Premium units in managed buildings — typically with 24-hour concierge, car park access, high ceilings, and western-standard kitchens.
Common in Minato and Shibuya wards. Suited to senior executives and couples or families with 1–2 children.
Apartments
Entire floors of smaller buildings, offering lateral space and privacy uncommon in standard rentals in Tokyo.
Particularly sought after by families requiring multiple bedrooms, a home office, and entertainment space.
Townhouses
Detached and semi-detached houses with garden access — rare in central Tokyo and circulated almost entirely through specialist networks carrying premium pricing.
Particularly suited to families with children and pets.
Service Suites

We work with the leading serviced residence operators and manage placement at the corporate level.
Application & Moving Process
We are with you from the first conversation to the signed lease.
- Step 1 — Household Briefing
A structured briefing call to establish your household profile, arrival timeline, school requirements, commute priorities, lifestyle preferences, and budget parameters. This call takes 30–45 minutes and determines everything that follows. - Step 2 — Curated Property Selection
Based on your briefing, we compile a shortlist of 5–8 properties from our active listings and specialist network. We do not send you a bulk listing feed. We send you a curated set, with commentary on the trade-offs of each property relative to your stated priorities. - Step 3 — Viewing Schedule
We coordinate all viewings — typically condensed into a 1–2 day program for executives arriving on short timelines. We accompany every viewing, provide real-time market context, and manage communication with landlords and building managers. - Step 4 — Application and Lease Support
We manage the full application process — including guarantor arrangements, lease documentation review, and negotiation support where applicable. We cover the details in clear English. - Step 5 — Move-In Coordination
We coordinate registrations, utility connections, and key handover — and remain your point of contact for the duration of your lease for any building or landlord matters.
