🏦 Case Study: Helping a Bank Sell More Foreclosed Assets

Using Alternative Selling Models to Unlock Stuck Inventory

🔍 Problem

In 2015, the Indonesian subsidiary of a major Korean bank financed a developer to build a 150-unit apartment project in South Jakarta.

By 2019:

  • The developer went bankrupt

  • 85 unsold units fell into the bank’s foreclosed portfolio

  • Between 2019–2022, only 10 units were sold despite working with top property agencies

  • Pressure mounted to liquidate the remaining inventory quickly

🤝 Partnership Opportunity

Tanaku identified a hidden insight:

Many potential buyers were interested in the units — but failed to qualify for traditional mortgages (KPR) due to:

Low downpayment availability

Minor credit bureau (SLIK) issues

💡 Tanaku reverse engineered the buyer profile and saw an opportunity to introduce a more inclusive financing structure.

💡 Solution: Rent-to-Own Exit Pathway

Tanaku created a Rent-to-Own (RTO) framework that allowed buyers to:

  1. Pay a low downpayment

  2. Get immediate access to live in the apartment

  3. Make monthly instalment payments

  4. Transition to a formal mortgage once eligible

  5. Enable the bank to record a clear exit from the foreclosed asset

📌 The bank provided the credit line to Tanaku’s RTO buyers — but had no active marketing or operational involvement.
