 Finding an apartment that meets your criteria can be extremely stressful (especially as a foreigner living in Japan), but my experience was nothing short of incredibly smooth thanks to Kaz Harada. He always thinks a few steps ahead, is very responsive, and instantly grasped what I was looking for. Not only did he handle most of the paperwork and other administrative matters, but he's also easy to communicate with and always managed to keep our apartment hunt across Tokyo efficient and productive. I'm grateful that I was able to find the right place thanks to Kaz-san, and I highly recommend Hikari Homes to anyone looking for a place in Tokyo!

Imi from UK

 We highly recommend using Hikari Homes, especially if you are a foreigner! My wife and I are from the UK and Kaz foubd us a place within our budget and criteria. Kaz was very helpful in communicating with the owner and us. He can speak English and Japanese, and was very helpful in supporting us with any questions we had and relaying information from the owner. He supported us every step of the way in understanding what we would need to move into a place. I would highly recommend anyone who is moving into Tokyo to definately check out Hikari Homes and if you can, request Kaz. He is very friendly and supportive. THANK YOU KAZ! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

 Finding a place to live in Tokyo is one of the most stressful things imaginable, but Kaz helped make it as pain-free as possible. Keeping my schedule, financial situation, and design aesthetic in mind, he quickly found a place I'm happy to move in to. Thank you!

David from Netherland

 I heartily recommend Kaz to anyone looking for an apartment in Tokyo. Thanks to him I found a great apartment on the very first day we met. Everything went very smoothly. He’s an experienced professional, speaks perfect English, and he is always ready to help with administrative matters and anything else.

Poppy from Australia

 So incredibly helpful and thorough. Kaz Harada from Hikari Homes had come highly recommended from several of our expat friends and I would definitely agree that any non-Japanese speaking expat who is navigating the complex system of finding a rental property in Tokyo to use their services. Very seamless and stress-free.

Joshua from US

 I had a wonderful experience working with Kaz at Hikari homes. When I first moved to Tokyo, I was having a really difficult time finding a place on my own, but was quite nervous to contact a realtor as I wanted to make sure that they would have my best interest in mind. After seeing a recommendation on Reddit for Hikari homes and the glowing reviews for Kaz, I decided to reach out, and just that next weekend we were pouring over potential places at his office. He was always extremely respectful of my criteria, and exceptionally thorough in his search. Even once I had chosen a place, he was communicative, helpful, and quick to reply, and inexpressibly helpful in every facet of the apartment hunting/leasing experience. He was always upfront, honest, and clearly prioritizes you and your needs. He went far above and beyond what I expected out of this process, and made this whole experience as seamless and easy as it can be. I had a top-notch experience, and would highly recommend his services to anyone.

Todd from US

 Highly recommended! Kaz-san watched my target area, alerted me when good places came up, and made renting easy. Cool and thoughtful too. Thank you!

 My husband and I had a great experience working with Kaz Harada in our search for a rental apartment. We are very grateful for the work that he did for us.

Emi from US

 Great communication! Kaz-san helped us with our rental in Tokyo, and from day one he answered every one of our emails quickly and efficiently. He helped us foreigners land a reasonably priced house in Meguro, in the exact district we needed to be in, and navigated us through all the documents and questions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs fast English language real estate help in Tokyo.

Jeff from Canada

 Harada-san was incredibly responsive, professional and patient in assisting us in finding an apartment that had everything that we were looking for in Tokyo!

Adam from Canada

 I'm incredibly grateful that a colleague recommended Kaz to me for the huge project of finding a home in Tokyo. Kaz is a man of action and rescued me from the slow, stuffy agents I had been trying to work with previously. He asked all the right questions to thoroughly understood my needs and within a couple days we were looking at apartments that fit my profile. Through the entire process he was quick to answer questions, flexible when I changed my requirements, and thorough in making sure that everything was done right. If I plan to move again in the future, Kaz will be the first person I get in touch with.

 Harada-san has been ultra-responsive to all my needs. He did not just meet my expectations—he exceeded them! I recommend him to any expat struggling to find a nice place in Tokyo. He helped me in every step of the way. I’d give him 10 starts if I could. Thanks again!
