Mycat Inc. (Headquarters: Meguro-ku, Tokyo) has newly released the "Move-out Cost Rip-off Checker" (https://taikyo.xyz/tools/bottakuri-checker) within its AI-powered move-out cost assessment service, "Move-out Cost Overpayment Diagnosis" (https://taikyo.xyz).
Move-out Cost Troubles: The Current Situation Where You Have No Choice But to Pay If You Don't Know The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) has published "Troubles and Guidelines Regarding Restoration to Original Condition," clearly stating that normal wear and tear (deterioration over time and wear from normal use) is, in principle, the landlord's responsibility. However, the National Consumer Affairs Center of Japan receives numerous consultations annually regarding security deposits and restoration to original condition at the time of move-out, and there are countless cases where people accept high charges without even knowing about the existence of the guidelines. Especially for first-time movers or single individuals, they often lack criteria to judge whether the amount stated in the estimate is appropriate, and tend to feel that they "have no choice but to pay what they are told."
Three Features of the "Move-out Cost Rip-off Checker" 1. Instantly compare estimated amount and appropriate amount: By simply entering the estimated move-out cost, room size, years of residence, and floor plan, it compares with the MLIT guideline standards for the appropriate amount. It displays "how many yen you are overpaying" numerically. 2. Score the rip-off degree: The deviation rate from the appropriate amount is clearly displayed as a "rip-off degree" score. This can be used as a basis for negotiation. 3. Itemized breakdown check: It determines whether each item, such as wallpaper replacement, house cleaning, and tatami mat replacement, is within the appropriate range.
How to Use 1. Access the Move-out Cost Rip-off Checker (https://taikyo.xyz/tools/bottakuri-checker) 2. Enter conditions such as estimated move-out cost, room size, years of residence, and floor plan. 3. Check the comparison results with MLIT guideline standards and the rip-off degree score.
Future Developments "Move-out Cost Overpayment Diagnosis" will continue to develop and release practical tools to help tenants make appropriate judgments, aiming to eliminate the information gap regarding move-out expenses.
