Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. (“Mitsui Fudosan”)
has concluded an agreement with Nippon Building Fund Inc.
(“NBF”) to sell its portion of Shibuya Garden
Front and Shibuya Garden Front Annex (collectively, “the
property”), an office complex located near JR Shibuya
train station in Tokyo.
Mitsui Fudosan will sell its entire portion of the property
(corresponding to 20% of the total) to NBF. Please refer
to the attached materials for details of the sale.
The property, a modern office complex equipped with the
latest facilities, was completed on September 30, 2003 in
a joint venture with Sumitomo Life Insurance Company.
Mitsui Fudosan undertook the project management for development
of the property under consignment from Sumitomo Life, with
the intention of creating an office environment for workers
that would be safe, comfortable and practical.
Tenants for the property are transcosmos inc. and
its affiliated companies, which will use the property as
its headquarters. The property had achieved full capacity
at the time of its completion, which will allow it to generate
stable earnings. This matches NBF’s desire to acquire
office buildings that allow for asset management with long-term
stability, and led to the sale agreement.
The Mitsui Fudosan Group, in accordance with its long-term
management plan Challenge Plan 2008, has announced its intention
to expand the general real estate management business. One
of the typical methods of business conducted under the Challenge
Plan 2008 is to develop property through joint investment,
reap development benefits from the sale of value-added property
to investors, carry out project management during development
and manage the property after completion.
