IELOVE Partners Begins Business Alliance with REMODELA! Jointly Develops Guarantee Product Allowing AI to Fully Handle Move-out Inspections

IELOVE Partners Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Nozomu Tashiro; hereinafter “IELOVE Partners”), a group company of IELOVE GROUP Co., Ltd., has commenced a business alliance with REMODELA Inc. (Headquarters: Osaka-shi, Osaka; Representative Director: Takuma Fukumoto; hereinafter “REMODELA”).

Additionally, we are pleased to announce the joint development of a new guarantee product that combines “IELOVE Anshin Hosho” provided by IELOVE Partners with three services provided by REMODELA, enabling AI to fully handle move-out inspections and reduce trouble risks.

■ Background and Challenges

In the practical field of the rental property management industry, visual inspections and paper-based records remain mainstream.

For rental property management companies facing severe labor shortages, the burden of inspection duties, including travel, is extremely heavy.

Furthermore, disputes over restoration costs at the time of moving out of rental housing remain a major challenge for the entire rental property management industry. While the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's “Guidelines for Restoration Costs and Disputes” is becoming more widespread, idiosyncratic operations persist, leading to inconsistencies in judgment depending on the experience level of the person in charge. Cases where “insufficient evidence” regarding discrepancies from the time of move-in become a source of conflict are not uncommon.

Therefore, improving operational efficiency and standardizing quality have become urgent management issues for rental property management companies.

■ Overview of Jointly Developed Product

This plan allows free use of the following three services provided by REMODELA, in addition to “IELOVE Anshin Hosho” provided by IELOVE Partners.

(1) Move-in Check Service

Tenants can photograph and report the property's condition using a smartphone at the time of move-in, preventing disputes like “this damage was here when I moved in” at the time of move-out.

(2) AI Move-out Inspection Service

This service eliminates the need for human move-out inspections. It uses AI video analysis technology to detect and analyze damage and dirt remaining in the room at the time of move-out. It can automatically calculate the burden of restoration costs based on various judgment factors, including the “Guidelines for Restoration Costs and Disputes.”

(3) Integrated Construction Management (Basic Function)

This centralizes communication regarding restoration work and repairs during tenancy, making progress visible.

By utilizing these products, owners, rental property management companies, and tenants can all achieve cost reduction and risk mitigation at the time of move-out.

Owners: Enhanced evidence, enabling guarantee application that was difficult conventionally.

Rental property management companies: Reduced costs for move-out inspection duties, standardized judgment quality.

Tenants: No need for move-out inspection, fair and secure burden of restoration costs based on objective records.
