Understanding Troubled Real Estate

In a time when there are over 10 million vacant homes in Japan, the real estate landscape is rapidly transforming due to the acceleration of digitalization. However, this shift also brings about various challenges, especially regarding properties that struggle to sell. Have you ever wondered why certain properties remain unsold? A recent report by SA Co., Ltd., a leader in acquiring troubled real estate based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, categorizes and presents the reasons why properties fail to attract buyers.

The company has compiled a list titled “100 Categories of Troubled Real Estate”, leveraging their extensive on-ground experience to identify 100 unique reasons behind unsold properties. This comprehensive list encompasses not only traditional troubled properties such as accident-prone homes and properties with shared ownership but also highlights contemporary issues arising from technological advancements and social changes. For example, it includes smart home malfunctioning properties and those linked to the metaverse, reflecting the modern complexities of the real estate market.

The 100 Categories of Troubled Real Estate

SA has categorized the reasons for properties remaining unsold into three distinct groups:
1. Traditional Trouble Types
- Examples include accident properties, those that cannot be rebuilt, and properties with unclear boundaries.
2. Technological and Institutional Evolution Types
- This category covers NFT rights, AI assessment errors, and home automation device malfunctions.
3. Lifestyle and Value-originated Types
- Examples include DIY shared property disputes, incomplete barrier-free constructions, and properties linked to the metaverse.

This unique classification seeks to view the factors dampening property values and transactions not just as mere defects but as reflections of broader societal structures and lifestyle changes.

Broader Implications and Uses of the List

The “100 Categories of Troubled Real Estate” is not merely a resource for individuals or businesses looking to invest or buy property. It holds significant potential in various contexts, including:

• - Serving as material for news reports and documentary features.
• - Providing educational resources for families facing inheritance or vacant property issues.
