[For Financial Institutions] Environmental Survey of Residential Land History | Designated Survey Agency | Geotech
Eliminate blind spots in land transactions. Preserve collateral value through thorough examination of past land use history and pre-visualization of soil contamination.
In the lending operations of financial institutions, the preservation of the value of real estate collateral is extremely important. Particularly in the evaluation of land, it is essential to understand not only the superficial land classification but also the soil contamination risks arising from past usage history in order to prevent future asset value deterioration and legal troubles. Land that has been used as "mixed-use" in the past, for example, requires careful examination of the risk of hazardous substances. Our environmental surveys objectively visualize the potential risks of land through the examination of registration history, administrative documents, and scientific sampling investigations, thereby supporting appropriate collateral evaluations. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Risk assessment during real estate collateral evaluation - Confirmation of soil contamination risks for loan properties - Avoidance of liability for defects in land transactions 【Effects of Implementation】 - Visualization of risks through comprehensive tracking of past land classification change history - Acquisition of objective survey data based on the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act - Mitigation of asset value decline due to future environmental risks

Applications/Examples of results
The main application scenario is the voluntary verification process conducted by real estate developers and construction companies before the sales contract when acquiring new residential land or planned condominium construction sites. This applies even to general residential land that is classified as something other than forest or wilderness, if it has undergone a change in classification in the past and has been designated as "mixed-use land" or similar. Additionally, it is utilized for pre-risk management beyond the legal obligations associated with the evaluation of company-owned land during asset liquidity or M&A, as well as during the notification of land use changes when rebuilding factories. This helps to identify potential underground environmental defects that might be overlooked in advance, aiming to prevent transaction failures or legal disputes after delivery.
