Tamiya Home’s Free Consultation Event on Vacant Properties

Tamiya Home Co., Ltd., headquartered in Tokorozawa, Saitama Prefecture, is hosting a second free consultation event dedicated to vacant land and houses on September 1, 2025, at their Tokyo office. This date coincides with Disaster Prevention Day, highlighting the company's commitment to addressing the issues caused by vacant properties, particularly in light of past natural disasters like the Noto Peninsula earthquake.

The earthquake revealed critical challenges, particularly in obtaining consent for the demolition of damaged buildings, leading to obstacles in the recovery process. Understanding this pressing issue, Tamiya Home has positioned its main business of demolition services as essential to disaster preparedness by facilitating solutions for vacant land and homes. They hope that through these consultations, they can solve concerns for many property owners while contributing to disaster-resistant urban development and community revitalization.

According to Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, more than half of vacant houses result from inheritances, with nearly 30% of owners living far from the properties. This leads to difficulties in managing and maintaining these often neglected homes. Tamiya Home recognizes that preemptive discussions among family members regarding these properties can significantly impact disaster preparedness.

Importance of Preemptive Measures

Tamiya Home's President, Akihiko Tamiya, who holds multiple licenses including a second-class architect and a qualified disaster risk assessor, emphasizes the importance of proactive measures. He advocates for discussions and actions concerning vacant homes and lands before disasters strike, to help mitigate potential damage and improve community resilience.

The consultation event aims to provide insights into property management, potential demolition, and options for community improvement—essentially a guide to taking informed action before disasters occur. Tamiya Home intends this event not just as a consultation but as an opportunity for education and preparedness for the future.

Expert Consultation Team

At the forefront of this event are two dedicated team members who bring invaluable experience from their military backgrounds as former members of Japan's Self-Defense Forces:

Toshiki Ajimino

Toshiki Ajimino served in the Ground Self-Defense Force before transitioning to Tamiya Home. He places great importance on the role of demolition in disaster prevention, explaining that proactive measures can greatly reduce the risks associated with old and potentially dangerous buildings. He is committed to explaining how appropriate actions can improve safety and living conditions in communities.

Kō Sakaguchi

Kō Sakaguchi, also a former member of the Ground Self-Defense Forces, has firsthand experience in disaster response and recovery from events like Typhoon Hagibis. He stresses that managing vacant properties is key to enhancing disaster response capability, emphasizing that proper property management can save lives during catastrophes.

Their combined expertise ensures that attendees of the consultation have access to knowledgeable insights regarding disaster preparedness and vacant property management.

Ongoing Support and Future Initiatives

Beyond the event on September 1st, Tamiya Home is committed to ongoing support, offering patrol services for vacant properties to monitor issues such as unauthorized dumping and other management concerns. They are also launching a new division for real estate solutions in 2025, focusing on the sale or leasing of properties before and after demolition.

With a vision rooted in community welfare, Tamiya Home’s approach is about more than just business; it is about fostering safe, resilient neighborhoods. If you're a property owner seeking guidance or looking for ways to contribute to disaster preparedness in your area, don’t miss this opportunity for a valuable consultation with Tamiya Home.
