As a rule you will need a guarantor, who is ideally an established Japanese professional; Japanese people will typically use their father. |
An prensip, w ap bezwen yon moun pou ki bay granti pou ou. Depreferans, yon pwofesyonèl japonè ki deja byen chita nan peyi a. Anjeneral, moun Japon ap itilize papa yo. |
(The idea is that apartments are for younger people, and established people should buy their own place.) |
(Rezon an se paske yo konsidere se jèn moun ki lwe apatman. Moun ki deja etabli ta sipoze gen pwòp kay pa yo.) |
In many cases it is possible to use one’s employer as a guarantor, or instead pay an additional fee to a special guarantor company if this is not acceptable. |
Nan anpil ka, li posib pou yon moun sèvi ak patwon l kòm garanti, oswa, si sa pa akseptab, li ka peye yon konpayi yon frè anplis pou l ka sèvi l kòm garanti. |
If you have young Japanese friends, it is often possible to use their parents, particularly if you have met them already. |
Si w gen jèn zanmi japonè, souvan li posib pou paran yo sèvi w kòm garanti, sitou si w te deja fè konesans ak yo. |
If you use a Japanese friend as guarantor, please remember to give or send a gift, such as some local sweets – this is an expected courtesy. |
Si yon zanmi japonè sèvi w kòm garanti, tanpri sonje ba yo oswa voye yon kado pou yo, tankou ti pwodui lokal ki dous – y ap atann yo a sa. |
Further, pay your rent and do not do anything which may require recourse to your guarantor, particularly when Leaving Japan. |
Mete sou sa, peye lwaye w epi pa fè anyen ki ka antrave mou ki bay garanti pou ou, espesyalman lè w ap kite Japon. |
If you do not have a suitable friend and your employer will not act as guarantor, you have no choice but to use a guarantor company. |
Si w pa gen yon zanmi ki kalifye epi patwon pa vle bay garanti pou ou, ou oblije sèvi ak yon konpayi ki pou bay garanti pou ou. |
If you wish to use your employer as guarantor and the landlord refuses, consider another apartment, as the guarantor company fee is simply wasted money and there are plenty of apartments. |
Si w ta renmen sèvi ak patwon kòm garanti men met kay la refize, panse chache yon lòt apatment, paske frè w dwe peye yon konpayi pou bay garanti pou ou t ap lajan jete alòsje chaje ak lòt apatman. |
Beware that landlords making a fuss over a guarantor (only accepting a Japanese person as guarantor) may actually just not want foreigners, and are using guarantor issues as a way to avoid saying so directly. |
Se pou w sonje, mèt kay ki fè yon pakèt istwa an rapò ak yon moun k ap bay garanti pou ou (kegzije se yon japonè ki pou bay garanti) gen dwa jis pa vle annafè ak etraje, epi yo sèvi ak sa pou yo pa di w sa klè. |
Thus if you have trouble with this, consider interpreting this as a “no foreigners” sign and look elsewhere. |
Kidonk, si w jwenn yon pwoblèm konsa, konsidere sa kòm yon pankat ki make “Etranje kanpe lwen” epi chache lòt kote. |
