Sapporo is not only a viable investment target, but depending on the strategy, it's a highly balanced market where you can aim for both stable income and capital gains. However, there are things you need to understand as a prerequisite. That is, it's not that "it's profitable because it's Sapporo."

Sapporo real estate investment with private accommodations is the best solution
■ Real estate investment in Sapporo: An era of considering “combinations” When considering real estate investment in Sapporo, many people first focus on "yield" and "stability." While a certain yield can be secured as it is a regional city, there are many voices concerned about the risks of population decline and vacancy. However, this way of thinking alone is not enough for real estate investment in Sapporo. This is because Sapporo is one of the few cities where both rental demand and accommodation demand are established, and it is a market where the results significantly change by designing "how to capture revenue." Among these, a notable investment strategy is the combination of "Sapporo Minpaku (private lodging)." By securing stable income through rentals, you can add to your revenue with private lodging. By creating this structure, "..."

The importance of communicating directly in easy-to-understand language
Why are “clarity” and "directness" required nowadays? Nowadays, we are in an age where anyone can find out a certain amount of information by looking it up. That is why the difference is not in what you know, but how you communicate it. No matter how good the information you have, if it is not conveyed to others, it has no value. In fact, I feel that there are more cases in which the lack of clarity leads to such negative consequences as delayed decision-making, missed opportunities, and loss of trust. Real estate is a field in which the amount of money is especially large and responsibility for judgment is involved. That is why we believe that "understandability" is not just a part of our service, but a prerequisite. ■Not communicating...

Why Investors Who Want to Buy Cheap Do Not Make Money
Is it an investment or just a purchase? In real estate investment, “buy low” is spoken of as a correct principle. Certainly, price is important. However, there is one thing that I can clearly say after having seen many projects in the Sapporo real estate investment scene. Those whose goal is to buy at a low price are not investing but "shopping. Investing is the act of designing future returns and exits. Shopping, on the other hand, is an act whose purpose is to "feel like you're getting something now. This difference makes a big difference in the outcome five or ten years from now. Sapporo is the largest city in Hokkaido, and rental demand is relatively stable. However, the city is not homogeneous. The area...

Requests and Recommendations
When you are in the business of sales, there is always a "moment when you want to ask for a favor. I want you to buy this property. I want to close this contract. I want you to take care of this project. These feelings arise naturally as you work as a salesperson. The more time I have spent preparing, researching, and assembling proposals for a project, the stronger these feelings become. The more time you have put into preparing, researching, and assembling a proposal, the stronger your desire for the client to proceed with the project. It is not a bad thing to feel this way when you are in the sales position. In fact, I think it is evidence that you are taking your job seriously. However, I believe that "please" is not allowed in sales...

When considering investment in income-producing real estate, the first question many investors face is "Which area should I invest in?

What is kindness?
What does "kindness" mean in the workplace? Generally, these actions are often thought of as "kindness. However, I do not consider these to be true kindness. This is because most of them are not in the best interest of the other person. Instead of doing the case they are working on, tell them how to do it. Instead of teaching them how to do their research and how to think, instead of teaching them in detail. Instead of doing what they tell you to do, think about whether there is a better way. The situation becomes easier. There will be no conflict. You may even be thanked. But it is the other person's "ability to think" or "ability to judge"...

Is greed necessary?
The word "desire" might have a negative connotation for many people. Greedy. Mercenary. Selfish. Such impressions might come to mind first. However, I don't believe desire is inherently bad. In fact, I sometimes feel it's more dangerous in a job to *lack* desire. "I want to grow." "I want to know more." "I want to do better work." All of these are, in other words, desires. In the real estate business, I sometimes hear people say, "I'm not good at talking about money," or "I feel like it's not good to be greedy." I understand how they feel. I used to feel a sense of unease about expressing my desires. However, at some point, my way of thinking changed...
