As a first-time resident and college student in Japan,I was very nervous about the apartment process,but Manami-san and the staff of BALLEGGS made it easy and very understandable.
It was also very quick.

Before you have a contract… what you need to prepare!
Hello!
How was your Valentine’s day?
Tokyo was full of VALENTINE’S DAY and CHOCOLATES…!
Well for me, I gave one to my dad ;P
This ‘Valentine’s day’ might be a JAPANESE culture.
Anyway.
When you have a contract in Japan,
usually you need to have a HANKO to sign the papers.
Ever heard of it?
‘HANKO’
It’s a stamp of your name.
And in Japan, instead of signing the paper you need to put the stamp on it.
So after you decided where to live-
before you sign the paper,
you need to prepare your HANKO!
Do you know how to make one?
Leave it to us!
We can help you do all the process to make a HANKO too.
And of course you can use the HANKO to other contracts – other than the apartment contract too.
I know it is really a ‘Japanese’ traditional culture,
but we will do our best support to help you get used to it ; )!
Feel free to contact us for further details!
The service and staff of Balleggs is…
FAST&PROMPT SERVICE, FRIEND&ACCOMMODATING STAFF 😉

More importantly she has always been very cheerful despite all the obstacles and made the process very peaceful and easy.
After you moved in… what you need to do to settle your new life!
Hello!
Hope you all are doing well ; )
It is starting to get slightly warmer these days in Tokyo…
Spring may come… soon? (A month to go!)
After you found a room,
Moved into your new place,
And what do you need? To set up your new life?
Electricity- sure you need.
Water- yes sure.
Gas- yup necessary, for your hot water to take a bath!
And …
INTERNET!!!
Can you imagine your life WITHOUT an internet line?
Me, no. I cannot.
To contact my family, friends, search something, view websites online and do your work…
Internet line is now 100% necessary for our life.
But to set up the line, connect to your laptop…
I know it is quite complicated.
Well, it was a mess for me.
But don’t worry!
We can of course help you set up the internet too.
We’re a real estate agent,
But our job is not only to find you the best flat.
We of course will help you start up your new life at the new flat!
So please feel free to ask us anything about the life in Japan/ Tokyo.
Looking forward to see you soon!
Thank you.
