Here's what others are saying
Found super fast exactly what I was looking for with the help of Blake and his team. great support, professional and extremely responsive throughout the journey. He helped me navigating through the for foreigners reallychallenging housing jungle - and also still supported after the key handover with any topic. Definitely highly recommend, especially for anyone not speaking Japanese. Thanks a lot Blake!!:)
Taka helped us look through countless places to find a suitable home. He was always prompt at responding and extremely helpful. We’ll be back again when it’s time to look for our next place. Thanks Taka!
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!
We had a great experience working with Blake from Blackship Realty. He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and responsive throughout our entire apartment search. Guided us through the process, provided great recommendations and answered all our questions quickly. We highly recommend to anyone looking to rent in Tokyo.
Blake and the team at Tokyo Portfolio provide an excellent service. From start to finish excellent communication and after completing on a place Blake was kind enough to ensure utilities were working on our move in date. Give these guys a go!
Taka went out of his way to spend time learned about our requirements, giving us insight into the local market, and negotiating with properties for us. We would recommend to anyone both domestically and foreigners alike. Thank you for making our move to Tokyo so smooth.
I spent months reaching out to Real Estate Companies in Tokyo, and was met with no luck. I reached out to Tokyo Portfolio and Alex guided me to one of the agents, Blake to help with my wants. Blake helped orchestrate, communicate, and explain everything in detail since I know little Japanese and made the process of getting an apartment simple. Thanks to Tokyo Portfolio I was able to reach all of my needs with not issues.
Taka is very helpful when i needed the help. he pays a lot of attention to detail and suggest a lot of great recommendations based on my circumstances. definitely recommend
Great experience with this agency, they helped me found a nice solution for my accomodation in Tokyo in a short time.From the first meeting and throughout the whole process, they have been responsive and flexible to meet my schedule in order to organize house visits.I had the pleasure to be assisted by Taka, whom is very professional and patient, and I would highly recommend working with him.
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!!
This was the second time I had used their services when finding a new home in tokyo. This time, Taka san helped me with a very fast and smooth transition into my new home. He was extremely attentive to all details and was very proactive throughout the whole process. 10/10 would ask for Blackship Realty for their help again!
Taka and Alex put in a lot of effort to help find my place. They were also more than happy to help out with issues even after moving in. Great at communicating in both English and Japanese too
As an American, I can say that moving to Japan is overwhelming. Practically from the day we arrived, it was a scramble to deal with housing, work, and a seemingly endless series of bureaucratic forms.One thing that made our transition easier was working with Taka-san and Blackship Realty. Taka-san is fluent in both Japanese and English, and he did good by us. He showed us a bunch of places, both apartments and standalone houses, and then helped us put our best foot forward on the application. He stayed with us every step of the way, and he let us know that we can contact him with any problems even after move-in.Renting a Japanese apartment is surprisingly complicated and bureaucratic compared to what we’re used to in the US, and rejections are common. If you’re not fluent in Japanese (or even if you are), you definitely want someone like Taka-san advocating for you.
For expats living in Japan, we all know how difficult it is to navigate the housing system and find the ‘right’ place. Really grateful to the team at Tokyo Portfolio for helping me through the process (multiple times). Friendly and professional, would highly recommend!
Finding a home in Tokyo has never been this easy! Blake helped me looking for my ideal apartment and it was a success. English-speaking staff will help you not only finding a place but also along the paperwork and setting of utilities. It was a pleasure to be assisted by them and made the whole moving process much easier. Can’t recommend enough!
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.
I had an amazing experience with Blake. He worked around some very tight deadlines to get me moved in as quick as possible. He was always very responsive and could answer my questions whenever they came up. I would recommend Blake and Tokyo Portfolio to anyone, and especially if you are not familiar with the rental process in Japan.
