Mitsuba Group x Miyoshi Real Estate Group Launch Joint Provision of "Lifelong Support" as a "Second Family," Staying Close Until the Very End

Mitsuba Group, comprising judicial scriveners, land and house investigators, administrative scriveners, and a corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Makoto Miyagi), has commenced joint provision of "Lifelong Support" with Miyoshi Real Estate Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Osamu Miyoshi) and its group companies. Experts in various fields will collaborate to provide comprehensive support, from assistance during one's lifetime to procedures after death. ■ Social Background and Emerging Issues Amidst the declining birthrate, aging population, and increasing number of single-person households, more individuals are facing anxieties regarding securing "identity guarantors" required for hospitalization or facility admission, as well as funeral arrangements, estate liquidation, and various procedures after death. The roles once naturally fulfilled by family members are now increasingly difficult to rely on, with more cases of "no reliable relatives" or "difficulty asking relatives." Furthermore, specialists addressing these issues are dispersed, and the burden of "having to consult multiple specialists individually" has been a significant hurdle for both individuals and their families. ■ Service Overview This service provides comprehensive support, from "support during one's lifetime" to "support after death." ・Daily life support (regular visits, accompanying outings, shopping代行, etc.) ・Asset management, contract agency ・Guarantor for hospitalization/facility admission ・Medical consent for end-of-life care ・Emergency response, etc. ・Various other contracts necessary for support ・Funeral arrangements, interment ・Government office, various public procedures ・Estate liquidation ・Cancellation of public services ・Withdrawal of deposits from financial institutions ・Sale of real estate, transfer of ownership ・Distribution of assets based on a will, etc. *Expenses required after death will be entrusted to Miyoshi Smile Trust, a trust company registered with the Financial Services Agency, during one's lifetime and safely managed in a legally protected trust account. ■ Service Features 1.
