Marks Life Receives Investment from Meiji Yasuda
Marks Life Inc., headquartered in Chuo, Tokyo, is delighted to announce a recent investment from Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company, located in Chiyoda, Tokyo. This funding is part of Meiji Yasuda’s direct investment initiative, the
Future Co-Creation Investment, which was launched in September 2022.
Background and Purpose of the Investment
At Marks Life, we focus on addressing the challenges associated with properties deemed problematic, or
negative real estate, by providing distribution support services. We also offer our unique service,
Jitsumado, which helps solve common issues related to family properties such as caregiving, end-of-life planning, and inheritance. Our mission centers on resolving societal challenges through real estate, thereby supporting the future of individuals and communities.
This aligns closely with the objectives of Meiji Yasuda’s
Healthy Living Project and
Local Revitalization Project. Both organizations aim to improve community well-being and tackle issues such as vacant houses and the isolation of the elderly. By working together, Marks Life and Meiji Yasuda aspire to contribute to the realization of a sustainable community.
Future Outlook
Leveraging the customer bases, networks, and expertise of both companies, we aim to generate new connections and cycles within local communities by providing real estate-based life support, inheritance strategies, and effective use of vacant properties. Marks Life is committed to continuing our diverse service offerings that support individuals through all stages of their lives. Our goal is to foster a community where everyone can live with peace of mind.
