The possibility using of Silver Human Resources Centers for the maintenance and management of vacant houses was examined. A questionnaire on the maintenance of vacant houses was mailed to 1,328 Silver Human Resources Centers throughout the country, and 720 effective answers were obtained. Currently, there are 265 centers that maintain and manage vacant houses, and the number of members is relatively large, and there are many centers that hold workshops and lectures for members, as well as centers that cooperate with regional community general support centers and Societies of Commerce and Industry. In addition, regardless of the current status of involvement in vacant house maintenance and management, it is possible that many centers will be involved in the maintenance and management of vacant house in the future. Furthermore, securing and training people to perform vacant house maintenance and management, standardizing and formalizing vacant house maintenance and management, and providing information to vacant house owners are required, along with the cooperation between Silver Human Resources Centers and administration or local resident organizations, building and real estate experts, and so on.
