How do I view a SOHO Plaza office in Nagoya?

Accepted Answer

Enquire against the listing you are interested in and a broker will arrange a viewing with SOHO Plaza, usually within a day or two. Viewings are free.

With only eight workspaces listed across the six Nagoya buildings, availability moves quickly, so give your headcount and start date when you enquire.

A SOHO Plaza office averages JPY 38,462 per desk per month across the eight private offices listed in Japan, all of them in Nagoya. The figure for a particular room varies with its size and building.

Does SOHO Plaza offer private offices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All eight SOHO Plaza workspaces listed in Japan are private offices, spread across six buildings in Nagoya. SOHO Plaza says its rental offices are lockable rooms for one to six people, supplied with a desk, chair and cabinet.

Every listed building is furnished and air conditioned and records 24/7 access, so a small company can start work immediately.

Does SOHO Plaza have a virtual office?

Accepted Answer

SOHO Plaza says it offers a virtual office with a business address from about 8,000 yen a month, including mail handling, with telephone services as options. Virtual offices are not among the eight workspaces listed here, which are all private offices, so ask SOHO Plaza directly about address plans.

Mail handling and reception services are recorded at all six listed buildings.

Question 7

Are meeting rooms available at SOHO Plaza?

Accepted Answer

SOHO Plaza says meeting rooms and coworking space are available at selected buildings alongside its rental offices. Confirm with the building whether a room can be booked and at what hourly rate, because that differs by location.

All eight SOHO Plaza workspaces listed in Japan are private offices, and every one of the six listed buildings is furnished, air conditioned and records a business lounge.

Accepted Answer

Every SOHO Plaza building listed in Japan is furnished and air conditioned, and records 24/7 access, a kitchen, reception services, mail handling, printing facilities, a business lounge and disabled access.

SOHO Plaza says its offices come with high-speed internet, reception assistance, mail and parcel handling and shared office equipment, with the details differing by building.

Question 9

Can one person rent an office at SOHO Plaza?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SOHO Plaza says its rental offices start with rooms for a single person and run up to rooms for four to six, which suits sole traders and small companies in Nagoya. Eight private offices are listed here across six buildings.

Every listed building is furnished, so there is nothing to buy or organise before moving in.

Question 10

How long is a SOHO Plaza contract?

Accepted Answer

Terms run from a single month to 12, 24 months or longer, depending on the building and the room. Small rental offices are commonly taken month to month with a notice period, while a company wanting a fixed cost for a year or more can usually agree a longer term.

Ask which deposit and renewal conditions apply before signing anything.
