Greetings from Representative Director

 At the beginning of 2025, we would like to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support and patronage.

 Over the past year, geopolitical risks remained elevated, including the ongoing situation in Ukraine, the intensifying U.S.-China tensions, and instability in the Middle East—all of which impacted the global economy. Domestically, prolonged inflation, a weakening yen, and rising prices presented challenges for consumers. However, in the latter half of 2024, we began to see signs of economic recovery. In particular, wage increases have shown progress, and we are hopeful that a virtuous economic cycle is gradually taking shape.

 Looking ahead, 2025 is expected to be another year marked by geopolitical uncertainties and shifts in monetary policy both in Japan and abroad. Further policy adjustments by the Bank of Japan and the influence of U.S. economic strategies will be key factors affecting the global market.

 In the real estate sector, we anticipate that changes in interest rates and the financing environment will continue to influence the market, as they did last year. Nevertheless, we remain committed to proactive and flexible business activities—ensuring stable demand while also creating new opportunities. The condominium market in Tokyo, in particular, continues to show strong demand, especially in areas with excellent access to public transportation and high convenience. While the fundamentals of housing demand in urban areas remain robust, rising interest rates and an uncertain economic outlook require a cautious stance regarding future price trends.

 Amidst these changes, our company will continue to monitor market developments closely and invest actively in areas with solid demand to establish a stable revenue base.

 We are dedicated to delivering high-quality services to our clients and driving sustainable growth in our business. We sincerely appreciate your continued guidance and support.

 We wish you all the best for the new year and look forward to working with you again in 2025.
