| Domestic and International Investors Seek Opportunities in Increasingly Connected, Expanding Property Market |
TOKYO, May 31, 2023 - (ACN Newswire) - Organisers of the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards have opened the call for entries for Greater Niseko at an opportune time for the world-renowned Japanese holiday property market.
 | | The 5th PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (Greater Niseko) is now open for entries until 15 September 2023 |
The 5th PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (Greater Niseko) are now accepting entries ahead of their presentation on Friday, 8 December 2023. The awards will be announced on an international stage at The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok in Thailand, where the best of the best in the region's real estate will gather to celebrate industry excellence. Submissions are accepted online via: https://asiapropertyawards.com/
The emergence of increasingly upscale communities and easy access for Asian tourists and second-home buyers continue to contribute to Niseko's ascent, according to research from Property Report by PropertyGuru, the official magazine of the Awards.
With significant infrastructure developments in the pipeline, including a bullet-train route from Tokyo and a new regional highway, as well as a bid to host the 2030 Winter Olympics, Greater Niseko is bound for greater prominence in the coming years. While foreign families and individual investors continue to be the primary property buyers in the area, Greater Niseko is seeing renewed interest from Japanese individual and corporate buyers, many of whom are increasingly drawn to the area's emerging enclaves.
Jules Kay, general manager of PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards and Events, said: "With its world-class hotels and hospitality projects, Greater Niseko continues to be a significant player in Asia's property landscape, capturing the attention of investors, as well as the judges for the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards. As cross-border travel resumes in Japan, we eagerly anticipate the rebound of tourism in Greater Niseko, and are pleased to recognise and award the development and design firms that are revitalising one of the world's premier ski resort destinations."
Key dates for the 2023 edition:
15 September 2023 - Entries Close
2-13 October 2023 - Site Inspections
18 October 2023 - Final Judging
8 December 2023 - Gala Event and Awards Ceremony in Bangkok, Thailand
8 December 2023 - Regional Grand Final Gala Presentation in Bangkok, Thailand
The public are encouraged to submit their nominations before the deadline of entries on 15 September 2023 here: https://asiapropertyawards.com/nominations
New chairperson elected
Experts in real estate consultancy, design, and other fields have been assembled to form a panel of judges who will participate in a fair, transparent process of selecting the award recipients. This year, Eddie Guillemette, CEO of Midori no Ki (MnK), will serve as the new chairperson of the independent panel of judges, succeeding Bill Barnett, founder and managing director of C9 Hotelworks, who will remain on the panel.
Eddie Guillemette said: "I'm delighted to announce the resumption of the search for outstanding developments, companies, and design practices in Greater Niseko through the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards, in collaboration with an esteemed panel of independent judges. With the revitalisation of Japan's tourism sector and its close association with the real estate industry, we hold a positive outlook for the Greater Niseko property market this year."
Bill Barnett said: "Niseko is Asia's leading alpine real estate market and on the cusp of even greater things with a pipeline of international hotel brands such as Six Senses and Capella adding traction to the branded residences sector. We are optimistic of a significant market uplift this year based on very strong fundamentals."
The nominees shortlisted by the judges will be able to showcase their companies and projects to a wide network of property seekers, real estate agents, banks and valuers, and enterprises served by PropertyGuru Group (NYSE: PGRU), Southeast Asia's leading property technology company.
Supervised by HLB, the global network of independent advisory and accounting firms, the awards programme makes full use of a professionally run judging system, with an established reputation for credibility and integrity.
