Running Out of Office Space

Confusion over whether market is maturing or overheating

In Osaka, particularly the Yodoyabashi, Hommachi and Shinsaibashi area along Midosuji Boulevard, which runs northsouth through the city center, buildings directly connected to stations were constructed one after another between 2025 and 2026. Contracts for rental office floors are being concluded and the strong demand from tenants stands out. On the other hand, some tenants are unable to move due to a shortage of rental space, declining new supply and soaring rents. After having enjoyed the benefits of a booming economy, the overheated market is now starting to dry up due to inflation.
