From the perspective of tenants, one of the benefits of living in a co-living space is that it comes fully furnished. An apartment that is move-in ready saves tenants the time and hassle of hunting for furniture.
So if you’re a landlord of a co-living apartment, your apartment needs to have all the necessary furniture, appliances, fittings and accessories for your tenants to have a comfortable living environment.
Besides the basics, an apartment that is tastefully furnished can not only increase its appeal but also allow you to negotiate for a higher asking rental.
If you’re a first-time co-living landlord, here’s a simple checklist on how to furnish your co-living space for rent.
