PropTech Japan Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Director: Mikito Ito), which develops real estate tech businesses, aims to realize a world where everyone involved in real estate is freed from financial stress. Leveraging the knowledge gained in real estate payments through the personal rent card payment app "RentEase," we challenge ourselves to digitize the entire flow of money in the real estate industry. Towards this dream, we will start by solving the issue of individual rent payments and expand our business into the B2B payment domain for real estate management companies, brokerage firms, and construction companies.
■ Dream Background ── The 'Flow of Money' in the Real Estate Industry Remains Stagnant
The real estate industry is one of the industries with the slowest DX adoption in Japan. The real estate tech B2B market is expected to grow to 518 billion yen by fiscal year 2030, and 99% of businesses recognize the need for DX. However, the reality in payment and accounting areas remains traditional.
Real estate management companies make payments by bank transfer or cash to dozens of construction companies, insurance firms, and legal professionals every month. Brokerage firms manually handle expense settlements for hundreds of properties during peak seasons. Reform and construction companies consider paper invoices and fax communication as standard, and it is not uncommon to wait over 60 days for payment.
There are approximately 330,000 real estate companies nationwide. The people working there are having the time they should be spending on property management and customer service taken away by money processing. This is the reality of the real estate industry.
■ Challenges Seen with RentEase, and a Challenge for the Entire Industry
Through the operation of our rent card payment app "RentEase," we have been dealing with the flow of money related to real estate on a daily basis.
Tenants pay rent. Owners pay management fees. Management companies pay construction costs. Brokerage firms pay advertising fees. Starting from a single "residence" as real estate, multiple layers of money transactions occur.
RentEase digitized the first layer – individual rent payments. However, what we saw was the reality that the entire industry's flow of money is still analog and stagnant.
Payment methods mixed with bank transfers, cash, and checks. Paper invoices and handwritten ledgers. An opaque structure where profitability per property cannot be grasped instantly.
We want to solve this problem for the entire industry, not just one layer. This is the starting point of our dream.
■ The Future We Aim For
The world we want to realize is one where all money flows in real estate are digitally connected and simplified.
A world where management companies can complete monthly payments with one click. A world where brokerage firms are freed from settlement tasks during peak seasons. A world where construction companies receive payment on the same day they complete their work. And a world where owners can grasp their property's financial performance in real-time at any time.
We aim to build a specialized payment and accounting platform for the real estate industry, digitally connecting the three central players in real estate money flow: management companies, brokerage firms, and construction companies. This is our challenge.
We will leverage the experience and customer base accumulated through our personal services for the transformation of the entire industry. We will grow this challenge, which began with the small step of RentEase, into the infrastructure of the real estate industry.
