Mi-Casa Asset Management, Inc., the asset management company of Japan Rental Housing Investments Inc. (hereafter referred to as the "Investment Corporation") resolved at its board of directors meeting held today to change the Asset Management Guidelines. Details are as follows.
I. Overview of Changes to Asset Management Guidelines
Regarding the classification of target investment areas stipulated in the asset management guideline, "The seven wards of central Tokyo" is changed to "23 wards of Tokyo," and the investment ratios for each area classification are changed in accordance with the change in classification. In addition, the concept of investment ratio "based on number of units" used as a referential index is abolished (amendments are highlighted with an underline).
(Before the change)
Rental apartment categories | Investment ratio based on acquisition price |
Studio type | 50 - 80% |
Family type | 20 - 50% |
(Note) For formulation of investment ratio based on acquisition price, the following investment ratio based on number of units was used as the
reverential index.
Rental apartment categories | Investment ratio based on number of units |
Studio type | 55 - 85% |
Family type | 15 - 45% |
(Note) When a building is comprised of residences in several rental apartment categories, the entire building will be classified under the
category for which most of its units, based on number of units, fall under for calculation of investment ratio.
Target areas | Investment ratio based on acquisition price (Note4) |
The seven wards of central Tokyo (Note1) | 10- 50% |
The three major metropolitan areas (Note2) | 50- 80% |
