If you want to live in Tokyo but are concerned about being turned away due to screening processes or guarantor requirements as a foreign national, the best shortcut is to focus on properties that explicitly state "Foreigners Welcome."
In multicultural areas like Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Takadanobaba, or along the JR Chuo and Yamanote lines, many property managers can assist you in English or Chinese. You can keep initial costs down by choosing properties that include utilities and Wi-Fi.
- If you are open to living outside of Tokyo, please check our nationwide list of foreigner-friendly share houses.
- If you are looking to move in with a partner or friend, our Tokyo properties that allow double occupancy are a great option.
- If you prefer to relax in a bathtub after a long day, please take a look at our Tokyo properties with bathtubs.
