SAKURA HOUSE Co.,ltd
Reviews and Complaints

Sakura House is a real estate agency that rents old apartments to foreigners in Tokyo. Most apartments are overpriced, but as most real estate agencies in Tokyo discriminate against all foreigners, this is one of the few options for the average ex-pat.

The housing complex where I live is more than 25 years old. All apartments are rented from a landlady, and sublet via Sakura House.

Aloe Heights used to cost 105, 000 yen (about US$ 1, 200 per person per month) to live in this old place. Recently Sakura House has lowered the price of the other tenants to 90, 000. (roughly US$ 900, 000). As I am an old resident here, I requested the same, equal fair price for my place as well.

Typically of all Japanese, they refuse to even talk about it. My options are either leave, or start posting the facts about this place: TATAMI floors are rotten, SCREEN WINDOWS are shreded, WASHLET is broken in the toilet room, WINDOWS SHUTTERS are broken... Just to start with. They still REFUSE to even recognize a simple e-mail requesting FAIR PRICING policity.

All of this can be witnessed via their website: http://www.sakura-house.com/english/premise/aloe.php

Will they even bother to reply?
