Property Management & Investment Advice Services

Market Survey and Planning
Axios Management carries out extensive data collection on local demographics, market trends and investor sentiment. We perform in-depth analysis using this information, allowing us to identify optimum marketing strategies and target tenant profiles. Properties in Japan also have ‘peak rental months’. Axios Management takes advantage of this phenomenon by executing tenancy leases at those times of year, to maximize revenues for owners.

Market Analysis
We compare our client’s properties to similar offerings, whilst also incorporating long-term trends and macroeconomic factors in the analysis. This lets us negotiate rent levels that are both favorable to our clients and fair to tenants. Axios Management understands that the property industry evolves, so we continuously monitor the market for upcoming trends and developments. This ensures that transactions are based on the latest data.

Property Audit
Every property has its own unique characteristics. Before putting them on the market, we carry out a comprehensive audit to identify ways of adding value. This could involve recommendations for interior design, exterior renovation or functional improvements.

Property Enhancement
Axios Management has access to a strong network of high skilled and experienced contractors. Through this we can commission cost effective and profitable improvements to properties.
