I am Uyghur. I was born and raised in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, but have studied and worked in several different countries over the past 17 years, including personally visiting more than 20 countries. From the experience of overseas marketing, getting used to living abroad and the global eye of a Travel Agency Manager, I am passionate about offering my services from renting apartments to buying or selling real estate in Tokyo.

Buying and renting an apartment in Tokyo can be challenging and stressful for foreigners, but I'm here to make it easy with the right information and professional assistance. My passion has always been to help people in any way I can and I believe my experience will help you find your safe and comfortable home in Tokyo.

As a foreigner who has lived abroad for a long time, you can be sure that I will understand your thoughts and feelings better. Therefore, if you have any questions regarding the real estate market in Japan, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Services available in English, Japanese, Turkish, Chinese and Uyghur language.

Client Testimonials

" We searched for an apartment for many months and dealt with numerous real estate agents. We can honestly state that Rukiye Tohti was by far the most pro-active, diligent, responsive agent we had the pleasure of working with. Whilst other agents would show us a few properties and if we did not see anything we liked then simply never called back. Rukiye never gave up on us. She actively engaged us and kept us updated on new listings and was always responsive to any questions we had in a timely manner. Moving to Japan can be an extremely challenging experience. Having a friendly, effective and efficient agent as Rukiye makes a big difference. Thank you again, Ruyike, for all your efforts. We greatly appreciated it!" - Happy family From USA


" Rukiye was so easy to work with. She was so patient and worked so hard to help me find my dream apartment. I had a pretty tight budget for the region I wanted to live in: which was in between Shinjuku, Shibuya, Shimo Kitazawa, and within walking distance of Yoyogi Park. I also had very strict criteria about the apartment I wanted. Despite all of this, Rukiye pulled through and helped me get my dream apartment! So happy with the apartment I chose, and so lucky to have found an apartment that cost wise was significantly lower than everything else in the surrounding area. I totally recommend Rukiye to any foreigner looking for a great apartment in Tokyo. She won't BS you and will work hard to help you find exactly what you want! " - Dennis From USA


" Renting an apartment in Japan as a foreigner can be a challenge on its own. But finding exactly what you are looking for, it's even harder. Rukiye was so helpful, supportive and informative during the whole process. We were able to get the apartment we fell in love for, even though the chances of approval were minimal. Rukiye guided us through the whole process and went above and beyond. She is a very hard worker agent who became our friend. Thank you so much " - Thais & Tim From Brazil & Netherlands


" Being a foreigner in japan is sometimes not easy! My family and I weren't sure how we were going to find a place here who could communicate with us in English! We ask around to some of friends who introduce us to Itera international Real Estate! From start to finish this company was amazing! Our agent Rukiye is one of a kind! With us not being from Japan we didn't understand how the process went to rent a place. We were so overwhelmed, but she went above and beyond to help comfort us in every way! She not once put pressure on any situation that may have come up during this process! Rukiye would just tell us it's going to all work and she was fighting hard for us! Because of her effort we finally have a place we can call home here in Japan! What I loved most about this entire process is that we were fortunate to have someone like Rukiye in our corner who simply believed with us! So thank you to Rukiye and the entire staff for your hard work in helping me and my family find a home. " - Robert, Gabrielle and Haley From USA


" When we first arrived in Tokyo, we worked with several real estate brokers from the long-established firms accustomed to working with expats. However, they consistently provided us with limited choices that didn't meet our criteria.Then we found Rukiye and everything changed. Rukiye's work ethic is second to none. It is an understatement to say that she is arguably the hardest-working agent in Tokyo! She was incredibly pro-active and listened to our needs. She was a fantastic communicator, always available to answer questions and so incredibly patient while we searched for the ideal home for our family.We would work with her again without hesitation and will be recommending her to everyone we know who is either moving to Tokyo or relocating within the city. " - Danielle & Alex, NYC


" We always wanted to buy somewhere in Japan and IREA KK and especially Rukiye-San made our dream a reality. We landed in Tokyo on 20th Jan and on 24th Feb we got the keys to our apartment, even as foreigners and even on a tourist visa! How is that for efficiency?!We contacted Rukiye from a listing on Suumo after we arrived in Japan and told her what we wanted. Our needs were quite specific and we needed a pet friendly apartment so our options were limited. But Rukiye worked tirelessly to check listings and find options for us. We arranged our first viewings on 26th Jan.If we went into a place and it was a bit rubbish she would instantly tell us. There was no ‘agent bs ‘ trying to make it fit our needs if she knew it didn't. Whilst we originally said Yokohama was where we wanted to be we found a listing that was in Asakusa and asked Rukiye to arrange a viewing. The next day we had a viewing confirmed along with 3 others in the area. It turned out the apartment we sent was the one for us. Rukiye did everything in her power to get us that apartment and despite another being put in place she fought for us to get it and our offer was accepted.A month later we have the keys and wow we are so happy. Rukiye is fluent in both English and Japanese so made everything so simple. She is so full of life and energy that I honestly believe anything is possible with her. Any slight hurdle we had to cross (eg British embassy doesn't issue proof of address so we had to get a notary instead) Rukiye helped us through it. Without her I'm not sure what we would have done. If you are looking for An agent who genuinely cares about what you want and your needs then go no further than speaking to Rukiye. She really will make the whole process so simple. Thanks so much from Natalie, David and Wylie Westie x " - Natalie & David From UK ,Buyer


" Thank you for being patient and persistent with me, Rukiye; I couldn't have done this without you!
When it comes to finding an apartment I want to live in, I am very particular, dare I say “a perfectionist”…which probably makes me an agent's worst nightmare. I looked for a place for 4+ months with Rukiye and she stuck with me throughout the entire process, despite my very specific criteria. There was one moment I almost signed on a place, but Rukiye could sense my hesitancy, and she encouraged me to reconsider it because it needs to be a place I want to live. I decided to back out and finally found a place I love, and I couldn't be happier!" - Mr. Jack From U.S.A


" I am happy to have met Rukiye and would recommend her services to anyone. As we had a brief window to look for an apartment, Rukiye found an apartment that met our requirements really quickly despite the typical challenges foreigners face when looking for a place. She was easy to talk to and offered great advice on property search. She followed up with process really closely and swiftly once we found an apartment, making sure we were able to receive the keys without any issues. We were able to move in within 2 weeks from the first time we saw the apartment." - Mr. Shahrin From Singapore


" Rukiye helped me find a perfect place to live with my husband and 2 cats. It was a really tough mission for Rukiye to find a place that met the requirements, so I really appreciate all the efforts she spent to find the perfect place. I had a really great experience, they made every step clear and also supported me with the first steps. I don't have words to describe how grateful I am. I highly recommend RE/MAX Amistad services." - Erika From Brazil


" Rukiye is the Best Real Estate Agent we've dealt with ever!
As it is annoyingly difficult and frustrating to find an apartment as a foreigner, Rukiye san uses the right approach with management companies and makes it happen in a very short period of time.
We contacted her before we arrived in Japan. She is answering emails extremely quickly, giving us updates all the time and keeping in touch on a daily basis. She understood very well what we are looking for and sent us options exactly within the criteria we wanted. With her help we moved into our new home in a week.
We can't thank her enough for what she's done for us. Would always work with her again!" - Ms. S From Malaysia


" 条件にこだわりがあって、簡単に部屋が決まらないだろうと思い、希望を伝えたら、あっという間に紹介してくれました!
日本語も上手で、細かい質問にも丁寧に答えていただき信頼ができ、無事契約となりました。
また、入居して直ぐに鍵を無くしたのですが、管理会社に即連絡いただき鍵の再発行でした。部屋探しから入居までスムーズで素敵な担当者さんと出会え、引越しする人には是非紹介したいと思います。
この度は本当にお世話になりました。
I was meticulous about the conditions and thought that it would not be easy to decide on a room. I explained my wishes to Rukiye and she immediately found the options.
Her Japanese is very good. She was reliable and carefully answered even small questions. Thanks to her, we signed a contract in a short time.
I also lost the key right after I moved in, but Rukiye immediately contacted the management company and figured it out.
She was quick and very nice. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to move.
Thank you very much for your help this time." - MS TSUKAMOTO FROM JAPAN


" We consider ourselves lucky to have worked with her.
My wife and I had just moved to Tokyo and we had a brief window of time to find an apartment.
It can be a pretty draining experience when you are new to it.
Rukiye really helped us a lot in this process by understanding our needs and finding a lot of options that seemed suitable for us.
She was also extremely available to discuss, analyses and visit multiple places until we found the right one.
She is reliable, friendly and was very quick in setting up the paperwork and utility contracts arrangements. George, Romania" - George From Romania


" It was great working with Rukiye. She was very responsive and quickly answered any questions I had. On top of that, she was very nice and positive, as well as professional throughout the entire process. Her Japanese is also extremely fluent so she has no trouble working with Japanese clients and management companies as well. she helped and handled a lot of the administrative process even after finding the room (such as setting up gas, water, electricity), and explained a couple things after. I would highly recommend Rukiye and the team, especially if you are a foreigner or it is your first time coming to Japan and looking for a new place to stay in. She definitely goes above and beyond expectations. I hope to work with her in the future as well."


" My experience with Rukiye was amazing. Other Agencies had told me, that finding a place for me is super hard, as I am a Freelancer and Foreigner. After 3 Months of looking for a place I finally send an E-Mail to Rukiye and with her helped moved into a beautiful apartment only 2 weeks later. She is quick, reliable, friendly and has a great understanding of Japanese business culture. Would always work with her again!" - Mr. H from German
