Goldeneye invests in, rebuilds and operates real estate across Japan — from resort hospitality and regional apartment buildings to land in high-growth resort areas.
Goldeneye has operated since 2015 — first in Hong Kong, advising Asia-Pacific investors on real estate, and since 2024 as Goldeneye LLC in Tokyo, investing in and operating Japanese assets directly.
We focus on properties the wider market passes over: buildings facing ownership succession issues, assets in need of significant repair, and corporate disposals — across leisure destinations within reach of Japan's major cities and the industrial cities of northern Kyushu and the Seto Inland Sea. Our edge is buying well, then doing the hard work of construction, licensing and operations ourselves.
We buy, rebuild and operate property across three areas, each built on proprietary sourcing and a cost basis well below replacement value.
Ryokan and small hotels in leisure and resort destinations within about two hours' drive of Japan's major metropolitan areas, acquired from owners without a successor, through distressed situations, or from corporate disposals.
Apartment buildings in the industrial cities of northern Kyushu and the Seto Inland Sea, where manufacturing, shipbuilding and heavy-industry employers support steady rental demand, acquired through corporate disposals and off-market sales.
Development land in high-growth resort markets, sourced off-market through long-standing local relationships.
Goldeneye acts as general contractor on its own projects, supported by a trusted network of specialist trades.
Direct operation of accommodation assets, including lodging licensing, fire and safety approvals, and online distribution.
Planning, subdivision and entitlement of resort-area land for residential, hospitality and mixed use.
Long-standing relationships with owners, brokers, municipalities and trades that bring us opportunities before they reach the open market.
Hands-on oversight from acquisition through repositioning, stabilization and disposition.
Two decades across Canada, the United States, Hong Kong and Japan, combining an international outlook with local execution.
