I'm Universe Appoints Eiji Enomoto as Special Advisor

I'm Universe Co., Ltd. (Location: Suginami-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Masaki Aikawa), which sells detached houses with rooftops mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area and Okinawa, announces that Eiji Enomoto, formerly of Nomura Real Estate, has been appointed as a Special Advisor as of April 1, 2026. In the current housing market, the value required of homes is changing significantly, encompassing not only 'performance for living' but also 'future asset value,' 'evaluation during resale,' and 'preparedness for disaster risks.' Based on long-term high-quality housing, we have provided 'resilience housing' equipped with disaster countermeasures such as earthquakes, floods, and power outages, and have developed housing models combined with resale price guarantees to address concerns about future asset value. To maintain housing value over the long term, multifaceted perspectives such as real estate distribution, market analysis, and data utilization are important, in addition to housing performance. By welcoming Mr. Enomoto, who has extensive knowledge and achievements in a wide range of fields beyond real estate, we will further promote initiatives for business expansion and improvement of housing asset value, and strengthen our management and business foundation. Profile of Eiji Enomoto: Joined Nomura Real Estate in 1985, Executive Officer in 2008, Representative Director and Executive Vice President of Nomura Real Estate Investment Management in 2011, Managing Executive Officer in 2013, Director and Senior Managing Executive Officer of Nomura Real Estate Urban Net in 2015, Representative Director and Executive Vice President in 2017, Representative Director and Executive Vice President of Nomura Real Estate Solutions in 2021, Executive Officer in charge of DX Promotion at Nomura Real Estate Holdings in 2024, Representative Director of Leap Management Consulting in 2024, and appointed Special Advisor to I'm Universe in 2026. About the resort residence '&RESORT HOUSE' proposed by I'm Universe: The resort residence brand '&RESORT HOUSE' has developed the '&RESORT HOUSE' series of detached houses in the Tokyo metropolitan area and Okinawa, based on the concept of transforming a home where one spends a busy daily life of work, child-rearing, and housework into a place for 'resort time,' the ultimate time in a resort area. Considering our mission to be 'providing housing that protects family smiles and assets,' we have continued to introduce vibration control systems since the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, and have achieved standard installation in all buildings since 2016. As an initiative to connect the value of disaster-resistant housing to future asset formation, we are also working on providing resilience housing combined with resale price guarantees, visualizing housing value from both performance and asset perspectives. In September 2025, we partnered with the global automaker Hyundai Mobility Japan Co., Ltd. to challenge innovative initiatives such as package sales that add electric vehicles to homes equipped with solar power generation and storage batteries as standard.
