Environmental Survey of Residential Land History for M&A | Designated Survey Agency | Geotech
Geographical and historical survey
We visualize soil contamination risks from historical land use records and support the identification of off-balance-sheet liabilities in M&A.
In M&A advisory services, understanding the soil contamination risks associated with the land assets of target companies is extremely important for identifying off-balance-sheet liabilities and evaluating the appropriate corporate value. Particularly in cases where there is a history of "mixed-use land" in past registration records, the possibility of handling hazardous substances or waste disposal cannot be ruled out. To prevent potential liability for defects and damage claims after the transfer, objective historical investigations and pre-visualization through sampling are essential. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Environmental risk assessment of land assets during due diligence for corporate acquisitions - Soil contamination investigations of land previously used as factories or material storage sites - Identification of off-balance-sheet liabilities (such as soil remediation costs) before real estate sales contracts 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Objective visualization of soil contamination risks leading to appropriate corporate value assessment - Advance understanding of potential future liability for defects and damage claims - Decision-making based on reliable investigation data from Ministry of the Environment-designated research institutions

Applications/Examples of results
The main application scenario is the voluntary verification process before the sales contract when real estate developers and construction companies acquire 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 preemptive 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 and legal disputes after delivery.
