What’s best to buy furnished or unfurnished apartments?

When you buy real estate in Pakistan, it means you are investing in real estate for better revenue in the future. While there are lots of options to choose between the location and size of the house, there is another overwhelming choice you have to make.

Furnished or Unfurnished Apartment

The choice is about the furnished or unfurnished house. There are apartments and houses for sale in the market that offer you to choose between furnished and unfurnished places to live or work. It is a long debate, but here we have gathered the pros and cons of both so you can decide better. So let’s get started:

Pros:

Convenient moving:
Like the term said furnished, it means that you have been provided with all the accessories like furnishing and fixtures, so you do not need to bring stuff into the apartment. All you need is to come and start living.
Saves money on buying new furniture:
New furniture is quite expensive these days, and while renting or buying a house with furniture saves you lots of bucks.

Cons:

No control over style:
Buying a furnished home is like going on a blind date. You do not know what you will get, and there is no control over aesthetics:
Increase rent or payment plans:
No one leaves the furniture in the home as a gift for you. Obviously, you have to pay for them, and it does not cost cheap. According to a survey, a furnished house is at least 2 to 3 % extra on rent or deposit.
