Yes, you can rent out a furnished apartment through Bofrid. Many tenants actually prefer furnished rentals, especially for shorter rental periods.
Advantages of Furnished Rentals
Furnished apartments are particularly attractive to:
- International workers and students arriving in Sweden
- People who need temporary housing between moves
- Business travelers needing longer stays
Document the Furniture
When renting out furnished, it is important to document all furniture and their condition. Take photos and create an inventory list that you attach to the rental agreement.
Insurance
Make sure you have insurance that covers your furniture. Also encourage the tenant to get their own home insurance.
Pricing
You can usually charge a higher rent for a furnished apartment. The furniture itself is not counted in the rent calculations - you can add a reasonable furniture surcharge on top of the base rent.
