Applicants with complete documentation are prioritized, but if multiple applications are received on the same day, simultaneous screening will occur.
Additional move-in costs include a monthly building maintenance fee of ¥1,000 and mandatory fire insurance at ¥7,000 per year. The agency commission is equivalent to one month's rent plus parking fee (plus consumption tax). Key replacement costs start from ¥25,000 (tax excluded), with the final amount varying based on the type and number of keys. A guarantor is required: they must be a working relative under 65 years old. Additionally, screening and enrollment with a rent guarantee company (Zenhoren Inc.) is mandatory, with an initial fee of 50% of the monthly rent (minimum ¥20,000, with a renewal fee of ¥14,000 per year). The application and contract process is conducted electronically.

The area is a short drive from the stunning Sunset Beach, a famous spot for watching the sun dip below the horizon.
