Singaporean investors are increasingly focusing on Tokyo’s residential property market, with interest doubling in Q1 2026, according to OrangeTee. The real estate agency noted a significant shift towards certified renovated homes in Tokyo, which offer ‘like-new’ interiors and corporate warranties. These properties, priced between JPY48m and JPY180m (approximately S$400,000 to S$1.5m), promise rental yields of 2.5% to 4%.
Steven Tan, Key Executive Officer of OrangeTee International, highlighted Tokyo’s appeal due to its familiarity and strong rental demand. “We are seeing increasing interest for completed or refurbished homes, reflecting strong interest in rental-ready properties, alongside long-term capital preservation,” he stated.
OrangeTee is responding to this demand by hosting its second Japan Property Day on 18 and 19 April 2026. The event will feature investment opportunities in central Tokyo locations such as Shinjuku, Kagurazaka, and Shirokane. It will also include expert-led sessions on the Japanese property market and a Chinese-language panel discussion on current buyer trends.
The event, in collaboration with Tokyu Livable, a prominent Japanese real estate firm, will offer one-on-one consultations for prospective investors. Registration is free and open to the public, underscoring the growing interest in Japan as a stable investment destination amidst global uncertainties.
