Invesco Global Real Estate Asia Pacific, Inc. (Representative in Japan: Takanori Yamada, Location: Minato-ku, Tokyo), the Japanese branch of the real estate investment division of the Invesco Group (hereinafter "Invesco Real Estate"), a leading independent global investment management firm providing global investment capabilities, announces that it has made an investment in a prime residential portfolio located in Tokyo through a fund managed by Invesco Real Estate.
The target portfolio of this investment consists of newly-built rental apartments across 13 properties in Tokyo, totaling approximately 540 units with a total floor area of about 20,000 square meters. All properties are situated in prime residential areas of Tokyo and have maintained high occupancy rates since completion. They also feature excellent access to major central terminal stations, highly convenient surrounding environments for daily life, and high residential performance and specifications.
Possessing these characteristics, we evaluate this portfolio as an attractive group of residential assets that combines good locations, high occupancy, and high specifications.
Invesco Real Estate positions the Japanese real estate market as an attractive investment opportunity offering both stability and growth potential. Particularly in central Tokyo, continuous and solid expansion of housing demand is expected, mainly driven by younger and working generations who prioritize commuting and lifestyle convenience. On the other hand, there are certain constraints on new supply against the backdrop of rising construction material prices and labor shortages, leading us to believe that the scarcity and room for growth of prime residential assets will continue to remain at a high level.
Tsukuru Kitamura (Deputy Head of Investment Department), who led this acquisition, commented as follows:
"We are very pleased to have executed the bulk acquisition of this portfolio consisting of 13 properties and approximately 540 units with the cooperation of many stakeholders. Through this investment, we have been able to incorporate prime domestic assets in Japan into the fund managed by Invesco Real Estate.
The portfolio we invested in this time consists entirely of relatively new buildings, has good access to major terminal stations in central Tokyo, boasts high property specifications, and is located in areas highly popular among the younger and working generations for their excellent living convenience. We were able to execute an investment in a highly attractive portfolio composed of properties with strong appeal to tenants.
Currently, the population influx into central Tokyo continues, centered around the younger and working generations, and housing demand in central Tokyo is expected to expand continuously and solidly going forward. As the supply of rental apartments is constrained by soaring material prices and labor shortages, we believe the growth potential of residential assets is high.
Invesco Real Estate has been advancing investments in Japan mainly through its managed funds. We are confident that Japan is one of the most attractive investment destinations, possessing a real estate market where both stability and growth potential can be expected.
This investment focuses on the growth potential backed by asset stability. We will continue to actively explore investment opportunities in such stable and growth-oriented assets. Furthermore, leveraging the investment capabilities and asset management expertise we have cultivated over approximately 27 years since the opening of our Japan office, we will also engage in various asset classes in value-add investments that enhance the potential value of real estate."
