Global Agents and JR West Launch “TERMINALS Shin-Osaka” Social Apartment, 80% Leased at Opening

Global Agents Co., Ltd. and the JR West Group have opened the social apartment “TERMINALS Shin-Osaka” on August 9, 2025, following the renovation of a former company dormitory in Yodogawa-ku, Osaka City. The property is in a prime location with excellent transportation access, within walking distance of multiple stations including Shin-Osaka Station and Nishinakajima-Minamigata Station.

The property offers 69 units, approximately 80% of which were already leased at the time of opening. Tenants primarily include people relocating from outside the Kansai region and full-remote workers, with foreign nationals accounting for about 15% of residents, creating a diverse community. Shared spaces such as kitchens and lounges are designed to encourage daily interaction among residents.

This project aims to combine the functionality of single-occupancy living with opportunities for community building. By having Global Agents manage the property, the operators seek to foster resident interaction and respond to the diverse needs of both the local area and incoming tenant demographics.
