Compact and Convenient Studio Apartment in Kitakyushu
This rental apartment offers a compact and efficient living space in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka Prefecture. The property is a studio layout (One Room) with a total private floor area of 18.26 square meters (approximately 5.52 tsubo), located on the 3rd floor of a 4-story reinforced concrete (RC) building constructed in July 1987. The monthly rent is a very affordable 12,000 yen, with an additional 2,000 yen monthly management fee. Notably, there is no security deposit (敷金) or key money (礼金) required, reducing initial moving costs. However, a one-time key replacement fee of 16,500 yen applies.
Key equipment and features of the unit include a combined bath and toilet unit, air conditioning, a monitor-type intercom, and the use of propane gas. The building offers a bicycle parking area. Important special notes (特記備考) indicate a rent reduction campaign is currently underway. Additional fees to note are a move-out cleaning cost of 30,000 yen (excluding tax) and a contract renewal administrative fee of 11,000 yen (including tax) every two years. The rental contract is for a standard 2-year term. Tenant insurance is required, with an example cost of 18,000 yen for a 2-year Flex Small Amount Short Term policy, though details may change depending on the occupant and conditions. A rental guarantee company membership is also required (Epos, with the first month at 50% and 1.5% monthly thereafter). The property is currently vacant, and the move-in date is negotiable.
