Invalance and Mitsubishi Estates Collaborate on Smart Home Integration

In a significant development in the real estate sector, Invalance Corporation, based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has reached a partnership agreement with Mitsubishi Estates Corporation, located in Chiyoda, Tokyo. This collaboration will see the integration of Mitsubishi Estates' comprehensive smart home service, HOMETACT, as a standard feature across all units in Invalance's investment apartment series, CREVISTA and LUXUDEAR.

This partnership aims to enhance the living experiences of residents, offering added value and making use of the latest innovations in smart home technology. By sharing the latest information on properties and devices, as well as fostering active cooperation for new product development, both companies seek to contribute to creating a modern, convenient lifestyle.

Background on HOMETACT Adoption

Invalance prioritizes the safety and convenience of its residents, ensuring that they can live comfortably every day. By improving the quality of living in its apartments, Invalance helps maintain and enhance the long-term asset value for property owners. After evaluating various smart home solutions, HOMETACT was selected for its advanced technology, stable system operations, and potential for future expansion, making it a perfect fit for Invalance's vision.

Providing a Comfortable Smart Life

With the inclusion of HOMETACT in the CREVISTA and LUXUDEAR series, residents will benefit from the following services that support a safe and comfortable smart lifestyle:

Seamless Living Experience via Facial Recognition and Smart Intercom

Residents can enjoy high security and convenience, as the facial recognition technology eliminates the need for keys, preventing the risks of loss or theft. Accessing different areas of the apartment building requires nothing more than a glance, whether it's entering the building or reaching their front door. A dedicated app allows residents to verify visitor identities, communicate, and remotely unlock the door.

Consolidated Control of Smart Home Devices

All units will come equipped with IoT-enabled lighting and air conditioning systems, which can be controlled collectively through HOMETACT. This means that new residents can start using these systems immediately without complicated setups. Furthermore, they can integrate their existing devices—such as TVs, Wi-Fi speakers, and smart lighting—with the capability to customize their living space according to their lifestyle preferences using the app or voice commands.

Future Developments

Starting from October 2025, some of these smart home services will be available in the new CREVISTA Manseicho apartments. Invalance, in collaboration with Mitsubishi Estates, will strive to provide comprehensive support for residents using HOMETACT, ensuring long-term satisfaction both for residents and property owners. Moreover, both companies are committed to redefining conventional housing concepts, promoting the introduction of smart homes as a new infrastructure for future living.

Company Comments

Yamada, Executive Director of Invalance, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, "This collaboration with Mitsubishi Estates will elevate both the asset value for our owners and the smart living experience for residents. Our joint efforts will contribute to the healthy development of the real estate market as we work to create future standards together."

Likewise, Tachibana from Mitsubishi Estates shared that the collaboration materialized through the recognition of HOMETACT’s vision and operational capabilities. He affirmed the commitment to enhancing service quality and maximizing asset values for investors. Together with Invalance, Mitsubishi Estates aims to improve resident experiences using transformative smart home technologies.
