A viral video on TikTok has people contemplating quitting their job and moving over to Japan.

Finding a good home basically anywhere is pretty tough.

If by some miracle you manage to find somewhere, have that place be affordable or cheap even? Not a chance.

But one video that has been doing the rounds on TikTok has people considering ditching their current lives to jet off over to Japan.

The clip, posted by Walksoflife11, has been viewed more than 920,000 times and gives a tour of an apartment in Tokyo which is only $300 a month.

Yes, really.

While that might sound too good to be true, some people had to pick their jaws up off the floor once they saw how much space you actually get for that price.

In the video the TikToker explained that it is a 250ft apartment with multiple spacious cupboards for storage as soon as you enter.

There is a bathroom with a sink and toilet, although the bath itself is quite small and it appears that it must be filled with the water from an extended sink tap.

It comes with a kitchen, a single gas stove and a two-tier cabinet.

There is also a living space with windows, a cabinet and a small staircase to the bedroom area.

The TikToker closed by saying the closest train station was only a ten minute walk away.

While it may not have all the bells and whistles, many social media users remarked that it had everything you needed to get by.

They even noted just how expensive a similar apartment would be in the US

“This would still cost over $1800 in nyc. I’d say this was a great deal for Tokyo,” one user commented.

“That ain’t bad for 300. In NYC that’s probably 4 grand with a community bathroom,” another added.

“We need about 10,000 buildings like that in the Bay Area,” joked another user.

“This is 30sq ft bigger than my apt in San Diego and mine costs $2,200. I wish I had a loft bed area too,” a fourth wrote.

“THIS IS PERFECT FOR MEEEE I like smaller spaces because they’re easier to manage and help me stay less cluttered,” said another.

Some people were less convinced however and users who lived in Tokyo said while it is a nice apartment, very few of them come furnished and a tenant would be expected to bring things like a bed and a fridge.

But hey, for $300 a month I’m sure I can make it work.

An apartment block in China has got internet users fixated on its ‘dystopian’ look and impressive facilities, but how much does it actually cost to live there?

There are a lot of people out there who would probably be happy to pay good money if it meant they literally had everything they needed on their doorstep.

Hungry? Take a quick trip down the corridors to the food court. Feel like you’re in need of a quick glow-up? Worry not, the hair salon is only a few doors down.

Sure, you might miss the smell of fresh air, but that’s what windows are for, right?

It might be hard to imagine living a life in which you never need to go outside, but it’s very much a reality for residents of the Regent International, a huge building in Qianjiang Century City, located in Hangzhou’s central business district in China.

Equipped with nail salons, supermarkets, swimming pools and internet cafes, the building is home to around 20,000 residents who live in apartments that take up much of the building.

Though convenience is definitely a plus for those who live in the apartments, a lot of internet users have made clear they’re not clamoring to live there, with one going as far as to describe it as an ‘expensive prison’.

Another raised an important point: “imagine morning rush hour waiting for the elevator.”

That probably wouldn’t be ideal, but whether you consider the building to be a ‘prison’ or a haven of opportunity, how much are people paying to live there?

According to the Chinese news agency Sina, the cost of apartments at the Regent International vary depending on how big they are and what they have to offer.

Smaller apartments without windows typically rent for about 1,500 RMB ($220) per month, while bigger apartments that come equipped with a balcony would set you back about 4,000 RMB ($550) per month.

Sounds pretty good in comparison to the rent prices in the US, doesn’t it?

The building attracts a lot of graduates and soon-to-be graduates, as well as young working professionals like influencers and small business owners.

By removing the need for its residents to go outside, the construction company behind the building, The Broad Group, has explained that the apartments could help keep at least 2,000 cars off the streets.

The Regent International was originally intended to be a boutique six-star hotel before it was repurposed as a residential property.

Located in Qianjiang Century City in Hangzhou’s central business district, the building is called the Regent International, and offers a huge range of amenities to residents.

This includes everything from gyms to supermarkets to swimming pools, and even things like hairdressers.

It’s up to the point that you might not even ever need to leave the building itself to get everything you need in your day-to-day life.

The enormous building has space to accommodate up to 30,000 residents, though it currently houses a slightly lower number of 20,000.

Still, that’s a lot of people living in just one building.

Facilities inside the complex include a massive food court, barber shops, nail salons, supermarkets, swimming pools, and even internet cafes.

Regent International has previously gone viral on social media as a result of TikTok videos about the myriad amenities that it offers to residents.

Now images from a real estate agent show what residents can expect to have while they’re inside the building itself.

The result is some pretty impressive interiors, with flats that have a selection of different layouts.

In addition to this, the interior is also festooned with marble hallways, which give the place a rather luxurious and grandiose feel inside.

Whether it’s somewhere that people might find to be a utopia of convenience, or a dystopian nightmare is something entirely entirely however.

But just how much does it cost to actually live in this enormous complex of apartments?

If you want one of the smaller apartments without windows, yes, no actual windows, then this will set you back less.

These apartments commonly rent for around 1,500 RMB ($220) per month.

But what if you want something with actual sunlight coming in, which would seem understandable.

A larger apartment will come with a balcony, offering a bit of outdoor space as well as that all important sunlight, and can set you back about 4,000 RMB ($550) each month.

It’s not bad at all is it really, all things considered.

But why have so many amenities inside?

Well, the construction company which built the complex, called The Broad Group, explained that this is to do with reducing traffic levels.

The company has estimated that the building will keep at least 2,000 cars off the streets by removing residents’ need to travel long distances for their amenities.

It’s aimed at graduates and students who are close to graduating, and is also popular with young professionals including influencers, as well as people who own small businesses.
