Casa, Inc. is in the housing rental guarantee business. Generically, the company offers services to young renters without established guarantors, offers services to landlords who want someone else to take the financial and operational risk of dealing with renters without outsourcing everything to a larger property management firm, and then  helps the owners through the re-rental process, which can include finding new renters, dealing with movers, insurance, and even inter-rental renovations. The company is essentially trying to brand the back office of a rental management company and as they create a bigger network of successful renters and landlords, and up-sell them related services.
Its services include Casa Cloud, a platform to match people who are willing to lend money to lenders; Nyukyosha Cafe, which offers information about travel, gourmet, car-sharing, shopping, and life support (for people who have just moved in); and Oya Cafe, an application that allows owners to have access to empty room measurements, rent management, and renovation information through the internet. The company was founded in October 2008 and is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.
