The first step
A conversation, not a form.
Most rental sites open with twenty fields in Japanese. Ours opens with a question. Answer in whatever language you're comfortable in — the agent works out the rest and passes it to a human.
- Ask in your own words"Somewhere quiet, near a station, under ¥80,000" is enough to start.
- No account needed to beginYou only register once you want us to hold your shortlist.
- A person picks it upEverything you type goes to a bilingual agent, not into a void.
How it works
Three steps. Zero paperwork until you're ready.
Our AI gathers your needs through conversation. Real staff verify and present rooms. You decide.
01
Chat with Agent
Tell our AI what you need in English, 日本語, or नेपाली. She listens and asks the right questions.
02
We match in the back
Our system shortlists foreigner-friendly rooms based on budget, area, and visa-friendliness. You don't see the noise.
03
Staff reach out
A real bilingual agent contacts you with curated options and walks you through application.
What we handle
The parts that usually stop people.
Renting in Japan isn't hard because of the rooms. It's hard because of everything attached to them. Here's what we take off your plate.
保証会社
Guarantor company, not a guarantor
No need to find a Japanese friend to co-sign. We arrange an approved guarantor company for you.
礼金・敷金
Key money and deposit, explained
We break down every line of the move-in cost before you apply — reikin, shikikin, agency fee, fire insurance.
内見
Viewings with someone who translates
A bilingual agent comes with you, or walks you through a video tour if you're still overseas.
契約書
The contract, in your language
We translate the terms that matter — renewal fees, notice period, restrictions — before you sign anything.
Know before you ask
What your budget actually gets you.
Japanese listings describe rooms by layout code. Here's what each one means, and the rent they typically ask in our areas.
1DK
25–35㎡Room plus a dining kitchen

Couples, or working from home
1LDK
35–50㎡Room plus living, dining, kitchen

Ranges are typical asking rents for our service areas, not live listings. Your agent sends real availability once you've told us what you need.
Where we look
Areas we know street by street.
Tell the agent a station and a budget. If we don't cover it, we'll say so instead of wasting your week.

Built for foreigners
Renting in Japan, without the wall.
Most agencies in Japan hesitate with foreign tenants. We work only with landlords who say yes — and we negotiate key money, guarantor, and paperwork on your behalf.

Questions
The things people actually ask.
Still unsure about something? Ask the agent directly — it's the fastest way to get a straight answer about your own situation.
Ask a questionDo I need a Japanese guarantor?
No. Most of our landlords accept a guarantor company (保証会社) instead of a personal co-signer. The company charges a one-time fee — usually around half a month's rent — and we handle the application with them on your behalf.
What does it actually cost to move in?
Initial costs in Tokyo commonly land between four and six months' rent once you add deposit (敷金), key money (礼金), agency fee, guarantor fee, fire insurance, and the first month. We send you the full breakdown for each room before you decide anything.
Can I start before I arrive in Japan?
Yes. Many landlords will review an application with a Certificate of Eligibility, a school acceptance letter, or an employment contract. Some ask to see your residence card before handing over keys — we tell you which is which up front.
Do I need to speak Japanese?
Not at all. You can chat with the agent in English, 日本語, or नेपाली, and a bilingual member of staff takes over from there — including at the viewing and the contract signing.
What happens after I send my first message?
The agent collects your budget, area, move-in date, and situation. Our team then shortlists rooms whose landlords are known to accept foreign tenants, and a staff member contacts you with the options.
What do you charge?
Talk to us before you commit to anything — a staff member confirms every fee involved in writing while you are still deciding, and nothing is charged until you approve a room.
Your next address is one message away.
Start in English, 日本語, or नेपाली. It takes about two minutes, and a real person picks it up from there.
