A browser extension for SUUMO, GaijinPot Apartments, LIFULL HOME'S, and at home that explains every move-in fee, shows it in yen and dollars, and tells you what's around the building.
Chrome extension — coming soonShikikin, reikin, guarantor fees and more, named in English with what each one is for. Anything the listing leaves out is flagged so you know what to ask.
Amounts in JPY with a USD conversion at the daily reference rate, or your own rate. Room sizes in m² and sq ft.
Station names in English, direct trains to Shibuya, Shinjuku, Tokyo and more, plus the nearest convenience store, supermarket and pharmacy.
Smoovin shows the fees exactly as the listing states them and never estimates. Fees written as “1 month” or “50% of rent” are converted using the listed rent and labeled as calculated. Every portal gets the same two figures: rent + management, and the one-time move-in fees the listing states, never including your first month. Smoovin says which key fees are missing, so a figure is never mistaken for the full cost, and listings from different portals can be compared side by side.
How Smoovin counts →Saved listings and settings live in your browser. Only an approximate location, address or station name is sent to public map services, and only a currency request goes to the exchange-rate service. The Privacy page, linked at the bottom of every page, lists exactly what Smoovin reads, stores and sends.
