Core offering

Makoto Construction is a residential construction and homebuilding company that procures land, designs, builds, and sells detached houses (分譲住宅) and custom-built homes (注文住宅) primarily in the Osaka/Sakai region of Japan. The company also offers full and partial home renovation services (リフォーム) and operates two physical model home showrooms (Sumai-kan) in Sakai City where prospective buyers receive free design consultations.

Product overview

Makoto Construction operates as a regional housing developer and builder headquartered in Sakai, Osaka, Japan, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market.
