Wise Holdings Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takahiro Izumi; hereinafter "the Company") has commenced a collaboration with Associated Real Estate Advisors LLC (Headquarters: State of Hawaii, USA), a real estate brokerage firm based in Honolulu, Hawaii, for the purpose of strengthening research and sales of Hawaiian real estate.
Background and Objectives
In recent years, interest in overseas real estate investment has been growing from the perspective of asset diversification and managing exchange rate fluctuation risks. In particular, against the backdrop of the depreciating yen, attention toward foreign currency-denominated assets has been rising further.
On the other hand, regarding overseas real estate, barriers to considering investment still exist, such as understanding local market conditions, information reliability, and purchasing procedure hurdles.
To address these challenges, the Company will collaborate with Associated Real Estate Advisors LLC, which has a track record and a strong network in Hawaii, to strengthen its research system for the Hawaiian real estate market and to expand its sales functions.
Furthermore, Associated Real Estate Advisors LLC is well-versed in the real estate market of the Ala Moana area, which is highly familiar to Japanese investors. The Company determined that they are the ideal partner due to their abundant knowledge and achievements in the area.
About Muse Honolulu
Through this collaboration, the Company will introduce high-rise residences such as "Muse Honolulu" as selected premium real estate projects in the Honolulu Ala Moana area.
"Muse Honolulu" is a mixed-use high-rise residence consisting of 315 units in total, with completion scheduled for 2029. Designed by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson (BCJ), it offers a wide range of plans from studios to three-bedroom residences, as well as townhomes and urban lofts.
In addition to its sophisticated design, the project features high-quality common spaces such as a pool, spa, private dining, fitness facilities, and a sky lounge, combining urban convenience, a resort feel, and a luxury residential experience.
It also offers excellent access to Ala Moana Center and surrounding beaches, making it an attractive residential base in the heart of Honolulu.
Future Development
Through this collaboration, the Company will be able to grasp the latest information on the Hawaiian real estate market quickly and accurately, enabling the provision of higher-quality information to investors in Japan.
First, the Company will proceed with information dissemination and introductions of the "Muse Honolulu" project within Japan.
Moving forward, through cooperation with Associated Real Estate Advisors LLC, the Company intends to gradually expand investment opportunities from Japan into premium real estate projects in Hawaii, leading to a wider range of options for investors.
Furthermore, with a view to eventually offering US real estate in a format that is easier for a broader range of investors to consider, the Company will examine the possibility of new offering methods over the medium to long term, including fractionalized real estate using real estate crowdfunding.
The Company will continue to strive to provide attractive investment opportunities both domestically and internationally, focusing on providing asset formation opportunities through real estate.
