Forway Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yohei Nakayama) launched a new book titled "Families Who Become Closer Through Inheritance, Families Who Drift Apart" by Junichi Kamejima, Representative Director of the National Happy Inheritance Planning Network, on May 1, 2026.
This book redefines inheritance not as "tax planning" but as "family relationship design," offering insights into preventing common unfairness, distrust, and conflict that often arise during inheritance.
It provides practical solutions, especially for families with real estate and younger generations who feel anxious about inheritance but don't know where to start.
■ Overview of the Book
"Families Who Become Closer Through Inheritance, Families Who Drift Apart" systematizes the differences between "inheritance that breaks families apart" and "inheritance that deepens relationships," observed by author Junichi Kamejima, who has handled over 140 inheritance consultations annually.
Many people tend to think that "writing a will ensures peace of mind" or "consulting an expert makes everything fine," but in reality, inheritance situations often lead to feelings of unfairness due to asset distribution, and family relationships deteriorate constantly.
Real estate, in particular, tends to create substantial unfairness despite formal equality due to its nature of being "difficult to divide, difficult to sell, and having low profitability."
To solve these problems, this book proposes an approach to design inheritance based on "overall optimization rather than partial optimization," considering aspects such as:
- Assessment of asset liquidity, profitability, and future potential
- Consideration of the recipient's life plan
- Securing funds for tax payments
- Designing a division plan acceptable to all family members
Furthermore, centered on the unique concept of an "inheritance cycle," it redefines inheritance not as "measures taken just before death" but as a "long-term project that begins the moment assets are received," delving into methods for family meetings and practical asset design.
■ Highlights of the Book
- Visualizes the "invisible unfairness" occurring in real estate inheritance and provides concrete solutions at a practical level.
- Presents an action plan that helps individuals move beyond the state of "not knowing where to start."
- Offers a unique inheritance design theory that transcends the "partial optimization" of tax accountants, judicial scriveners, and real estate companies, based on the overall happiness of the family.
