オープニングメンバーとして入居する5つのメリット

Social apartments are exchange-style rental apartments that include a lounge and other "common spaces" in addition to conventional rental housing. It is a lifestyle that allows residents to not only live, but also to form a wide variety of communities, from moderate socializing to close interaction with other residents.

When choosing a place to live, what factors are important to you? Many people may consider commuting access, rent, room size, and the surrounding environment as criteria.

At Social Apartment, in addition to those criteria, you have the option of "moving into a newly opened property.
This time, we would like to introduce "the merit of living as an opening member" which is unique to Social Apartment.

We hope you will find this information useful when considering your future housing options.


(1) It is easy to build a relationship because everyone is new to each other.

Everyone is new to the opening members. When you first show up at the lounge, you may feel a bit nervous..." Everyone is in a state of uncertainty. Everyone is in a state of uncertainty. Because many people are open and willing to expand their connections, it is an environment where "it's nice to meet you" can be exchanged naturally.
The more people who think, "I don't have the courage to speak up for myself...", the more they are psychologically motivated to broaden their connections. The more people who think "I don't have the courage to talk to you," the lower the psychological hurdle may be for them.

(2) You can use brand-new common areas.

Another attraction is that you can use shiny common areas that no one has lived in yet.

New sofas, the latest cooking appliances, large-screen TVs, and clean water facilities. Being able to start in a space where everything is brand new is a privilege that only opening members can enjoy.

In addition, many of our social apartments are renovated from existing buildings, and it is customary to hold previews before opening.
It is only at this time that we are able to witness everything from the construction in progress to its completion. Some properties may be fully occupied before opening.

(3) You can be involved in creating the community atmosphere.

Social apartments have rules and regulations regarding the use of common areas, but the residents themselves create the "color of the community" from there.

Depending on the property, monthly birthday parties, seasonal events, and club activities inspired by hobbies naturally arise. For example, sauna lovers may gather to form a "sauna club," or people in the same line of work may hold study groups.

When no one is living in the building yet, it is also attractive to be involved in the first steps of creating such an atmosphere. It is not uncommon for the smallest idea put forth by an opening member to shape the character of the property.

Some properties hold a Global Agents-sponsored opening party in the early stages of occupancy, providing a natural opportunity for people to get to know each other.

(4) A sense of togetherness unique to opening members is created.

Social apartments at the time of opening have a sense of togetherness that is unique to that time.
Everyone moves in at the same time and is just getting used to the pace of life and the space. The atmosphere is naturally created where people talk to each other, support each other, and create a new lifestyle.

In fact, some of the residents who have experienced being an opening member say that they would like to return to the atmosphere of their first days. A casual conversation in the lounge or the first time they had dinner together. Each of these memories becomes a memory and fosters a special relationship.

It is one of the privileges of being an opening member to be able to experience such a sense of togetherness.

5) Opening privileges to reduce initial costs

Another great benefit is the initial cost discount that is available only before the opening. Discounts are sometimes offered to those who participate in pre-completion previews. (Please see the New Properties page for details.)
For example, Neighbors Yoga, scheduled to open in March 2026, offers the following campaign.

No key money if you apply for a 1-year plan.
If you apply for the 2-year plan, you will receive "No key money + 2 months free rent!

Social Apartment is not only a place to live, but also a value-added lifestyle where you can expand your world through encounters and opportunities. We have established this special offer before opening with the hope that more people will experience it.
Note that the campaign may end after the opening or when the rooms are fully occupied. Please check each property page for details and precautions.


We have introduced the benefits of the "move in as an opening member" option that is unique to Social Apartment.

Experience is the best part of Social Apartment. We believe that living as an opening member will be a more intense experience. It is precisely for those who would like to live in a social apartment someday that I urge you to consider moving into a new property.

You may surely have unexpected encounters and discoveries.
