Udgivelsesdato: Dec 08, 2018

Japan's decreasing population is causing negative effects on the property market. One major issue, is the number of abandoned homes that can be found almost anywhere. A potential solution one company has come up with is to refurbish them stylishly. They then find renters and share the lease income with the property owners. Elsewhere, a local municipality has created a new matching system to help find tenants for empty store and office spaces. This effort has helped the town to turn wasted spaces into new business.
