Hi, currently abroad, I’m planning to stay a year in Japan, finally found an apartment on realestate.co.jp.
I’ve been given the apartment address, pictures and videos. I’ve been sent the rental contract and signed it.
Now I’m being asked to pay for the security deposit, without having visited the place beforehand: is it a common thing in Japan?
I’ve read that it’s not recommended to send anything before seeing the apartment, so it’s currently my main concern. Are every agent listed on realestatejp/gaijinpot reliable and trustworthy?
what should I do? Moving in date expected on the 10th of April
