Important agent notes have been translated for clarity. The unit is move-in ready. The security deposit is 0 yen, but a one-time cleaning fee of 30,000 yen (tax included) is required at contract signing for future move-out. Key money is equivalent to one month's rent. There is no monthly management fee, but a common area fee of 2,000 yen applies. The renewal fee is one month of the new rent. A guarantor is not required as tenants join a guarantee company (Nihon Chintai Hoshou); the initial cost is 50-100% of the first month's rent, followed by 10,000 yen per year. Consultation is available for elderly tenants, involving enrollment in a specified household goods insurance plan costing from 17,000 yen for two years, depending on belongings. Pets are not permitted. The building's shared corridor side faces a pedestrian walkway, reducing any sense of enclosure. Four train lines and two stations (Urawa and Kita-Urawa) are accessible via bus, expanding your travel range. The apartment includes an IH stove, air conditioning, and storm shutters for peace of mind. Paid use of J-com InMyRoom provides cost-effective internet and cable TV.
The apartment is situated in Saitama City, a major urban center in the Greater Tokyo Area known for its blend of city life and green spaces. An interesting local fact is that the city was formed in 2001 by the merger of Urawa, Omiya, and Yono cities, and it now serves as the capital of Saitama Prefecture. The area is rich in cultural attractions, with the closest major landmark being the historic Hikawa Shrine, a significant Shinto site with beautiful gardens and a history dating back over 1,500 years.
