The Japan Football Association has decided to sell the 11-story building "JFA House" in Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo.

The sale amount is expected to exceed 10 billion yen due to the decision made in consideration of the progress of employees working from home and the fact that repair costs of 1.4 billion yen or more will be required in the future.

In response to this, we will soon conclude a sales contract for land and buildings with a real estate company.



According to the association, commuting from home has progressed, the attendance rate of employees for the past year has remained at about 20%, and the cost of repairing buildings over the next eight years is expected to be 1.4 billion yen or more. It means that he decided to sell it.



The sale amount will exceed 10 billion yen.
