TERASS Financial Technologies: A New Era in Real Estate Services
Introduction
On June 27, 2025, TERASS, based in Minato-ku, Tokyo, announced the establishment of its new subsidiary, TERASS Financial Technologies. The primary goal of this new entity is to develop and provide technology-driven financial services specifically tailored to the real estate sector, enhancing the overall customer experience and meeting diverse client needs.
Background of Subsidiary Establishment
In recent years, the real estate market has been significantly affected by soaring property prices and rising interest rates. These shifts have increased the demand for financial products and advising related to property purchases and sales, including financial planning, taxation, and inheritance. Recognizing these changes, TERASS aims to bolster its service offering to encompass the financial aspects related to real estate transactions.
This strategic move emphasizes the importance of flexibility and speed in delivering new value to clients. Hence, the formation of TERASS Financial Technologies is a pivotal step toward creating a more robust service framework within the TERASS Group, ensuring that they can effectively cater to the evolving needs of their customers.
Functions of TERASS Financial Technologies
TERASS Financial Technologies will concentrate on several key areas of operation:
- - Development and management of a housing loan database service called "Loan Checker"
- - Real estate transaction services, including buying, selling, brokerage, leasing, and management consultations
- - Investment management services along with investment advice and representation
- - Banking agency operations
- - Money lending services
By expanding these services, TERASS aims to enhance the real estate transaction experience it offers while ensuring that both clients and agents have the support they need for making informed and secure decisions.
