Happy new year everyone!
We started to operate from January 4th. And we’ve been busy to reply to the inquiries and to go check our sharehouses.
●January to March is the busiest season throughout the year
Generally speaking, January to March is the busiest season. Many people in Japan start a new life from April and prepare for new job and new school. According to it, they start to look for a new place to live and they move to another place actually.
Therefore, they compete to take a room. In January, not only sharehouse companies but also other real estate agency has some vacant rooms (will be vacant rooms as well).
If you find a property which you are interested in, you should inquiry as soon as possible, and check the availability, the atmosphere, and so on.
In March, it is possible to see unsold rooms if I express in a bad sense. Of course, unsold rooms are not always bad according to the proverb “there is a fortune to surplus”. But you should act quicker to see many kinds of rooms.
●We Interwhao have sharehouses & apartment not only in Kanagawa but also Tokyo, Chiba, & Saitama prefecture
Our office is in Yokohama city, so our sharehouses and apartments locate mainly in Yokohama and Kawasaki city.
As you may know, almost all properties are good access to the cities of Tokyo.
To live in Tokyo tells us to pay more expensive rent. If you are worried about it, you should check our sharehouses in Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama prefecture which are easy access to main parts of Tokyo such as Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Tokyo, and Ueno.
●But I would rather live in Tokyo!!
Generally speaking, living in sharehouse enable us to move in with cheaper initial costs than living in normal apartments (there is no deposit, guarantor, key money, or other fees in most of sharehouse companies). Also, most sharehouses provide furniture and consumer electronics in the house. So the total fee is much cheaper to live in sharehouses.
Depending on room sizes and the distance from the station, the rent varies. But the average rent of our properties in Tokyo is 60,000~70,000 yen including utilities fee.
Currently, the sharehouses below are recommended.
・Firsthouse Oomori
Only 7 min walk to Oomori station in JR Keihin Tohoku Line, Oota-Ward, Tokyo.
A train goes to Shinagawa, Shinbashi, Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kawasaki without changing a train.
Rooms and common spaces have been renovated last December.
8㎡: 60,000 yen/ 10 ㎡：64,500 yen.
There are supermarket, drug store, and discount store within 10 min walk from the house. So there is no worry about shopping.
・Ma Maison Gakugeidaigaku
Only 7 min walk from Gakugeidaigaku station in Tokyu Toyoko Line, Meguro-Ward, Tokyo. Women only sharehouse.
A train goes to Shibuya and Yokohama directly.
The characteristic of this sharehouse is that there is a small kitchen in each room.
So the residents share only bathroom, shower, and washing machine.
The current vacant rooms are 現在の空室は、
10㎡：67,500 yen/ 12㎡：70,500
Meguro-Ward is one of the richest areas in Tokyo so it would be cheaper to live with this rent.
Also, we offer the special campaign for this sharehouse, “New Year Special Offer for Women Only”
So if you think staying longer, you can apply for this campaign.
・Firsthouse Tobu Nerima
Only about 5 min walk from Tobu Nerima station in Tobu Tojo Line, Nerima-Ward, Tokyo.
15 min for Ikebukuro station without changing a train.
Also, you can use Tokyo Metro line at “Chikatetsu Akatsuka station” which is about 10 min walk from this sharehouse.
You can go to Shibuya directly as well by this train.
10㎡:46,500 yen
The characteristic of this sharehouse is also that there is a small kitchen in each room.
●Conclusion
Our concept is that “We do what we can do.” We don’t often ask the technicians and the professionals to renovate the house.
By doing so, we can cut the cost and provide a cheaper rent with low price and high quality at the same time.
Some sharehouses have gorgeous installments in the house such as billiard, soundproof room for music, fitness room, and so on but the rent is much higher.
Some people think “I wanna live there because there is …” But later on, “I’ll move out because I can’t pay this rent anymore”
Also, “I started to live here because I wanted to use it. But since everyone uses it, I can’t use it much”
We are making an effort to provide the basic level of lifestyle with reasonable rent, not unsatisfied living environment.
If you start to look for sharehouses, please ask yourself “What do I really need?”
