礼金なし

敷金: 1か月分

List the fees that are required:

Next month’s rent  (来月分の家賃) :   5万円 = 50000 yen

Management fee (管理費) :  3千円= 3000 yen

Key money ( 礼金) : なし = 0

Deposit  (敷金) : 1か月分 (one month’s rent)  = 50000 yen

Handling charge ( 手数料) :  1か月分 (one month’s rent) = 50000 yen

In total: 50000 + 3000 + 50000 + 50000 = 153000 yen (15万3千円)
