Japanese term
礼金
reikin
Meaning
A non-refundable payment to the landlord made when signing a rental lease, customary in some regions of Japan and absent for many listings. It is separate from the refundable deposit (敷金); whether it applies, and how much, is per-property — verify at the source.
In a sentence
This listing has no 礼金, but the agency still quoted an agency fee and guarantor-company fee.
