Pros and Cons of Renting Furnished Apartments in Nigeria

In your search for a place to live in Nigeria, have you ever considered looking at furnished apartments? You should know exactly what is provided by a furnished apartment before deciding whether or not to rent one. This allows you to weigh the pros and cons of living in a furnished apartment.

Pros of Renting Apartments with Furniture

You can rent a fully furnished apartment from many houses and apartments that are for rent. Check out the pros of renting one of these apartments.

1. If you are a first-time renter, this could be a great choice because you won't have to spend a lot of money on new furniture.

2. If you still need to buy more furniture and accessories, you can do so easily and without stress.

3. It takes away the trouble of moving furniture when you move.

4. If you want a short-term lease, this is a great option for you.

5. Even though the apartment is already set up, you can still make it your own.

6. It saves you the trouble of running around to find cash or borrowing from family and friends when you are in a very tight financial spot.

Cons of Renting Apartments with Furniture

Even though the idea of a furnished apartment is exciting, there are some things you should know about it. We don't think the real estate agent will tell you about these things, but we will tell you about some of them.

  1. Some furnished apartments only have the basics, like a kitchen table, a bed, and a couple of couches.
  2. The owner put the furniture and other items in the apartment, so they don't come for free. You will pay a lot more than you would have for an apartment without furniture.
  3. The furniture doesn't belong to you. Since this is the case, you will be fully responsible for any damage.
  4. It gives you less room to move your big furniture around.

Conclusion

Your budget, your way of life, and your current demands are the three most important considerations when deciding whether to rent a furnished or unfurnished apartment. Furnished apartments are a great option if you're the type of person who moves around a lot for work or pleasure. However, if you already own a sufficient amount of furniture and don't mind shuffling things around, an unfurnished flat should be fine. Make sure you get a detailed inventory of the flat's furnishings from the landlord before you sign a lease on any fully furnished apartment. You may even request images of the furniture to verify its condition in extreme circumstances.

If you want to get down to the nitty-gritty, compare the monthly cost of a fully furnished apartment to that of an unfurnished one. The next step is to estimate how much money you will need to purchase the additional pieces of furniture. Have you ever been interested in a fully furnished apartment in Nigeria?
