Tokyo's Premier Real Estate Experts for Expats

The team at Tokyo Portfolio were so helpful when we moved to Japan. Our first chat with Alex helped us clarify what we would need to find our flat and later we worked with Blake to view and secure our flat. The whole process was so smooth and the team is so knowledgeable. At no point did I feel like I was asking too much! They really know the market so I can’t wait to work with the team again when we look to buy.

Moving in Tokyo can be really daunting, especially if you're new to the country and aren't quite up to snuff on the language. Alex and his team were absolutely amazing to work with. They found me exactly what I was looking for in short order and walked me through each of the uniquely Japanese steps. Since they speak both English and Japanese fluently, they were able to act as a bridge to make sure everything was as clear as possible. I would 100% recommend going through Blackship if you're looking for a great spot in Tokyo!

Blake was super kind and helpful throughout the process of finding a pet-friendly tower that accepted applicants with a student visa in Tokyo. He would even tell me what to prepare ahead of time so that I was ready and made all the paperwork as smooth as possible. I can't recommend them enough!

I received great support from the team, especially Mr. Taka Yoshikawa, during my search of places to rent around Tokyo. Finally I settled on a property that fit my requirements. My search took a bit longer as I was looking for an accommodation that came with a parking space to fit an SUV. Mr. Taka diligently enquired about the suitability of parking bays for the properties that I was interested in, which made my life easier. The business partner, Mr. Yasu was also helpful. Overall, I am satisfied with the level of services accorded to me by Mr. Taka. Thank you Tokyo Portfolio.

Taka was fantastic! I kept hearing that finding an apartment with limited Japanese knowledge can be a serious challenge, but the process was so much easier with this real estate agency. Taka was really kind and friendly, and helped me understand everything. I was really impressed at how smooth the process was with his help. Thank you!

Blake is outstanding - he knows the market, moves fast, is super responsive. Seemingly available 24/7, he is a terrific problem solver and will make sure you are fully comfortable with the rental process. And somehow he manages it all with a positive attitude and smile. In my particular case he helped me find an excellent flat in one of my favorite neighborhoods. Renting in Japan can be complicated - you need someone you can trust who will go to great lengths to secure the apartment you want. Blake is that person!!
