Meidaimae Multifamily

Multi family purpose Seven story building

Meidaimae Multifamily is a newly built, high-quality multifamily property located in the Matsubara submarket of Setagaya Ward, one of Tokyo’s most sought-after residential districts. The property’s prime location provides direct access to Meidaemae Station. The seven story building features 58 residential units. The unit mix is well designed to capture increasing demand from young professionals and small families who seek high quality living spaces and urban connectivity. The base of the building also features a retail suite which has a long-term lease to a gym.

The property’s proximity to Meidaimae Station provides immediate access to both Shibuya and Shinjuku, two major Tokyo central business districts. The station is undergoing a large-scale redevelopment which is expected to further enhance neighborhood value through improved accessibility, traffic flow and retail offerings.

The Matsubara submarket has seen strong population growth in recent years. The total number of households grew by 6.5% between 2019 and 2024, outpacing overall population growth of 5% during the same period1, underscoring robust demand for rental housing in the city.

Tokyo multifamily is consistently ranked a favored city and sector combination by institutional investors due to low interest rates, ample liquidity, historical resilience and future growth potential. Transit-oriented locations, like Meidaimae Station, are poised for resilient growth given recent wage growth, return to office policies, and higher propensity to rent versus own. Nuveen Global Cities REIT is pleased to add its first directly owned multifamily asset in Asia Pacific to the portfolio.

Global city

The Tokyo multifamily market continues to benefit from strong migration into the city center. In 2024, Tokyo recorded an increase of 88,000 new residents, marking a 37% rise compared to 2019.2

The young population continues to migrate to urban areas, like Meidaimae Station, in search of live-work-play opportunities. Additionally, the influx of foreign nationals has further contributed to Tokyo’s population growth. These factors collectively drive demand for multifamily.

Overall occupancy in Tokyo has trended between 96% and 98% over the past decade. Even during the pandemic, occupancy rates remained within the 94% to 96% range. Additionally, rents in Tokyo continue to trend upward with rents increasing 6.4% in 2024.3 This reflects both the highly resilient demand for the multifamily sector and the landlord friendly market.
