Property search can be a strenuous task. The right house in the right place and at the right cost is difficult to come by. But then you throw in the desire for furnished apartments and the search field narrows significantly if you don’t know where to look. So is it really worth the hassle or the cost? Today we look into whether to go for a fully furnished apartment when looking for a new home.
Type of Furnishings
Every article in a furnished apartment may not be to your liking. This should go without saying, but as this will be your home for at least a little while, it is important that you love your setting. The perspective of things being useful or practical and sense of style are very subjective matters. Another point to keep in mind is whether the furnishings are comfortable for you and for your family. Some furnishings need to be comfortable while others need to be effective for your needs. Also for owners who want a pet-friendly apartment, it is good to keep the needs of your pet in mind when deciding on signing the deal.
Level of furnished apartment
Furnishing is really a matter of personal preference. Therefore, the landlord’s idea of furnishing and yours may not always be on the same level. Sometimes a fully furnished apartment for rent is equipped with a wonderful kitchen setup featuring great home décor ideas, like this extravagant apartment in Bashundhara. Others, though, can come with only basic articles like a bed and a few chairs. How much do you really need? Is there space to add pieces of your in case you find something you want to buy? Can you move around freely and comfortably? Can you move around things you need? So many questions that need consideration. We have to also keep in mind that the level of furnishing is often a sign of the expected purpose of the stay and can drastically affect the price of rent.
Space for your own furniture
The level of furnishing should add another level of thought to your decision making; is there room for your existing furniture? We love fully furnished apartments, like this apartment in Banani that are already fitted with articles that make the place beautiful. This often makes us overlook how much furniture we will be bringing with us which can then lead to poor interior design. Large rooms can often end up feeling very congested if not planned well, but we do have a few tips that can help make any small room look bigger. Sometimes we need a furnished apartment with only the basics so we can customise our home effectively. Often times you’ll find yourself liking the furniture available, but not where they are. You may want to rearrange the place only to discover space is in short supply. This shortage of space can take place even before your own furniture is taken into account. Take stock of the furniture you already own and plan out their placement when you visit a fully furnished apartment. You wouldn’t want to say a surprise goodbye to your favourite sofa set, would you?
Purpose and feasibility in the long run
Have you asked yourself why you’re looking for a fully furnished apartment rather than a regular apartment? Fully furnished apartments are great for people staying small tenures; either for business purposes or short trips. But there are still those that look for furnished apartments with the idea of staying for a long time. Though fully furnished apartments can be incredibly beautiful, they can end up being costly. Sometimes, the cost of renting out a fully furnished apartment can exceed the cost of purchasing your own furniture if the stay becomes too long. So do keep in mind why you want a furnished apartment for rent and if it is the right choice for you.
policies of Furnished apartments
Landlords of furnished apartments come in many forms, from very lenient to very strict. As such, their policies can vary greatly. Many will allow you to make small modifications to their settings. Perhaps you don’t want a particular piece of furniture. Your landlord might be helpful enough to move it out of the way for you. Others may, however, expect you to keep everything exactly where you found it. Another thing to keep in mind is breaking and replacement policies. Accidents can occur, but who will cover the damages? You can expect policies like full replacement by the landlord if something malfunctions. But sometimes the landlord may ask you to pay or make a replacement if something breaks under your occupation. It is very important to be familiar with and to agree with the policies in place before deciding on a furnished apartment for rent like this cosy apartment in Gulshan.
Beauty, effectiveness and practically all have to come together in order to create a wonderful home. Fully furnished apartments provide a great place ready to live in. But there are many things to look at before deciding on taking these often beautifully designed places. The most important question to focus on is whether the place is suitable for you. Just keep these factors in mind when you’re looking for a new place to live and you can’t go wrong.
