How the heck does the furniture rental process work?

 
How does this process work? What’s involved? Who pays?

Most homeowners have never been involved with furniture rentals and even many seasoned agents have never dealt with it.

When we talk about renting furniture we usually mean the larger items such as sofas and chairs, dining sets, large carpets, bistro sets, beds etc.
At Regroup we will work with what a homeowner has whenever we can.
This means furniture rental can involve complete rooms or partial rooms or just one impactful piece.
Here how it works.

First, we come to the property to do a consult or a needs assessment. We also discuss budget and this is when we create a vision for the space and target market.

Next we do all the work  -including receiving the furniture at the home, furniture configuration and even once the home is sold we make arrangements for pick up.

The rental is based on a one-month period and must be paid for before delivery by the client (homeowner or agent). If an extension is required most rental companies charge either 20% less for the second month or will pro-rate. 

There you have it - the mystery of renting furniture is solved!

  1. I used a similar technique called “not owning furniture and sitting on the floor” until I got married.

  2. Think using patterns in your décor is risk? Think again! Patterned furniture and décor should not be left to professional designers alone. You can find plenty of furnishings and furniture rental pieces that sport great patterns and incorporate them into your home.
