The top is "separate bath and toilet". "Separate bath and toilet" is a floor plan in which the bathroom and toilet are installed in independent spaces.
Why is this condition the number one? Let's take a look at the voices of people who chose the "separate bath / toilet" property.
Voices of people who chose the "separate bath / toilet" property
"Because there is no need to take measures against humidity" (22-year-old woman)
"The floor and toilet paper do not get wet" (36-year-old man)
"You can put toilet supplies in the toilet" (33-year-old woman)
If the bath and toilet are integrated, moisture will remain in the toilet after using the bath, so diligent measures are required. However, if the bath and toilet are separate, you do not have to worry about the humidity from the bath. Many people find it easy to manage because it is less susceptible to mold.
Another reason for its popularity is that it is easy to soak in the bathtub, that you can rent a toilet with peace of mind even when you are visiting, and that there is a storage space.
Special feature on rental by bath and toilet"2nd floor and above" ranked in 2nd place. Let's see why.
Voices of people who chose properties on the second floor and above
"Because I thought it would be better to go upstairs for safety" (34-year-old woman)
"Because I can't look into the room from the road" (37-year-old woman)
The reason for its popularity was that it emphasized security.
The number of floors of the property affects the comfort of living and the sunlight. Properties on the second floor and above not only have the advantage of "security in terms of security," but also have the advantages of "easy to secure sunlight" and "less risk of invasion of unpleasant pests than on the first floor."
Special feature on rentals on the second floor and above"There is a parking lot" ranked in 3rd place is an item that makes a difference depending on the area and lifestyle. If you do not select "Parking available", you may find a property you like, or you may have no parking lot and give up crying. You can rent a parking lot nearby, but you may find it inconvenient to walk there.
Therefore, there are people who place importance on the condition that "there is a parking lot", mainly for those who are "far from the station" and "want to use a car for commuting".
Rental feature with parking lot, garage and garageThe 4th place was "air conditioner". Many rental properties are equipped with air conditioners from the beginning, which is a condition that is easily emphasized due to economic merits. Let's take a look at the opinions of the people who actually borrowed it.
Voice of a person who chose a property with "air conditioner"
"Air conditioners are expensive to buy, and troublesome when moving" (35-year-old man)
"Because it was a new air conditioner, utility costs are kept down" (39-year-old woman)
If you try to install a new air conditioner, you will have to pay the purchase cost. In addition, we must consider the labor and cost of installation and removal. For this reason, many people prefer a property that has an air conditioner from the beginning.
Also, if the built-in air conditioner is new, it will save on utility bills. In order to reduce running costs, not only the presence or absence of an air conditioner, but also the energy saving function is important.
Air-conditioned rental feature"Pet consultation is possible" is a property where pets are allowed to be raised in consultation with the landlord. Due to the growing popularity of pets, many people seem to be able to meet the conditions.
When raising pets in a rental property, permission from the landlord or management company is required not only for dogs and cats, but also for small animals such as hamsters.
If raised without permission, there is a possibility that problems may develop later due to indoor odors, scratches, and noise. If you are thinking of keeping a pet, be sure to choose a pet-friendly property.

By referring to the conditions that were emphasized by those who actually searched for a rental property, it will help you to decide what items should be prioritized when searching for a room.
From here, let's look at the characteristics of the main conditions and why they are likely to be emphasized.
Search for rent from recommended featuresIf you try to meet all the facilities and conditions, the rent will be high. In order to achieve the ideal within the budget, it is important to prioritize the conditions and equipment.
When renting a rental property, it is basic to start with "rent setting" so that you can pay stably and reasonably. The standard rent is "less than one-third of the take-home income." First, let's set an upper limit based on the current income situation.
The next thing I want to think about is "location." Depending on the conditions, it may be possible to add or devise later, but the location cannot be changed. Check the distance and route to your commute to work / school, and whether there are supermarkets, hospitals, or public facilities in the vicinity where you can buy daily necessities.
Once you have decided on the rent and rough location conditions, let's think about the "floor plan". Regarding the floor plan, considering the two points of "size" and "floor plan type", the conditions can be arranged smoothly.
According to the "Basic Plan for Living Life (National Plan)" published by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, the minimum required area for living alone is "25 m2 or more". First of all, let's consider whether you want to secure more space than the general size or whether there is no problem with the average size based on this number. By the way, 25m2 is the size of a studio or 1K in terms of floor plan.
Unit: square meter
Alone | 2 people | 3 persons | 4 people | |
Minimum living area level | twenty five | 30 | 40 | 50 |
Induction living area level (Urban residence type) | 40 | 55 55 | 75 | 95 |
Induction living area level (General type) | 55 55 | 75 | 100 | 125 |
* Reference: "Housing Life Basic Plan (National Plan)"
The conditions introduced earlier are items that are generally called "discerning conditions". While adding it will make you more comfortable to live in, it may also increase your rent and narrow your choice of properties. Organize your priorities, such as "things you can't give up" and "things you're happy to have".
Next, I would like to introduce three convenient functions that allow you to efficiently search for the ideal room.
The "search function based on the conditions you want to fulfill" is a function that allows you to easily narrow down the properties that meet your requirements simply by entering the "conditions you want to improve." Unlike a normal search system, the advantage is that you can find the room you want smoothly without setting conditions from scratch.
How to use Holmes' new function "Search by the conditions you want to fulfill" ... You can search for a stress-free room in 2 easy steps.
It is a function that automatically narrows down the desired room by inputting the property you currently live in and adjusting the conditions and area. If you like the room you live in but want to improve the conditions a little, or if you want to find similar properties in other areas, you can use this function to find properties smoothly. increase.
Search based on the current room
"Search by tag" is a function that automatically narrows down properties based on keywords that include conditions. The theme of the tag is very wide, from the ones related to location and cost such as "first train station (○○ line)" and "total initial cost free", "I want to be surrounded by clothes", "I want to challenge the kitchen garden", "home training bias" There are various things related to lifestyle.
Search by tags that meet the lifestyle you want
For those who have not decided on the desired conditions or the conditions that cannot be handed over, knowing the popular conditions and equipment is one of the factors to judge. It's a good idea to start by thinking about which ones you want to incorporate and which ones you don't have to prioritize.
