Growing demand but some drawbacks
Furnished rental is mainly practiced in major cities, where students and young workers are numerous.Metropolises also drain a population that has been used to settle temporarily for professional missions, hence the attraction for this type of property, living immediately, which explodes this year.So much so that in Paris and Bordeaux, there are now more furnished than empty accommodation.Besides, furnished rentals are going quickly!If he can vary from simple to double in Paris, the average rental period remains only 19 days.
ALUR laws (March 2014) then Macron (August 2015), however, hardened the rental conditions.Any leased accommodation must be "decent": the accommodation must be sufficiently equipped to allow the tenant to sleep there, eat and live properly with regard to the requirements of everyday life.A decree, which entered into force on September 1, 2015, sets in particular the list of compulsory elements and equipment available to housing: bedding, blackout shutters in bedrooms, cooking plates, oven and fridge, table and chairs, shelves, lights.In this perspective, furnish and equip an apartment or a house requires a basic investment, but this cost can quickly assert according to the cities.
The management of the equipment provided and the furniture is added to the rental management proper.As a player you will have to intervene in the event of a breakdown, wear, damage ... which is not always easy when you live far from the rental.The speed to react to different situations of potential tenants will punctuate the occupancy rate of your property.For example, if you put a T3 for rent, you have to know how to adapt just as well to the needs of a bachelor wishing a room and an office, as of two roommates or a family with children for example.
