If you are worried about language barriers or finding a guarantor, choosing a management company that welcomes international residents will ensure a smooth process from signing your contract to getting settled in, even right after arriving in Japan.
While the 23 wards of Tokyo offer easy access to the city center, if you are looking to keep rent costs down, the Chiba and Kashiwa areas along the Sobu and Joban lines, or the Saitama area around the Keihin-Tohoku line and Omiya Station, are excellent options. In houses where staff or fellow residents are nearby, you can feel confident navigating daily life, from taking out the trash to handling municipal paperwork, even if you aren't fluent in Japanese.
- For those working or studying in the city center: Share houses in Tokyo that welcome international residents
- For those looking for lower rent and more space: Share houses in Chiba that welcome international residents or Share houses around Omiya that welcome international residents
- For those who want to live with people in their 20s: Share houses for people in their 20s that welcome international residents
