OAKHOUSE Reports Findings on 6% Yield Co-Living Properties Following Expo Real 2025 in Munich
OAKHOUSE shared insights from Expo Real 2025 in Munich, where its 6% yield co-living projects were presented, and outlined its U.S. market outlook for 2026.
TOSHIMA-KU, TOKYO, JAPAN, December 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- How does OAKHOUSE maintain 6% yields? A comparison with Europe and the U.S. highlights characteristics of Japan’s co-living model
OAKHOUSE, a Tokyo-based co-living company, announced the results of a survey conducted at Expo Real 2025 in Germany, examining how European investors perceive income-generating real estate. The survey confirmed strong interest in the Japanese housing market. At the same time, the results indicated that co-living as an investment model is still relatively unfamiliar in Europe, suggesting that further explanation and information sharing may be valuable. OAKHOUSE’s continued track record of maintaining a 6% yield was also noted by participating investors.
According to the U.S. Multifamily Investor Report published by CBRE in July 2025 and data from Global Property Guide released the same month, average real estate yields (cap rates) in major U.S. cities are generally reported in the 4% to 5% range (e.g., 6.51% in New York and 4.64% in Los Angeles). In this context, OAKHOUSE’s reported 6% yield represents a point of comparison when examining differences among international residential investment markets.
How OAKHOUSE maintains yields and occupancy rates
These differences in yields are largely attributed to variations in management structure. Founded in 1992, OAKHOUSE has accumulated operational experience in managing co-living complexes over several decades. In Japan, securing rental housing can be challenging for foreign residents, and OAKHOUSE focuses on addressing this segment. As a result, the company reports an average annual occupancy rate of 98%.
OAKHOUSE concentrates its properties in the Tokyo metropolitan area, Kyoto, Osaka, and Kobe. Within these regions, the company manages approximately 5,000 furnished co-living units and apartments.
A defining feature of OAKHOUSE’s properties is their international resident community. Residents live in a multicultural environment where they are exposed to Japanese culture and other cultures on a daily basis. The company also organizes more than 300 events annually through a dedicated smartphone application. These initiatives are intended to support long-term residency and stable property operations.
Future Initiatives
OAKHOUSE plans to continue strengthening communication with overseas investors while sharing information about its operational approach and properties.
