Critical agent notes specify that a viewing is mandatory and the property is prioritized in its current condition. A guarantee company is required, with an initial fee of 50% and a separate monthly fee of either 2% of the rent or 1,400 yen. A joint guarantor is generally not required, but an 'Anshin Service' (listed as a hygiene fee in the system) is mandatory at 990 yen per month. Fire insurance is also mandatory, costing 14,500 yen for two years. Pets are not permitted, and foreign nationals are not eligible for this rental. This is a fixed-term rental contract for 2.0 years, but renewal is possible for another 2-year term. If you move out during the contract period, a penalty of one month's rent applies. Upon moving out, cleaning fees and air conditioner cleaning fees will be charged. The handover date may change depending on the condition of the property. A special note adds that if pet ownership is negotiated, a security deposit of 100,000 yen would be required.
The apartment is situated in the vibrant Chatan area of Okinawa, known for its American Village and beautiful coastlines. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Sunset Beach is a popular spot for viewing spectacular sunsets over the East China Sea. The closest major tourist attraction is the famous Araha Beach, a family-friendly beach with clear waters and recreational facilities, just a short 5-minute walk from the property.
