Things to prepare when signing a share house tenancy contract
First, we will introduce the things you will need when signing a tenancy contract for a share house.
Things to prepare when signing a share house tenancy contract
- Information required for housing application (emergency contact information, etc.)
- Identification
- Initial cost
What you need when signing a contract for a share house is almost the same as for a regular rental property.
The management company will give you an application form, so fill out the necessary information and submit it along with your ID.
You will need to submit one type of ID if it has a photo, and two types of ID if it does not have a photo.
For example, you will need to submit one type of ID for a driver's license or passport, and two types of ID for documents that do not have a photo, such as a health insurance card or pension book.
There are two ways to submit your ID: you can show the original of your ID and the other party will make a copy, or you can submit a copy.
Submit it using the method specified by the real estate company.
In the case of XROSS HOUSE, which operates this site, you can apply for a contract online. You can apply without visiting a store by filling out the contract application form on the web, entering the necessary information such as emergency contact information, and uploading an image of your ID.
If you wish to apply from a local or overseas location, please contact XROSS HOUSE, where you can sign a contract online.
It is also important to prepare for initial costs such as rent, common area fees, and contract fees in advance.
The reason is that initial costs require a larger amount of money compared to monthly rent and common area fees.
Additionally, the contract cannot be concluded until the deposit is completed, so to avoid missing out on the property you want to live in, be prepared to make the deposit immediately after passing the screening.
These are the things you need when signing a tenancy agreement for a share house.
Please keep in mind that it is important to prepare all documents by the submission deadline.

Furniture, home appliances, and daily necessities needed to prepare for moving into a share house
Next, we will introduce the furniture, home appliances, and daily necessities that you will need to bring to your share house.
Things you need when moving into a share house
- toiletries
- bath set
- skin care supplies
- cosmetics
- Sanitary items
- towel
- laundry detergent
- clothes
- slipper
- Hanger
- Bedding (Some properties provide futons and mattresses for free.)
- Charger/cable
- If you cook by yourself, seasonings and tableware etc.
Basically, the furniture, home appliances, and daily necessities necessary for daily life are provided in the share house, so as long as you don't forget to take care of yourself, chargers, and cables, you won't have any problems on your first day.
Also, even if the bed is provided in advance, you will often be asked to provide your own bedding, so be careful not to forget this. Of course, there are some properties that come with futons and mattresses, so if you want to reduce the cost of purchasing bedding, please contact your real estate agency to see if they have properties that come with such facilities.
Once you're settled in, you can gradually fill up your room with the things you're missing, such as color boxes, extension cords, and humidifiers, to make your life more fulfilling.
Something that is often overlooked is the small items used in common spaces.
For example, it would be useful to have a storage container with a name on it, such as a resealable storage bag or Tupperware for the kitchen refrigerator.
Also, having a mesh pouch to carry your bath set and a basket to carry your laundry will make your life even more convenient.
In addition to this, it is important to remember to keep essential items such as medicines and stationery handy.

Unnecessary furniture, home appliances, and daily necessities when preparing to move into a share house
Next, we will introduce furniture, home appliances, and daily necessities that are unnecessary when preparing to move into a share house.
Things you don't need when moving into a share house
- refrigerator
- microwave oven
- rice cooker
- electric kettle
- Washing machine (many share houses even have a dryer).
- Vacuum cleaner
- air conditioner
- tv set
- bed
- desk/chair
When you move to a shared house, you basically don't need to prepare any furniture or home appliances.
The advantage of a shared house is that you don't have to spend a lot of money on the kitchen and living room, which are especially well-equipped.
Additionally, many sharehouses come equipped with daily necessities such as cooking utensils, seasonings, and toilet paper for use in the common spaces, so you can keep your living costs down.
Please note that furniture and appliances brought into the share house must be able to be placed in a private room.
When bringing in home appliances, be careful to ensure that the noise emitted by the appliances does not cause noise or cause a fire.

Steps to moving into a share house
So far, we have introduced what you need when signing a contract for a share house, and what you need to bring with you when you move in.
Please use this information as you prepare to move in.
From here, I will briefly introduce the process of moving into a share house.
Steps to moving into a share house
- Search for a property
- Contact the operating company
- Tour the property
- Apply to move in (subject to screening)
- Contract
- move
First, search for a share house on the internet or at a real estate agency.
You can search for a property efficiently by considering the location, rent, and room type (private room, dormitory, etc.).
If you are looking for a property, please contact us on LINE.
When you find a property you are interested in, contact the company that operates the share house and make a reservation for a tour.
Tours are a very important opportunity to learn about the property you will be living in, so if you have time until you move in, please schedule a tour.
After completing the tour, you will apply to move in.
Once you receive the application form from the share house management company, submit it along with your ID by the deadline.
Please note that the items required for the contract vary depending on the operating company, so please prepare according to the instructions of the person in charge.
Please also refer to the ``Things to prepare when signing a contract for a share house'' introduced at the beginning of this article.
The tenant screening process takes about 1 to 3 days, and screenings for shared houses tend to be completed faster than those for regular rentals.
If you pass the screening, you will pay the initial fee and move in after the specified move-in date.
You will need to pack your belongings between the day the contract is signed and the day you move in, so it's a good idea to be prepared with plenty of time.
Do I need to transfer my resident card when moving into a shared house?
Some people may be wondering whether they need to transfer their resident card when moving to a shared house.
In conclusion, even if the period of residence is short, it is necessary to transfer the resident record.
However, if you return to your old address within a year, or if your residence card remains at your parents' home and you return frequently, moving your residence card may be optional. Please check with your local government for details.
If you need to transfer your residence card, don't forget to complete this procedure as well.
