Special notes from the agent detail important financial considerations. The property is on leased land (旧法賃借権) with a ground rent of 7,269 yen per month, payable in advance, and the lease term ends on May 31, 2039. Under the old Land Lease Law, renewal periods are 20 years for non-solid structures and 30 years for solid structures. If financing is used, a loan commitment fee of 0.5% of the loan amount (minimum 100,000 yen) is required. Upon resale, a transfer consent fee of 2% of the transfer price (seller's burden) applies. A planned increase in the repair reserve fund is scheduled for December 2026. The interior photos shown are from another unit of the same type. The building underwent a bathroom renovation in November 2022, which included replacement of the bath unit and bathroom dryer.
The surrounding area of Shirokane-dai is known for its upscale residential atmosphere and green spaces. An interesting local fact is that the area is home to the Institute of Medical Science at the University of Tokyo, a leading research facility. The closest major landmark is the historic and beautiful Institute for Nature Study, a national monument and natural preserve offering a serene escape right in the heart of the city.
