No Security Deposit, Key Money, or Agency Fee
We don't charge the security deposit, key money, or agency fees that are typically required when signing a standard rental lease. Most monthly properties charge a cleaning fee of around 10,000–20,000 yen, but standard rental contracts often total around 300,000 yen in upfront costs — making monthly mansions significantly more affordable.
Furnished & Appliances Included, Utilities Pre-Contracted
Standard rentals require you to shop for and move in furniture and appliances, and set up various utility services upon moving in. With a monthly mansion, everything is ready from day one — just move in and start living.
No Minimum Stay Requirement
Standard rental contracts often impose penalty fees for cancellations within the first year. Monthly mansions allow short-term stays, making them ideal for those who need temporary housing for job transfers, new employment, or school enrollment.
