[Mitsubishi Real Estate Services] Released "2025 Second Half: Corporate Real Estate Strategy and Market Outlook" Report

Mitsubishi Real Estate Services Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Shuichi Shimizu) has published its latest report, "2025 Second Half: Corporate Real Estate Strategy and Market Outlook," based on recent surveys and market analysis. This report details corporate trends in the real estate buying, selling, and leasing markets and presents strategic outlooks.

Report Overview 1. Real Estate Buying and Selling Market Selling: Corporate intention to sell is at an all-time high, with supply increasing to improve capital efficiency. Strategic sales for growth investment are predicted to progress further. Buying: Investment appetite remains solid, showing an aggressive stance to secure new revenue sources. Flexible reviews of investment criteria are needed in response to soaring prices.

2. Real Estate Leasing Market Offices: Relocation needs for securing talent are expanding. Space optimization focusing on quality is accelerating amid high rents and low supply. Apartments: Tight supply in central Tokyo due to "work-home proximity" needs has created a landlord-favorable market. Rent increases are expected to continue and become standard upon renewal.

Highlights from the Report - Buying Market: "Supplementing core business revenue" and "entering new businesses" are top reasons for purchasing, indicating a shift toward securing new revenue streams. - Office Market: Despite high demand, rental office supply is insufficient. The percentage of abandoned relocations rose by 2.8pt, primarily due to poor cost-effectiveness (+17.1pt) and lack of available sites (+9.7pt). - Work Styles: Return-to-office styles are becoming the standard again.
