Critical agent notes and conditions have been translated: The brokerage commission is equivalent to one month's rent (plus parking fee) plus consumption tax. Floor plans and photos are for reference; the actual condition of the property takes precedence. A guarantee delegation fee applies: 70% of the total rent at contract signing, and a monthly fee of 1% of the total rent. However, the guarantee company and fees may change depending on the contract details. Enrollment in 'Life Support' is mandatory at a monthly cost of 1,100 JPY, prorated for both move-in and move-out months. This is a fixed-term lease contract (2 years); a renewal incurs an administrative fee of 16,500 JPY (tax included). Early termination during the contract period incurs a penalty. The contract requires one joint guarantor (within 3 degrees of kinship, under 65 years old, with income). The guarantee company is Aplus Guarantee. Again, the guarantee company and delegation fees may vary based on the contract.
The Kumoi area is a historic part of Naha, known for its traditional Ryukyuan architecture and cultural sites. An interesting local fact is that this district was once a major center for Ryukyuan lacquerware and textile production. The closest major tourist attraction is the vibrant Kokusai-dori (International Street), a bustling avenue filled with shops, restaurants, and entertainment, located just a short monorail ride or walk away.
