Supporting Exit Strategies for Subleased Properties: 'Sublease Consultation Campaign' Relaunched

Frontier Co., Ltd., operator of 'Sublease Bukken Baikyaku-kun,' relaunched its 'Sublease Consultation Campaign' on May 22. The campaign offers free consultations regarding 'selling' as an exit strategy for subleased properties.

Questions such as 'Can I sell while under contract?' and 'What will the sale price be?' will be addressed.

Choosing 'sale' as an exit strategy can help mitigate risks. While it is possible to sell a property under a sublease, the pool of potential buyers may be limited, and sale prices could be lower compared to standard rental properties, often because buyers may be required to assume the existing sublease contract.

To prevent failure, owners should first review their contracts to check for termination clauses, penalty fees, and notice periods. If termination is possible, there is potential for a higher sale price. Alternatively, properties can be sold with the sublease attached. Determining the most advantageous approach depends on the specific property and contract details.

Features of 'Sublease Bukken Baikyaku-kun': - Introduction of the single highest bidder: An auction-style system introduces only the broker with the highest offer, minimizing the effort of contacting multiple parties. - Zero consultation fees: Consultations are free. - Zero brokerage fees: There are no brokerage fees if a sale is concluded.
