Benefits of Short-Term Furniture Hire for Luxury Lettings in London
If you’re letting out a high-end property in the UK’s capital, there are multiple reasons for using a furniture hire service, particularly for corporate lets, overseas professionals or if you’re a developer showcasing a luxury apartment.
Here are some of the top reasons for using upscale furniture hire in London.
1.) Enjoy speedier lets while maximising rental yield
Turn a vacant space into a potential home with high-end furnishings and look forward to a rental yield of 10% to 20% higher than would otherwise be possible, while preventing lengthy void periods.
2.) A bespoke luxury aesthetic
With the right provider, you’ll enjoy curated, premium furniture packages designed to suit particular upmarket demographics in areas such as Kensington or Mayfair, where expectations tend to be high. Often, the provider of the furniture also offers a bespoke interior design service.
Rather than choosing cheaper, mass-produced pieces, with luxury furniture hire you have the opportunity to craft a home that’s unique.
3.) Logistics handled with zero hassle
Not only does the furniture hire firm take care of the design of the interior of the property, it also usually handles delivery, assembly and removal of items. This saves landlords considerable time and effort, especially in central London where transporting items can pose something of a challenge.
4.) Flexible cost-efficiency
Rather than buying potentially expensive high-end furniture for short-term use, renting offers a fixed monthly, tax-deductible charge. Plus it’s a highly flexible option in that you’re not purchasing pieces upfront to use temporarily. You can also easily swap pieces around as needs and interior design trends change.
5.) Sustainability
Every year, some 22 million pieces of furniture are discarded in the UK, with around 670,000 tonnes ending up in landfill or being incinerated. This is a notable proportion of the country’s bulky waste, driven by a ‘throwaway’ culture and a low rate of repairs. Renting helps reduce this.
