Your Budget
plays a very huge part in your decision to pick between semi-furnished and
fully-furnished rented apartments. However, while a fully furnished apartment
may appear to be an expensive option, it may actually save you money in this
case.
In this
post, we will discuss both the options and which one will be suitable for you!
Semi Furnished Apartment
A Semi-furnished apartment usually comes with items like fans, lights, kitchen cabinets and wardrobes. Apart from this, you may get additional items depending on the owner, but it is best to keep low expectations on this.
Pros
- You have the freedom to purchase and install whatever furniture and appliances you want.
- An unfurnished apartment will always have a lower rent than one that is furnished.
- You have freedom to design and decorate the home as you wish.
- Because you own the majority of the items in the house, you are not liable to your landlord for any damage to the household items.
Cons
- When you leave your rented apartment, you must transport most of your belongings, which can be difficult, especially if you are moving out of town.
- A semi-furnished place means you’ll have to spend extra money on a variety of household items before you can move in.
Fully Furnished Apartment
A fully furnished apartment has everything you need in your day-to-day life, from a sofa to a table lamp, a bed to a dresser, and even electronic appliances, utensils, and glassware in the kitchen. You could simply walk into one of these apartments with a suitcase containing your personal belongings and start living there.
Pros
- A fully-furnished apartment is equipped with everything; hence, you don’t have to spend time or money on buying things.
- Moving out is simple in fully furnished apartments because there is no need to transport anything.
- A fully-furnished apartment may offer you items that may you have not been able to invest in due to financial limitations
- Fully furnished apartments are the best options for travelling professionals who are obligated to move from one location to another on a regular basis or someone who doesn’t stay in one location for too long. This is due to the fact that many of these apartments do not require a long-term lease, which provides much-needed flexibility when you do not have a permanent residence.
Cons
- A fully furnished apartment will cost you more. For such accommodations, you may need to arrange a larger security deposit.
- Empty spaces may be limited due to the presence of existing furniture and other items.
- Keeping a fully furnished apartment is a liability because the items in the apartment are owned by the landlord.
- You might not have much of a say in how a fully furnished apartment is decorated according to your preferences.
