City Pal Kasuga Centre B2

This condominium is located in a tranquil residential area of Ohtani, Kasuga City. With daily amenities conveniently within walking distance, it's a rare unit that can be acquired as a stable, community-rooted real estate asset with a compact investment scale in the latter half of the 10 million yen range.

Kasuga City has long been chosen by residents as a bedroom community for Fukuoka City. Among its districts, Ohtani 9-chome is a quiet residential area, away from the hustle and bustle of main roads, yet boasts two Seven-Eleven stores and the local supermarket "みどりの源" all within walking distance, offering the convenience of completing all daily necessities.

Another unique feature of this area is the presence of multiple medical facilities nearby, including Nakayama Clinics and おの子どもクリニック. Residential areas with robust medical infrastructure tend to be chosen as long-term residences by families with children and seniors, leading to a high tenant retention rate.

A 31-minute walk to Hakata-Minami Station might seem far when compared to properties closer to the station, purely based on numbers. However, this distance is precisely what allows for a price range in the latter half of the 10 million yen, creating an attractive yield when compared to the rental rates in the same area. Furthermore, in Kasuga City, which also has aspects of a car-dependent society, it's crucial not to overlook the significant number of tenants who prioritize the "richness of their living environment" over proximity to a station when choosing a home.

For investors who prioritize grounded asset building rather than flashy investments aiming for large returns, this property can quietly yet steadily serve as a consistent part of their portfolio.

Investment Points: - Acquire real estate assets in a high-demand residential area of the Fukuoka metropolitan area with a low entry cost in the latter half of the 10 million yen range. This is also an effective strategy for diversifying holdings away from the many high-priced properties in central Fukuoka City. - The robust daily infrastructure, including two Seven-Eleven stores, the local supermarket "みどりの源," and multiple medical facilities, creates a "desirable living environment" that goes beyond mere station proximity, laying the groundwork for attracting long-term tenants. - Kasuga City, while adjacent to Fukuoka City, has its own history as a residential area with a high retention rate among local residents. It is suitable for conservative asset management as a stable real estate market supported by daily demand, with fewer speculative price fluctuations.
