Hi guys!
A lot of catching up here!!! If you're new to my channel, my fiance and I just relocated to Tokyo. It's officially 1 month since the move!
Talking about our apartment hunting experience, we didn't do a lot of research because tbh, it's not really needed - you're required to rent through an agent anyway. I read online a few articles about popular neighborhoods that are popular among the expat community. We are a couple without any children - ideally, we knew that 2 bedrooms - 3 bedrooms is something we want. After looking at some apartments, 2 LDK (LDK is the term used here in Japan for living, dinning, kitchen) is the most suitable for us, which are all in this video.
Thanks for watching!

i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I somehow lost the password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Gus Rohan instablaster ;)
@Jagger Carson Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Jagger Carson it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account !
Apartment 2 & 7 are my dream apartments.
#7!!! 😍😊
Yeah 7 is really nice but too big for just the two of us 😅
9 and 13
8 its pretty to
@@gekbul9847 8 is gorgeous if it wasn't for the view
I didn't even realize how little views and likes this had!! but this is definitely a video I needed. I've been doing my research for 2LDK apartments in Tokyo but I couldn't find good pictures or examples! thank you for this video!
I’m so glad you liked it. Good luck of finding your apartment in Tokyo and be sure to search some agency as well because they will take you to see apartments, so far as I know that’s how renting works here. I find it really helpful specially in a new place. 🤗❤️
Lol just be VERY warned that these places in the vid will be EXPENSIVE, I’d recommend looking a Suumo for a 2DK
I wonder at the prices at these places. I know money is a touchy subject, but it's nice to know in videos like this what you can get for your money.
2LDK Corner La Tour's go from about 5000 USD / mo. Location and newness is major factor. La Tour Shibuya Jinnan is the newest La Tour finished last year, this one would probably be more like 8000 USD / mo. La Tour Chidoya in gov business district would be much cheaper because there's nothing much going on at night. Then, any apt from 4000 USD / mo you can get 5% off and maybe up to 10% in the higher range but that's about it. If you know a good agent.
People live in closets outside Tokyo and pay 400 dollar… This is obviously a New York prices story. 4000 dollar and up.
I love the concept of taking your shoes off before coming in, wish it was like that here in the UK...
Same! I appreciate it so much.
i’m in the uk and i thought everyone did that-
These apartments are awesome I'm so happy for you guys!!
I watched, waiting to find out what the apartments cost per month. I figured, maybe I'll go look at the video on my computer so I can see if it was posted in the description, only to find out this info isn't shared at all. Without that context, this is kind of useless for most of the people searching this topic. Even if your budget is $8k/month, you still desire context to know what your budget will get you. I'm done watching these apartment videos on TH-cam. Either is a 35 year old single woman showing you every pair of shoes and random knick knacks in their apartment, or like this video, with not enough context for it to be useful. Not to be critical of just this video, as you're certainly in good company doing this on TH-cam. It would just be nice to finally encounter one of these videos offering the kind of info that pretty much every person who has ever rented anywhere in the world desires to know - how much does it cost?!
U sound really bitter if u want to check sth go to google lmao she doesn’t have to share that kind of stuff and I guess that if she told the prices, the comment section would be filled of hate and bitter comments :)
@@lucsaf9810 Like half the folks in the comments, I'm bitter I wasted that much time watching a video that didn't include basic info about the topic in the title. If you are uncomfortable providing info, just say at the start of the video, this is about me, myself, and I, I have no desire to provide in-depth info - this is a navel-gazing project. ok, cool. I'll click somewhere else.
@@escapeak5830 2LDK in the Shibuya,Shinjuku start at ¥280,000 newer age of building in addition to larger space and closer proximity to major stations will increase price. The big cost with renting in Japan are the move in cost, typically key money which is the same price as the rent and then there could be an additional deposit. So a $3500 apt could cost closer to $9000 to move in. Parking is limited in the city a parking space could run you ¥25,000 per month per car etc etc
What about Tokyo profile, the blackship realty? They explain kinda more in their videos
26:26 Look at the bathtub, OMG. Unbelieveble!
Thanks for sharing....this was v. helpful. I am moving next year!
That’s so exciting!
Apartment 2 was so gorgeous. Those windows and views are to die for!!
Yes, I thought it was the best one
That's really exciting. I wish I was looking for an apartment in Tokyo!
Definitely the most exciting thing I ever did!☺️
@@hereisjess Haha! I can imagine!
❤️
I'll be moving in Japan in the next few months and I honestly can't wait!
Beautiful apartment..peaceful place.
Makes a welcome change what you typically see apartment viewing
I'm dreaming going to Japan one day and I hope while I'm still young I can still learn before going to Japan 😊
Omg sameee I’m planning on starting the kam gauge this week 😊
wow you had a big day!!
Man can’t wait to live in Japan
I cant wait either but these apartments are like $5k a month 🤚😭
Wow. Got a high budget
Apartment #4 is my favorite
Number 2 was the best
Holy Big Bucks, Batman! Wowser! 😲😜
Awesome Video
Thank you for watching! 🙌🏼
The 3rd one was my favourite
Wow, What type of work do you do? Some of those apartments are probably in the $3,000 a month price range.
I think her men has the Money 😂
3000 USD would be roughly 300.000 JPY. 2LDK La Tour go for 400.000 JPY but then you get the bad apartments in the center with only one side windows. They're looking at corner apartments so probably more like 500.000 JPY / mo or up so > 5000 USD / mo.
@@TokyoTaisu I have a 2LDK apartment for 80,000 Yen or under $800.00 in Japan.
@@Mwoods2272 location is everything. I am moving to a 2LDK 300.000 Yen soon for the sole reason so the kids can stay in their hard fought for daycare spot. When the youngest turns 4 cant wait to move out of Minato-ku and into suburbia and pay a similar amount like yours.
@@TokyoTaisu indeed. the location is really crucial. even a studio in meguro station vicinity could costs >$2,000 a month.
raising peoples expectations with this video...lol
Omg I wouldn’t be able to decide between apt 2, 3, 9, and 12.
Ok on 2nd thought I like apt 9 a lil more than the others bc of the balcony, the kitchen is also nice, the living room is also huge, great view, lots of light, etc
Chiyoda is probably the most expensive ku in all of tokyo
These apartments look really spacious compared to the typical ones in japan. May i ask what are the price range of these apartments if u don't mind sharing . Also which agent should i contact with to get tours of such apartments?
These are high end condos. Google La Tour apartments in Tokyo.
Yeah this is not apartments , this is condos, High end condoes.
#7 & #8 are my favorite😫
Thank you for this video. it would be better if you specify the location and cost. This is extremely helpful for people like me who is looking to find a good expat friendly apartment in tokyo. It’s hard to find information online. Any of these apartments in meguro district? Looking one in the area.
You can kinda tell by the price sometimes...I’ve been looking for a while and it’s very expensive in Tokyo centre and obviously size , I use japan real-estate website
Hi Jess, I love your videos! I am going to relocate to Tokyo in Spring 😊 and I am wondering where apartment 7 (which is a house) is? Many thanks!
Who else is getting Persona vibes from this video?
lucky to be expat, because i have a friend can stay in expensive hotel but payed by the company.. ;) and those places are good specially in the city.. :)
Omg where is apartment two, I need it
2, 4 ,7 are the ones i would live in
These apartments will cost my whole month paycheck
Which one did you choose?
Look at those 5 star hotel halls lookalike with even front desk 😂😂😂…USD piles coming through.
are these apartments for rent or for sale?
And I would like to know the price/rent of the 12th apartment
The rent of the apartment 3 is at minimum of a ONE MILLION yen per month. Also, the first payment is probably of almost 2 millions yen. They are not a regular couple ($$). I'm not saying this in a bad way. They are luck to be who they are.
Hi! What's the price range of these apartments? 😊
Looking at some other comments these apartments are in the range from $5k and up
The question to me isn't if I would live there, its how much it costs that depends.
Just moved to Tokyo also apartment hunting, did you end up going with any of these apartments? Which agency did you go through?
Hi Shawn, yes we went with apt #9! :) Already moved in and we love it. Rise Corp rise-corp.tokyo/ is the agency we used, I added their website here. Good luck and hope you'll find a place soon! Really exciting to be starting the new year in a new place!!! Enjoy and keep safe, happy new year! :)
@@hereisjess Thanks for responding, Apt #9 has an amazing view and space. The top floor terrace and gym is also nice. Will update if I find a cool spot!
Yay! Enjoy this time :)
I would like to know the price of the apartments.
little bit small at list 300~400 sqm for me this is how big is my house in ebisu garden place
I would live in #2 or #3 right now if I could LOOK AT THEIR VIEWS

Y'ALL RICH FOLK...

6.44
hotels or apartments www
No I’m a man
These people gonna be in serious trouble during an earthquake. Rock n roll.
Your intro of the apartment is so dead and with one word to describe every room and kitchen that i find the apartment does not come as interesting base on your intro.
Toxic. I doubt they could even afford half the apartments from their personal salaries . And if they could … ok. This is not a typical apartment search in Tokyo and would never be considered a standard.
I would say though, I was surprised at how shit the La tour apartments were fitted. Anyone worth their salt would buy and reform over that crap.
why is it toxic?
