Kaz is a very knowledgeable agent and gives great advice throughout the entire process. You can easily see that he has great relationships with the real estate companies that he is dealing with and he is very thorough in the closing process as well, making sure that your move goes smoothly. I highly recommend him as it is difficult to find fully bilingual agents with this deep knowledge & connections.

Kaz was incredibly helpful, practical, and resourceful.  He thoughtfully listened to my requirements, walked me through my options, and efficiently helped me find my own home in Tokyo.  I would highly recommend him to anyone!

"Kaz-san was extremely helpful in finding an apartment for me in Tokyo. I was not sure what I really wanted until I had seen a few places and he was very patient with my search. He is very aware of any concerns or challenges anyone who is unfamiliar with Tokyo might encounter and offers very useful and solid advice. I would highly recommend Kaz-san to anyone who needs to find a place in Tokyo."

We moved to Japan without having any Japanese skills, so apartment hunting was a challenging task we had to face it. Luckily we found Kaz googling Rental Agencies. Kaz is an exceptional professional. He goes the extra mile to make sure his clients are happy and comfortable with their new homes. At our first meeting, he spent some time understanding our needs and daily habits to make sure he would find some options in the best area within our budget. It's hard to believe but on our first day going out to visit some units we found the right place!! In less than two weeks we moved to the new apartment with a smooth process, and everything clearly explained and translated by Kaz. He made sure we had no questions and were aware of all the bureaucracies moving into a new apartment has in Japan. We strongly recommend Kaz and his services to anyone with or without Japanese language skills. Thank you for all you job and time with us, Kaz!

"Thank to Kaz, I was able to find an apartment in a very short time!
The Japanese administrative process can be really complicated and time consuming, but Kaz made it smooth!
Also, his english is perfect and the way he communicates is very efficient.
Thank you!"

"Kaz is very knowledgable about the Tokyo market and knows the issues that the foreign community will be concerned about. He prepares well and is open to being flexible to make sure all parties are happy with his service. He responds quickly and is professional in his actions. I would recommend him for foreigners and Japanese alike when looking for a place in Tokyo.

My experience with Hikari Homes was very positive. Kaz, my agent, was very helpful and he worked hard to find me a suitable apartment that met my requirements. He was friendly when answering my questions and I am grateful for all of his hard work. I would highly recommend Kaz and Hikari Homes!

"Harada-san is a wonderful realtor and an even better person. He always gets back to you quickly; to call him helpful is an understatement - he found me an apartment in my budget, quickly and efficiently. For anyone (foreigner or otherwise) who is looking for an apartment in the Tokyo area, you can't get better than Harada-san. Truly an excellent experience, excellent man, and a great apartment. I highly recommend him - you will be infinitely happy you had Harada-san helping you!

Getting an apartment in Japan can be very difficult if you don`t speak the language fluently.
 Kaz speaks great English and will do all the hard work for you.  He showed me a lot of different apartments until I found one I liked.  
He explains the contract process clearly and tells you exactly what you need to know.  The whole process was straightforward thanks to Kaz and I would definitely use him again if I were to move again in the future.

A friend recommended Kaz to help us buy a home in Tokyo. She was right. Working with Kaz was a great experience. He listened carefully to our requirements and helped us find a great place in just a few weeks. He helped us find a very good deal on a mortgage. He always responded to questions and emails promptly. He was personable and calm even under pressure. We would absolutely recommend working with Kaz and Hikari Home.
