An office for a new base, where we successfully acquired an S-class property that is typically unavailable for purchase.

We supported Japanet Holdings in acquiring an office for their Fukuoka base, from property information gathering to negotiation and purchase. Aiming to increase assets that would also benefit their core business, we successfully purchased three floors of the "Tenjin Business Center," directly connected to Tenjin Station, which was completed as the first project of the Tenjin Big Bang. We also provide workshops and practical support to their newly established Facility Management Department.

Securing a Fukuoka base essential for business growth and acquiring real estate to strengthen their asset portfolio.

Headquartered Japanet Holdings was considering acquiring real estate in Fukuoka to establish an office that would serve as a core base for talent acquisition and regional revitalization. While exploring both purchasing and new construction, they concluded that in-house development was the optimal approach to achieve their ideal office environment.

Successfully obtained off-market information and purchased the Tenjin Business Center, which was previously a rental property.

Under a business consignment agreement with Japanet Co., we gathered information and conducted sales activities as part of Japanet Holdings. This resulted in successfully compiling information on approximately 40 properties, including unlisted, off-market details, in just two months. Notably, we supported negotiations for an S-rank property that was initially offered for lease, ultimately securing a highly rare transaction: the purchase of three floors of the Tenjin Business Center, which is typically not available for sale.

The acquisition of high-rank real estate enabled talent acquisition and real estate management that contribute to business growth.

We purchased S-rank real estate, which is typically difficult to acquire, generating significant buzz, including the relocation of part of their headquarters from Tokyo to Fukuoka and a press conference with the mayor. Two of the three acquired floors are utilized as their own office, resulting in an employee satisfaction rate of 98.4% (percentage of those who responded "very satisfied" or "satisfied" *1). This has led to increased recruitment of creative and IT talent, as well as a rise in hiring through employee referrals. The remaining floor achieved full occupancy at a rent exceeding expectations. Even after the property acquisition, we continue to support the enhancement of specialized knowledge through regular meetings and workshops for their in-house facility management team. *1) From materials issued by Japanet Holdings Co., Ltd., Office Leasing Department.

Why We Partnered with Profits

As our company grew, our employee count and locations expanded nationwide. This was precisely when we wanted to establish a dedicated department to strategically implement facility management. While it might have been easier to entrust everything to a consulting firm, our company operates under a "self-reliance" business policy. To ensure we handle things with speed and quality, we also wanted to accumulate in-house expertise and develop our own talent. Therefore, we decided to engage Profits, who could offer flexible support.

Benefits of Our Collaboration

To be honest, the real estate industry is highly specialized, and it was often difficult to judge whether the proposals we received were truly reliable. Profits, however, would sometimes disclose information that might not be in our favor and conduct thorough, tough negotiations before presenting their proposals. This allowed us to make decisions with a clear understanding of potential risks. Furthermore, their extensive knowledge in various real estate areas, such as brokerage, building management, and development, made us feel confident that we could consult them for a one-stop solution. We also appreciated that the same contact person handled our projects regardless of the specific task, allowing various matters to be addressed quickly and in parallel.

Our Hopes for the Future

Our company strives for an ideal where we thoroughly dedicate our work hours to creating value, while also making time with family and personal life fulfilling. To achieve this, we are committed to investing in our office environment and employee benefits, aiming to create a workplace that embodies the "Japanet style." Moving forward, we hope to continue embracing new challenges together, without being constrained by conventional methods, and with a sense of excitement.
