Tokyo Sky Tree has become the tallest tower in Japan since yesterday

Dear Investors:

 

Tokyo Sky Tree is now the tallest tower in Japan.  The to-be-634-meter tower  is still under construction and is going to complete in 2012.  But it has passed the old Tokyo Tower which is 333 meters high yesterday while reaching to 338 meters.

 

 

A new commercial zone will propbably be created in the area surrounded by Asakusa, Kinshicho, Kameido, and Oshiage where Tokyo Sky Tree will be.  In fact, many people and companies are seriously looking for real estate in the region for a view of the tower. 

 

 

Please let us know, if you are interested in the area.  We will introduce you interesting investment properties in the region.

 

 

Best regards,

Tokyo Sky Tree

Dear international investors,

 

Tokyo Sky Tree is under construction.   It is scheduled to complete in 2011.   As of today, it is 126-meter tall.

The about-610-meter-tall (!) TV tower is in Oshiage of Sumida-ku which is east of famous Asakusa.   Looking from Asakusa, Oshiage is over Sumida River.  Oshiage is within a walking distance of popular commercial districts, such as, Asakusa, Riyogoku, and Kinshicho.  Althoug it has good access to those popular sites, it is not so known among people.   On the contrary, it looks underdeveloped.   Very little development has occured on Oshiage for at least the last 30 years.

Oshiage consists mostly of low-rise apartment buildings and of old detached houses.   There is a local shopping street, but much of the town looks so inactive.   According to a local ramen maestro who has been keeping a small ramen shop for the last 33 years, Oshiage was far more populas than now with then-flourishing textile and printing businesses which have recently drained into Asian countries.    Also, I have learned from the ramen maestro that Japan’s first ready-mixed concrete plant was where Tokyo Sky Tree is about 100 years ago and that it provided ready-mixed concrete to Tokyo and helped Tokyo become westernized then.

The store manager has been so helpful in teaching me history of Oshiage.   To my shame, I did know little about Oshiage.  Although his language is harsh, I have learned a lot about Oshiage from him.   By the way, language harshness is typical of people in downtown of Tokyo.
local ramen shop in Oshiage - thank you for teaching me history of Oshiage!

Many people are trying to estimate Tokyo Sky Tree’s impact not only on Oshishige but also on the entire region.   It may create huge foot traffic in the region, but it may not.  It may bring new industries into the region, but it may not.   It may trigger international investors’ move into Japanese real estate market, but it may not.   However, I can say for sure that it is and will be worthwhile to keep an eye on the massive development.
I will welcome any feedback from you on the development.

attractive investment property in Sumida-ku & Tokyo Sky Tree

Dear International investors,

 

I went to survey an investment property in Oshiage of Sumida-ku. 

 

Its main features are as follows.

 

Type: Apartment Building (total number of units is 14)

Price: 160,000,000 yen

Location: Oshiage, Sumida-ku

Station: 3-min walk to Oshiage station (Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line)

Land: 138.78 sq. meters

Floor area: 382.28 sq. meters

Structure: RC

Current operation rate: 94.9%

Current annual return: approx. 13,416,000 yen

Current yield: 8.39%

Built in: 1987

Coverage: 80%

FAR: 300%

This northeast-of-Tokyo neighborhood is well connected to other areas by Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line (e.g. 21 mins to Hanzomon station) and is within a walking distance of Asakusa, Riyogoku, and Kinshicho.

 

 

The apartment building itself may be nothing more than an attractive investment opportunity with a good yield.  But the value of the whole neighborhood may change drastically in near future due to Tokyo Sky Tree (about 610 meters tall).

 

Tokyo Sky Tree is under construction on the other side of Oshiage station and is going to complete in 2011.  Currently, the neighborhood consists mostly of low-rise apartment buildings and some old detached houses.  But it is posting good potentiality because of its proximity to the tower and commercial zones, such as, Asakusa and Kinshicho.

 

Please let me know, if you are interested in this property.
