Welcome to Blog o' Fudocom!
Welcome!
My name is Celina and this is the Blog o' Fudocom.
Now first, to introduce our site, http://Fudocom.com. Fudocom is an excellent resource if you are moving to Japan. It has recent listings of apartments, guest houses and houses for rent in Tokyo and surrounding areas in Japan. As we've only recently started this site, we expect big and better expansions to come. Currently, we've tried to ensure the site is extremely easy to use. Each property has several color photos to enhance and help you in your search. Please feel free to pass along questions and suggestions.
This blog was started as a simple and fun way to interact with users and other staff of our company. Feel free to hop on in.
As I've said, Fudocom is a new resource for apartments in Japan. However, our staff are not new to the industry. We'll do our best to ensure your search and inquiry process is smooth. Regardless of your Japanese language ability, you can be confident of getting affordable housing previously only displayed in English. Watch for more!

Hi, just a question. I'm from Australia and don't have much Japanese expertise. Is it difficult searching for apartments by going to a real estate agent in the area?
Welcome Jenn! And thanks for your question. I'm not sure specifically which area you will be conducting your search, but if it is a heavily fudosan (Japanese real estate agent) populated area you can go to those offices. The trouble is, often the English ability is low and the information is lacking. There are a few online resources to help search for an affordable apartment. Fudocom is one of them. If you're not finding what you want, please let us know and we'll do what we can.
Another thing I'd like to mention, most Japanese people when searching for an apartment are used to the additional fees. Please be careful of this if going into a real estate agent's office. You may be subject to pay 3-4 times the monthly rent for move in charges alone due to the Big 3 (deposit, agent fee and key money). Our site clearly displays if there are additional fees. You will find that most of our properties don't.
Best of luck!
