AtoJ Inc. to Exhibit at "BREX 2026," a Comprehensive Exhibition for Housing, Architecture, and Real Estate: Addressing the Two Major Unpaid Issues in Housing Business—Rent and Condominium Management Fees—with Dialogue-Based ODR for "Payment by Agreement"

AtoJ Inc. (Headquarters: Kita-ku, Osaka; Representative Director CEO: Nobuo Tomita (Attorney); Representative Director CLO: Ritoshi Mori (Attorney); hereinafter: the Company), which holds the vision of "Bringing legal peace of mind to everyone's fingertips worldwide," will make its first appearance at "BREX 2026," a comprehensive exhibition for housing, architecture, and real estate, to be held at Tokyo Big Sight South Halls 1-3 & West Halls 3-4 from May 13 (Wednesday) to 15 (Friday), 2026.

We propose a "third option"—neither litigation nor self-collection—that uses dialogue to resolve the two major unpaid issues in the housing business—unpaid rent and unpaid condominium management fees—while maintaining relationships with residents and tenants.

Structural Issues of "Unpaid Condominium Management Fees" That Have Been Left Behind

In the field of condominium management associations, management companies, rental owners, and real estate management companies, unpaid rent and management fees create a significant burden on daily operations. While rent has the option of rent guarantee, unpaid condominium management fees are a structurally difficult area to address.

Although the collection entity is the management association (resident directors), the actual collection work is handled by the management company. In this division of roles, responses tend to be delayed, leading to risks of prolonged uncollected amounts, litigation, and deterioration of communication among residents. The structural difficulty of directors, who are chosen from among the residents, making collection demands has historically left unpaid condominium management fees unaddressed.

"OneNegotiation" Proposes a Third Option

OneNegotiation is an Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform certified by the Minister of Justice (Certification Number 176). It enables the completion of agreement formation for payment online for small unpaid amounts such as rent and condominium management fees.

By providing end-to-end support from mediation application after self-notification (demand) to agreement formation and payment confirmation, it reduces management tasks after self-notification (demand) by up to 90% while achieving a resolution rate of over 50%.

Since the service launch, the cumulative number of applications has expanded rapidly:

As of July 2025: Cumulative 7,000 cases

As of October 2025: Cumulative 18,000 cases

As of March 2026: Cumulative 30,000 cases (exceeded 30,000 cases)

Transition of OneNegotiation Cumulative Application Cases

Three Features of OneNegotiation

(1) Everything from application to payment is completed online. Applications can be made with just three pieces of information: name, amount, and contact details. Notifications via email/SMS/postcard, agreement formation, and payment confirmation are all conducted online.

(2) Residents/members can complete everything on their smartphones. After notification, the counterparty can choose from options such as "immediate payment," "installment payment," or "next month payment" themselves. Payment can be completed via smartphone/PC (no phone calls, visits, or postal exchanges occur).

(3) Attorney support if no agreement is reached. If an agreement cannot be reached through dialogue, it is possible to transition to consultation with an attorney (online mediation).
