The light novel series Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!? was first published in 2009 by Takehaya, with Poco illustrating. The novels are published by Hobby Japan in their HJ Bunko imprint, where a manga adaptation by Tomosane Ariike made its way on the publisher’s manga website late last year. To date there have been 15 volumes. There was also an animated PV for the series by Silver Link that released in 2010 and was directed by Shinichi Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop.

Here is a synopsis of the series from MAL:

Due to young Koutarou’s financial circumstances, he is forced to live in a small rokujouma (6-tatami apartment) on a budget of 5000 yen a month. On the plus side, he lives rent-free, but on the minus side, that’s because room 106 of Corona Apartments is cursed. The ghost is a cute young girl, and hijinks ensue when she tries to drive him out. Between the haunting, Koutarou’s nosy neighbors, and a self-styled magical girl flying to the unneeded rescue, there’s way too much for the impoverished young man to handle.

The Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!? anime adaptation will be airing this July in the Summer 2014 anime season. More information and footage of the anime will be out in the upcoming weeks.
