House Hunting
for foreign nationals looking for somewhere to live in Japan.
We provide personal assistance to each individual when looking for somewhere to live.Compared to Japanese nationals, the number of properties they can rent is limited. We check the availability of each of the properties individually, and negotiate with the relevant companies or owners so that you can live in the house that you like. There is said to be a lot of dishonesty in the real estate market, but we can honestly convey the good and bad points, and the availability, of each property, so please feel free to consult with us if there is anything you do not understand.
