30 nights = $149 flat, charged only if you take a place. Sending this costs nothing.

Where

No card, no account. Never a cut of your rent.

The fee

Flat, by length of stay. Charged only if you take a place.

$14914–30 nights

A sabbatical month, or a look before committing to more.

$2491–3 months

Long enough that operators want real paperwork from you.

$3993+ months

Guarantors, utility accounts, and residence registration land here.

Never a percentage of your rent, and no commission from the operator — a ¥70,000 room and a ¥250,000 one cost us the same work, and you're the only party paying us.

Engawa is a translation and coordination service, not a licensed broker or agent. Your accommodation contract is always directly between you and the operator. Buying instead?
