Gentosha Gold Online Inc. will host a free online webinar featuring Hiroyuki Kumashiro, General Manager of the Sales Planning Department at Ceres Corporation, licensed real estate transaction specialist and AFP, and Nobuhiko Yamamura, representative attorney at Yamamura Law Office. The webinar will explain the practical realities of using income-producing real estate by working backward from inheritance failure cases seen by an attorney, while taking into account land characteristics specific to the Tokyo suburbs. Rather than focusing on whether to build, the session will introduce a design-based approach to inheritance planning that starts from the exit question: how assets should be passed on without disputes. Event overview: The theme is inheritance and business succession. The webinar will be held online on Thursday, June 11, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Participation is free. The session addresses common views in inheritance planning, such as “apartment construction is frightening because of debt” or “doing nothing is safest.” However, when using income-producing real estate as part of inheritance planning, not knowing the reality is itself a major risk. The webinar will organize the risks of real estate use in inheritance planning, dispel the misconception that real estate utilization tends to cause losses, and explain from a lawyer’s perspective why income-producing real estate can be necessary for inheritance measures. It will also cover characteristics unique to areas near Tokyo, such as the tendency for land values to be maintained or rise and resilience against inflation. Based on the view that real estate is an asset not for increasing wealth but for protecting it, the speakers will discuss concrete ways to use apartment properties while looking ahead to succession. The webinar is recommended for people who hesitate to use income-producing real estate because they fear debt, those who own land or property near Tokyo and are concerned about future in
