyo's micro-apartment segment is carried by durable fundamentals: a majority-renter population, continued inward migration and constrained new supply near rail hubs.

4–5.5%indicative net yield range for tenanted micro-units in our target wards
<10 minmaximum walk to a station for every unit we shortlist

Figures are indicative, based on publicly available market data and our own underwriting at the time of writing. Every teaser states asset-specific numbers with sources. Past performance and market conditions are no guarantee of future results.
