A New Trend in Managing Family Properties
In Japan, the trend of managing inherited family properties, or "Iekaji", is undergoing a significant evolution. This shift is exemplified by the innovative services provided by Nexwill Corporation, particularly their "Wakagai" program. This initiative was recently featured on TV Asahi's "Super J Channel," where its many benefits were highlighted.
Understanding the ‘One-Stop Family Property Management’ Service
The traditional processes involved in disposing of family properties have often been complex and burdensome for heirs. Tasks such as handling legal documents, resolving ownership disputes, and finding buyers can be overwhelming. Many potential sellers experience anxiety about where to start, how to navigate the paperwork, and the complications of shared ownership. Consequently, properties often remain vacant due to these challenges.
Nexwill has recognized these hurdles and is addressing them with their new "One-Stop Family Property Management" service. This solution not only simplifies the physical management of the properties—like purchasing difficult properties—but also provides emotional and legal support for families dealing with inheritance matters. By offering guidance for navigating such disputes and assisting with comprehensive property assessments, Nexwill aims to reduce the stress associated with these transitions.
The Recent Presentation and Media Attention
On January 14, 2026, Nexwill hosted a media event to discuss these innovative solutions, providing insights into how the service works and sharing testimonials from families who have successfully navigated their inherited properties through the "Wakagai" service. The event served as a platform to showcase their commitment to resolving property issues that many families face while ensuring that these processes can be handled smoothly and efficiently.
The focus of this service is to eliminate the numerous burdens on heirs by managing both the physical and mental aspects associated with family property transitions. This all-encompassing approach allows families to focus on their emotional healing during difficult times while leaving the complexities of property management to trained professionals.
More About Nexwill Corporation
Headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Nexwill focuses on acquiring and revitalizing challenging properties that are typically hard to sell, such as vacant homes or those with legal entanglements. The company works to clarify ownership rights and navigate complex legal frameworks, making it possible to resell these properties effectively.
Misconceptions surrounding "problematic properties" often lead to confusion among people, many equate them strictly with properties that have a history of accidents. However, problematic properties can encompass a much broader range, including shared ownership situations, properties that cannot be rebuilt due to zoning laws, and those that have tangled title histories due to repeated unregistered successions.
Nexwill aims to resolve these issues by purchasing such properties, rectifying ownership and legal hurdles, and bringing them to market in a manner that is both ethical and beneficial for the community.
Addressing the Empty House Crisis
As Japan grapples with an escalating number of vacant properties, Nexwill is actively engaged in public-private partnerships with local governments and sports teams to address this urgent issue. By forming agreements with multiple municipalities, Nexwill is supporting efforts to mitigate the vacant house challenge while collaborating with sports teams to leverage community engagement and promote local revitalization initiatives.
