Imagine having the keys to your own ski lodge in Japan for less than the price of a garage in Sydney.
Not just any lodge either, the now private Aya Lodge in Madarao just two hours by Shinkansen bullet train from Tokyo. The lodge sits just 150m walk to the ski runs where you’ll be hitting up fresh powder on the daily and some of the best tree runs in Japan.
Then you and your extended family and friends can nestle back into 14 rooms with 34 beds in various configurations, renovated private and shared bathrooms, a dining room, bar and games room plus all those mountain views.
How do you get all of this for a mere AUD$100,000?
The team behind the formerly commercial Aya Lodge have set up an Australian fixed unit trust (Aya Lodge Madarao Unit Trust) for the freehold title land and lodge and are offering 11 fractional ownership opportunities to buy-in for AUD$100,000.
Madarao’s first private lodge offers a unique opportunity for both unrestricted year-round personal use and potential long-term capital growth. Not to be confused with timeshare or membership, this is one lodge for the use of eleven owners, how lodge ownership should be.
The beauty of the new Aya private lodge set-up is that you will have unlimited use for your friends and family. That’s 34 beds across 14 rooms only shared with 10 other owners across the winter season.
Thanks to recent foreign investments, Madarao is on the serious up. The lift company has been bought by Singaporean based fund, PCG (Patience Capital Group), with expansion plans for both Madarao and nearby Myoko Kogen ski villages.
The AUD$2.2billion investment will inject some serious dollars into the surrounding area and no doubt increase the value of properties in the region, including Aya Lodge.
The premise is simple, you buy into the lodge as a fractional owner. You have equity ownership in your own club lodge with 10 other owners. The lodge has a unique booking system for owners that is fair and equitable so everyone gets their fair share of powder (and the other three seasons of course).
Where do I sign?
There are only 11 fractional ownership offers (four have already sold) with an initial investment of $100,000 AUD and a one-time contribution to Capex Account of $10,000 AUD for future improvements.
As an owner you get to choose when and how often you stay in the lodge and for how long.
All the benefits of owning a lodge without the huge outlay.
