TOKYO, Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — A result of survey was announced by one stop real estate platform service "RENOSY" provided by GA technologies Co.,Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato City, Tokyo; CEO: Ryo Higuchi; Securities Code: 3491; "the Company") regarding "Financial Assets Plans & Housing" among families with annual income of more than 10million JPY with children under schooling age living in major districts of Tokyo.

According to the research, "home funding" is the least considered among "retirement fund" and "educational fund", although these funds together are said to be the 3 major funds in life in Japan. "Lack of adequate knowledge regarding this field" is the answer that has being most frequently answered as the reason. On the other hand, however, home funding costs the most among the 3 major funds when it comes to preparation. People who are planning about spending on real estate usually see it as an investment for oneself and tend to pay more attention to the market price of the real estate property itself and the timing for sell.
