Overview

Fantasista, founded in 1950, is a business holding company headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, that excels in domestic real estate and investment sectors through diversified business development.

Current Situation

Fantasista recorded consolidated net sales of approximately 10.6 billion yen and operating profit of approximately 1.5 billion yen for the fiscal year ended March 2023, maintaining stable performance. Centered on its mainstay real estate brokerage business, it has shifted from construction to real estate and investment operations, focusing on the group's comprehensive real estate management, operations, and investment activities. In recent years, it has advanced business diversification through new entry into the healthcare sector and subsidiary acquisitions to stabilize management. Based at Akasaka Biz Tower, it aims to enhance its presence in the city center, improve asset management efficiency, and create group synergies. After withdrawing from the construction division in 2020, it has concentrated management resources primarily on real estate and investment businesses, expanding real estate ownership and healthcare operations through consolidated subsidiaries. In the medium to long term, it plans to respond to domestic real estate market trends while keeping Asian markets in view. Additionally, in recent years, it has streamlined non-core businesses, such as transferring golf course operations and starting hostel operations, to focus management resources.
