Hi All,
Been a while.
Can anybody recommend a good area that is within 30minutes by foot of Ebisu?
Preferably an area where I can find a 2ldk (+70sqm) for <250y/month?
Thoughts? Ideas? Is it doable?
Secondary to the above, parks are ideal (I like to jog).
Plenty of cheap eats and mid-range food options are also a big plus (nearly a must have to be honest).
I'm open to any recommendation of housing agencies that you can recommend, as well.
Thanks in advance and feedback is appreciated. |

Btw, if a 30 minute walk isn't doable, than a 15-20 minute train ride would also be an option. |

Less than Y250 per month might be a little tricky. Want to help and tell us if you meant "less than 25,000" or "less than 250,000". Unless you really did mean less than Y250, in which case even I can tell you that you might be in for a wee shock.
Have you tried any of the hundreds of real estate websites? |

Hah. Sorry, that's 250k.
Firstly, I've tried some of the ones geared towards foreigners, but I'm guessing they are adding a premium cushion to the prices (some don't even have the option to select under 250k).
Secondly, even if I do see a site, I haven't the slightest idea if it is reputable or not (so I really welcome suggestions).
Lastly, even beyond that, that doesn't tell me much in the way of whether an area is a good place or not. I understand liking a place is a personal opinion, but that is exactly what I'm asking for - people's opinions (again, suggestions).
Any suggestions you or anybody else may have are very welcome.
If it isn't a doable, than that too is okay - but then at least I know what I'm looking at and getting into a bit. |

Personally, I like minimini more because I find it easier to use, but YMMV. |
The catch is that minimini is a chain whereas chintai.net is simply a site with listings from every chain. |

What's the catch? They wanted apartment listings. |
