    In this episode of Japanese for Apartment Hunting, we dive into essential phrases that help new residents navigate the 2026 market with confidence. Many foreign renters struggle at the first fudousan visit when agents mention reikin, shikikin, or guarantor companies. This main episode equips you with three short, ready-to-use scripts so you can state your purpose, clarify fees, and express preferences without hesitation. Learn how to ask reikin wa ikura desu ka, request combined deposit calculations, and specify hoshounin gaisha o tsukaitai desu ga while noting monthly costs. Discover follow-up lines for move-in dates and contract adjustments that keep negotiations open and prevent surprise fees. These tools turn confusing encounters into productive conversations that agents respond to positively.

    Key takeaways:
    - Prepare three core phrases to handle fees and guarantees smoothly
    - Practice responses that signal preparedness and invite clear answers
    - Use timing questions to lock in details before leaving the office
    - Record and review pronunciation for natural delivery during short visits

    2026/07/11
    In this episode of Japanese for Apartment Hunting, we equip new foreign residents with practical scripts for fudousan office visits outside company housing. Learn how to open conversations, clarify reikin and shikikin fees on the spot, and request guarantor company options instead of a personal guarantor. These targeted phrases help you lead with clear intent, keep staff focused on costs, and avoid common delays during your first meeting.

    Key takeaways:
    - Start with polite greetings that signal you understand the market and want guarantor-company listings
    - Ask directly about total upfront costs, then follow up on whether reikin is negotiable
    - Redirect staff suggestions with calm statements about preferring guarantor companies when you lack family in Japan
    - Confirm payment timing, included fees, and successful tenant referrals before signing
