	After selecting a station, we will consult with you about your preferences concerning the monthly rent, and then move on to more details such as floor, bathroom style, layout, and any other concerns that you wish for us to consider.

	Through consulting about the various options that fit your criteria, our staff will escort you to the various apartments that you have selected. This will enable you to see the apartments first hand, making the decision easier.

	Once you have made your final choice, the staff arrange all the necessary paperwork to begin the rental and contract stages with the apartment owner.

	Come to Tokyo Housing to sign your contract. Sometimes you may have to sign at the property owner's agent. During this time, you will be asked to bring the money to cover the expenses for your first month's rent in addition to other charges such as key money (reikin) or deposit (shikikin). Altenatively, you may be asked to make a bank transfer before the signing.

Testimonials

Anya and Arin (USA)
Students
Once we met Miho-san, we knew that we were in the best hands and would not need to go anywhere else.

Bielov (Ukraine)
Ph.D. Student
The agency has carried out a huge and impressive work searching through over a few dozens of listings with my shifting requirements at heart. All of this on top of kind, polite, speedy, and professional treatment. Miho-san was a life saver for me and helped to alleviate my problems a lot.

Mathias (France)
Office Worker
Miho-san has been incredibly helpful throughout the whole process, from helping tailor my needs to filtering offers that would not be a good match to handling the communication with the owner's agent.

Veronique (France)
Production Coordinator
Miho-san is so patient and really helped me build a stronger application - it truly felt like I had someone fighting in my corner and giving me their full support.

Mohamed (Egypt)
Software Engineer
Miho-san listened carefully and fully understood what I was for in an apartment, in terms of size, internal structure and location. She made a great effort and contacted multiple properties that satisfy my requirements until we found the most suitable apartment.

Rhys (Australia)
Customer Service Staff
The staff are incredibly friendly and take a genuine interest in you, which also makes meeting with them, visiting the properties, and even the paperwork, easier.

Iasmine (France)
Patissier
They were professional but not cold at all and I felt relieved. They were really helpful too. I thank them for insisting on knowing my habits because they will do their best to find the most suitable place, and I'm totally satisfied with the place I live in.

Xyra (UK)
Working Holiday
Even though I only had 1 year on my visa and have a very low chance of renting my own place, Miho san helped explain my situation to all the management companies of the apartments we saw.

Bea (Philippines)
English Teacher
I’m very comfortable talking and expressing my needs with Miho. I highly recommend this agency if you’re a foreigner (or even Japanese) looking for apartments.

Sarah and Pablo (Spain)
English Teacher and Student
At Tokyo Housing they always gave us a hand with everything they could and took really in mind our requests when house hunting.

Gloria (Spain)

I already had experience with Japanese real estates but Tokyo Housing are by far the more reliable and really friendly. Being able to communicate in English for the details was pretty nice.

Javi (Spain)
Student
Miho-san is a great professional, patient and friendly. From the first day, she helped me a lot and solved all my doubts in this renting process.

Dror (Israel)
Student
Naoya-san and Miho-san asked me carefully about my needs, my budget, and my other requirements. Immediately right after that Miho-san searched available apartments in my wished area and started to call to many agencies. Immediately the day after we got on the train and saw 6 different apartments in one day!

Niu Yan (China)
Interior Designer
我是在之前找了两家中介公司租房都没有找到合心意的房子的，本来对这间公司也不抱太多希望，因为知道我喜欢的地段想租合心意的房子不容易，但没想到很快他们就帮我找到了我理想中的房子。

小曹 (China)
Student
这里的工作人员说实话人美心善，找房源的时候很细心也很有耐心，总是会站在顾客的角度看问题。找房子时候恰好是梅雨季节，经常打雷下雨，那个时候我盯着窗外就会想，人啊，还是得有个房子住！托Tokyo Housing的福很开心最后我找到了心仪的房子，再也不用担心流落街头了捏。

Dario (Italy)
Student
Tokyo Housing staff did plenty of research on my behalf and I had the opportunity to see plenty of houses before finally settling on one. They also helped me understand everything I needed to know before moving in my first house, which was useful after I lived in sharehouses for 4 years.

Johnny (USA)
Architect
Being able to communicate in English and having clear and professional explanation of all the house renting condition by native Japanese speaker is the most critical point, meanwhile searching time is extremely short and able to meet the requirement from customer.

Simon (Australia)

All of the people I dealt with at Tokyo Housing were friendly, supportive, and worked tirelessly for me to find a place. I was soon laughing and joking with the staff, and I came to enjoy our outings when we went looking for apartments.

Matt (USA)
Recruiter
Tokyo Housing put no pressure on us to make a quick decision. They gave us space to decide what type of apartment was going to be best for us. If it would have taken us a month to find our place, I feel confident that the boys at Tokyo would have been there to support us every step of the way.

Stevie (Ireland)
Researcher
We were made to feel welcome when we first arrived at the door of Tokyo Housing. Alex and Iwashita-san both tried to get an understanding of our requirements and it was good not to have to use Yahoo! Translate to communicate.

Alex (Sweden)
Som andra har skrivit tidigare så blir man bemött som en person och inte som en kund. Jag var lite skeptisk efter det allra första mötet för att tiden för det nästkommande mötet bestämdes så snabbt, men efteråt insåg jag att de bara var entusiastiska att hjälpa mig och lära känna mig.

Nicholas (Ghana)

Andrea (Italy)

My experience with Tokyo Housing was not just a trade, it became a human relation. While they helped me to look for a home, I was already feeling… at home. Staff and the office itself made me feel like I was receiving a friendly help and support, rather than just a service.
