R A Asset Management

What R A Asset Management does

R.A. Asset Management Inc. (アール・エー・アセット・マネジメント株式会社) is a Tokyo-based property management and real estate consulting firm established on May 15, 1998, and operating as a subsidiary of Ken Corporation (株式会社ケン・コーポレーション), the diversified KEN Group's founding entity (established 1972). The company's headquarters are located in the Minami-Aoyama / Nishi-Azabu area of Minato-ku, Tokyo, and it operates with a registered capital of ¥50 million.

The firm delivers four core property management service modules — leasing strategy (リーシング関連業務), tenant management (テナント管理) with multilingual and 24/7/365 support, building maintenance and preservation (建物維持・保全省業務), and financial reporting/accounting (レポーティング・会計業務) — covering residential, office, and hotel assets across the full investment lifecycle from acquisition through mid-term management to disposition. It also operates a web-based registered-member portal for real estate broker and intermediary companies, providing vacancy search (updated three times daily), branded property document downloads, application forms, and email alerts. Additional offerings include fractional real estate investment products covering apartments, hotels, office buildings, and shopping centers, plus property valuation and consulting services.

Revenue is generated through managed-service fees for property management mandates and professional-services fees for real estate consulting, both contracted on a confidential basis with no public pricing. The go-to-market combines direct B2B engagement with institutional and individual real estate investors, a self-serve member portal for broker referrals, and cross-referrals from within the KEN Group ecosystem. Customers span three segments: real estate investors (primary), broker/intermediary companies (referral channel), and tenants/residents of managed properties. The company is privately held, with no disclosed revenue, headcount, or funding rounds in the source material.
