Smart Shuzen Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Kenjiro Toyoda, hereinafter "Smart Shuzen") has commenced a business partnership with Leben Community Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Shinsuke Naka, hereinafter "Leben Community").
This partnership involves utilizing the estimate construction support service "Smart Shuzen" for large-scale repair works and common area works of condominiums managed by Leben Community.
◆ Background and Details of the Partnership
Leben Community manages not only condominiums developed and sold by its group company, Takara Leben, but is also increasing its contract management of condominiums sold by other companies, rental residences, and commercial buildings, boasting a management record of 79,400 units (as of December 2025). As the managed condominiums age, the demand for repair works has rapidly increased in recent years.
Smart Shuzen Co., Ltd. (a first-class architectural firm) operates "Smart Shuzen," a repair support service for large buildings such as condominiums and offices. They provide estimation and construction support for a wide range of common area repair works, including large-scale repairs, elevator renewals, and intercom replacements, with the monthly volume of construction estimates proceeding (on a project basis) reaching several billion yen.
In this partnership, Leben Community will utilize "Smart Shuzen" based on property characteristics for large-scale repairs and common area works of condominiums and commercial buildings it manages, aiming to optimize construction content and costs. Leben Community, which maintains and manages buildings through daily management, and "Smart Shuzen," a professional in repair work estimate support, will team up to aim for better customer experience and realization of repair works.
The service operation, similar to "Smart Shuzen," will be covered by marketing fees from contractors, totaling a few percent for both companies. Furthermore, this partnership will in no way affect the use of "Smart Shuzen" by residents living in Leben Community properties. When utilized, "Smart Shuzen" will continue to aim, as it does now, for condominium management associations and real estate owners without specialized knowledge to be able to trade fairly, unaffected by industry circumstances.
