For International Investors

Osaka Is Open for Business.

Japan's most dynamic city is attracting international investors — and we know it better than anyone.

Why investors are looking at Osaka

Osaka has quietly become one of Asia's most compelling real estate markets. Strong inbound tourism, a shortage of quality short-term rental accommodation, and a city government actively welcoming international investment make this a rare window of opportunity. We've spent years working with international visitors here — we know what travelers want, and we know which neighborhoods are underserved.

What We Offer

Short-Term Rental Properties

We identify properties suited for Airbnb and short-term rental operation, and manage them end-to-end through Stay Buddy Inc. — our Osaka-based hospitality management company.

Hotel & Guesthouse Projects

From concept to opening, we support international investors in developing boutique hotels and guesthouses in Osaka's most sought-after neighborhoods.

Advisory & Introductions

Not ready to buy yet? We offer market introductions, neighborhood walkthroughs, and investment briefings for serious buyers exploring the Osaka market.

We only work with people who share our values.

Osaka has a culture worth protecting. We introduce properties to investors who are committed to responsible operation — people who want to contribute to the city, not just extract value from it. Our hospitality management background means we stay involved after the transaction.

MICHI is operated by Stay Buddy Inc., an Osaka-based hospitality management company. Real estate brokerage services will be available from October 2026 following licensing completion. Current services are limited to introductions and advisory. This page does not constitute an offer to buy or sell real estate.
