However, there are several pros and cons of a furnished rented place that we have listed below:
Saving money: In case of a furnished place for rent, the tenants need not worry about buying new furniture or spend their money on shifting the existing ones. Also, you can say goodbye to the thought of wear and tear of furniture during shifting.
Move quickly: The tenants can move quickly if they get a furnished accommodation as in that case the tenants do not have to think about the pain of packing and unpacking. This can be a very good option for those who move on a regular basis such as shifting cities for job purpose.
Shorter rent duration: Those who look for a rented place for a short period of time, furnished accommodation are the right option. For instance, a businessman who needs to travel frequently and stay for a short brief period then a furnished place works well with him or her.
A bit expensive: The concept of furnished rented accommodation is good but as nothing comes for free in this world, hence the cost for renting a fully furnished place is much costlier as compared to the semi or a non- furnished unit. And due to ready-made furniture available the security deposit is comparatively on a higher side as the cost will include the wear and tear of the furniture.
Maintenance of the furniture: Although the tenants are getting furniture along with the property, but it becomes a liability of the tenants to maintain them. They have to ensure that the furniture does not get damaged when they move out of the apartment. And if the furniture gets damaged or even it has a small scratch, then the tenants are liable to bear the cost. Hence the tenants should click pictures or make a video of the furniture before they move into the apartment. This can be a good proof if the landlord tries to ask for more money or cut the security deposit during the refund.
Less option available in the market: It is not easy to find a furnished rented accommodation as not many landlords invest in such place. So those who usually look for such option do not get many options to choose from. The tenants have to satisfy themselves with fewer ones.
