What Property Design does

Property Design operates Tokyo Office Check (東京オフィスチェック), a commercial real estate listing, brokerage, and relocation support platform focused on the Tokyo metropolitan office rental market. The platform indexes over 48,800 rental office and studio properties across Tokyo's 23 wards and parts of Kanagawa prefecture (Yokohama, Kawasaki), with searchable filters by train line, ward, map, area size (tsubo), rent range, building age, earthquake resistance, air conditioning type, and 24-hour usage availability. It also offers an interactive Layout Simulation Tool for sizing space based on headcount and supports free office viewing coordination. Underlying technology is a conventional listing database with faceted search, favorites, browsing history, and per-ward/building landing pages, with no disclosed AI/ML, proprietary model, or API surface.

The business model is landlord-side transaction commission: tenants pay zero brokerage fees, contract documentation fees, layout proposal fees, or relocation budget estimation fees, while the company earns referral fees and commissions from property owners and listing landlords. The revenue stream is transaction-fee based on successful lease introductions, with disclosure required when tenant-side commission applies. Go-to-market combines a self-serve digital platform (website, search, favorites, layout simulation) with an inside-sales consultation layer delivered via dedicated phone line (0120-888-025), LINE messaging, and email inquiry forms.

Primary customers are small to medium enterprises with 5–50 employees seeking office relocation or expansion within Tokyo, with secondary segments covering startups, large corporations, and solo entrepreneurs. Anonymized case studies span staffing, digital marketing, personal training, food processing, and IT development tenants ranging from 15 to 60 employees. The company differentiates through zero-fee tenant brokerage, access to both listed and unlisted properties via owner relationships (ward-level coverage includes 1,014 buildings/5,052 spaces in Shibuya and 819 buildings/5,205 spaces in Shinjuku as of April 2026), and bundled free services covering layout proposals and full relocation budget estimation including B-works, moving, and restoration costs.

Revenue model

1. Brokerage Commission from Landlords: The company receives referral fees and commissions from property owners and listing landlords rather than charging tenants. This model enables the company to offer free brokerage services to tenants seeking office space. The company also earns revenue from some non-listed property recommendations where circumstances may require a tenant-side commission, though this is always disclosed in advance.
