Definitely. A foreigner can rent an apartment anywhere in Saitama. There are a lot of spots offering apartments to foreigners and that includes Village House. The costs depend on the size of the apartment so make sure you know your budget for the rent. Most apartments you will find here are 2K. These types of apartments tend to be smaller / cheaper than any other type, and these are usually what a single foreigner typically rents in Saitama. But if you want a bigger space, some options worth considering include 3BR (3 bedrooms and 2 bathroom flat) as well as 1LDK (1-room with dining, living, and kitchen areas). Ultimately, apartment rental remains a popular pick for accommodations when living in Japan’s major cities and towns for the first time.
Kindly note that all foreigners and Japanese citizens would need to go through a credit check to rent an apartment in Japan. Feel free to contact your team if you require assistance.
*Dependent on the credit check results and contract details, a deposit may be required.
