Effective Land Use & Seeking Asset Owners.

- 8 Key Benefits for Asset Owner-

1. Retain 100% Land Ownership

Operating rights automatically expire at the end of the 35-year term. This ensures a clean execution of future plans,whether returning the land to a vacant state or pursuing redevelopment.

2. Rapid Capital Recycling (Early Investment Recovery)

Receive an immediate distribution of 40% of the sales price for each membership unit sold. Upon sell-out, you will recover over 105% to 108% of your initial investment (approx. ¥31.68M to ¥64.8M).

3. High Tax Efficiency via Ultra-Short Depreciation3. High Tax Efficiency via Ultra-Short Depreciation

By utilizing trailer or container-type assets, achieve ultra-short depreciation over just 4 to 6 years. This allows for significant expensing to drastically reduce operating income and maximize tax strategies.

4. Optimized 35-Year Timeline

Our strategic timeline is perfectly synchronized with financial institutions' maximum development loan repayment periods (35 years), as well as the building’s useful life and depreciation cycles.

5. Fully Managed, Asset-Light Design

We handle everything—from guest acquisition, cleaning, and sauna maintenance to repair management. We completely eliminate unpredictable fixed-cost risks, such as utilities and operational deficit coverage obligations.

6. Hybrid Revenue Share (Projected 10-Year Average Yield: 8.92%–11.83%)

Receive a monthly distribution of 40% of general accommodation revenue. Even if membership sales are slow, unused slots shift to "luxury hotel slots at ¥50K–¥100K per night," rapidly boosting monthly income and ensuring stable investment recovery.

7. Strong Commitment from the Operator (The "2:1 Scheme")

Sauna-in demonstrates its commitment by investing 100% of its own capital to build one out of every three locations nationwide. We operate as a unified partnership, not relying solely on external capital.

8. Realizing a Projected 10-Year Average Yield of 8.92%–11.83%

A next-generation land utilization model structurally designed to hedge against downside risks in sales progress.

01. Partnerships That Sustain Our Business

Sauna-in builds a circular business model that enhances the value of regional assets. We achieve this by collaborating with a diverse range of partners, including asset owners, members, municipalities, local businesses, and financial institutions,while leveraging the unique roles of each.

A Hybrid Liquidation Model of "Membership Sales" x "Hotel Operations"

The asset owner builds a premier private sauna villa (total investment of 30 to 60 million yen). This property is then sold and operated on a shared ownership basis (fractionalized into 36 units) through a membership platform (the Sauna-in membership system). The construction investment is hedged through two avenues: "immediate cash back through rapid recovery as membership units are sold" and "sustained recovery where all unsold units are operated as high-end general hotels, with investment recovered through revenue distribution." This is a rational business design that guarantees a mid- to long-term investment recovery line with greater solidity than typical luxury hotel developments, even if membership sales progress is slower than expected or in the unlikely event that all units remain unsold.

03. Target Strategy

Inbound Travelers

Sophisticated travelers from the West and Asia seeking Japan's unique "ZEN" spirituality and uninterrupted "immersion."

Japanese Saunners

The destination for executives seeking "complete silence" and "self-confrontation," impossible in public facilities.

Corporate Offsites

Positioning "totoi" (the state of being aligned) in a space free from visual noise as the ultimate solution for modern mental wellness.

04. Why Saunas Are the Ultimate Investment

The Revenue Revolution Driven by the Third Sauna Boom (Third Wave)

Devastating Power as a Customer Attractor

Creates powerful motivation where "having a sauna makes people go (destination-driven visitation)." Attracting customers is possible even in inconvenient locations.

High Return on Investment (ROI)

Overwhelmingly lower initial investment and running costs compared to drilling for hot springs. Reproducible anywhere in the country.

Drug-like Repeatability

The experience of "totoi" (being aligned) involves brain pleasure chemicals, making it highly addictive. Once experienced, it creates customer loyalty that forces them to visit regularly.

05. Comparison: With vs. Without Sauna

Average Occupancy Rate: 45%

Projected Annual Balance: ¥5,484,936



06. The Rapidly Growing "Wellness Tourism" and the Rigidity of Existing Assets

Expanding Market

"Sauna and mindfulness" among the wealthy and executive classes has evolved from a transient boom into an established lifestyle (actual demand). However, neo-luxury, multi-location vacation homes equipped with sauna environments for the "ultimate totoi (state of alignment)" are overwhelmingly scarce in the market.

Limits of Existing Membership Hotels

These systems entail waste, where "unused rights for the year expire (non-refundable)," which does not align with the rationality of busy modern business professionals.

Tied-up Developer Capital

Regional resort and residential developments force developers into long investment recovery periods of 15 to 22 years,with yields significantly slowing amidst soaring construction costs.

07. Three Core Highlights of This Investment Opportunity

The "2:1 Portfolio" Development Scheme: Sharing Responsibilities and Rewards

For every three properties, Asset Partners invest in two, and Sauna-in invests 100% of its own capital in one. By clearly demonstrating "Skin in the game" on the platform side, we secure overwhelming trust from landowners and developers,enabling explosive speed in land acquisition.

A "Multi-Layered Revenue Model" that Avoids the J-Curve

While incorporating our own investment (1/3 of properties), the "membership sales margin" during new development is extremely high, allowing the initial investment to be offset and immediately become cash-positive after membership sales.Robust stock revenue is formed by "monthly management fees + actual accommodation costs + general hotel sales" from existing locations.

A Clean Exit Strategy Limited to 35 Years

The risk of properties becoming a liability after aging, typical of lifelong vacation homes, is completely eliminated by the "automatic expiration of rights upon the completion of the 35-year term." This is a beautiful financial design recognized by professionals, 100% synchronized with development loan and depreciation cycles.
