Rental 1LDK Apartment Adachi Ward Tokyo

Congratulations to Richard of the United States for selecting selecting a 1LDK apartment with 36.54 m² of space for ¥70,400 in Adachi Ward, Tokyo. His new home is only a 10-minute walk from a station on the Tskuba Express Line and the Tokyo Sky Tree Line.

Richard required an affordable apartment with a high ceiling and lots of storage space. After three weeks of searching and visiting various properties, Rent Life was finally able find the right place for him.

Richard speaks a little Japanese and is quickly learning the language, but not quite enough to negotiate a rental lease contract on his own. We were very happy that we could assist him in everything from looking for the property, finding the right place, negotiating the terms of the contract, and finally assisting him with changing his resident certificate address, arranging for banking and paying of the utilities, and much more.

Congratulations Richard! And a big thank you for choosing Rent Life Co., Ltd. as your real estate agency.
