In Switzerland, the rental market is particularly dense and competition between landlords to attract tenants is intense. One of the best ways to make your property more attractive is to furnish it attractively. With SherlockHomes, you can manage your furnished rental effectively and quickly attract quality tenants. But how do you furnish your flat for rental?
Furnishing your flat with taste will often be a major asset in attracting tenants. It's ideal for tenants who are looking to move in quickly or who want to avoid the cost and effort of buying their own furniture. At the same time, a nicely furnished flat can help potential tenants visualise how they can use the space and better plan their future.
Before you start furnishing your flat, it's a good idea to understand your target market. Don't hesitate to ask about rental market prices, whether your property is in Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg or elsewhere in Switzerland. For example, if you're renting to students, durable and functional furniture is a better option. For expatriate professionals, a more modern and sophisticated style will often be more appropriate.
The must-have items for furnishing your flat include comfortable, high-quality furniture for the living room, a well-equipped kitchen, quality bedding for the bedrooms, and practical, compact storage units. Remember not to overload the space with too much furniture, to avoid cluttering up the flat and making it look smaller than it actually is.
Fitting mirrors will help to make the rooms appear larger, and using light colours will tend to brighten up the space. Furnishing your flat will involve creating a welcoming atmosphere by using warm colours, soft lighting, and adding a few personal touches, such as plants or œworks of art.
Budget is a key factor when furnishing your flat. Try to strike a balance between the cost of the furniture and its quality. There are many furnishing options available, from second-hand furniture shops to high-end furniture shops to furniture rental… You also have the option of using professional interior designers for bespoke furnishing advice !
