Unfurnished Rentals: Are They Really Worth It in 2025?

If you're a property owner in Bangalore, you've likely heard this debate many times: Should I furnish my flat before renting it out? For a long time, the answer wasn't so clear. Unfurnished flats were standard. Tenants were expected to bring their setup. However, we're no longer living in 2015. It's 2025, and the rental market has undergone a complete transformation.

In a city buzzing with professionals, digital nomads, and young families, the demand for fully furnished flats in Bangalore has skyrocketed. And if you're still offering an empty house with nothing more than four walls and a geyser, you're probably losing out.

This blog explores why unfurnished rentals are becoming outdated and how switching to a furnished rental model can transform your flat into a steady stream of passive income—without lifting a finger.


1. Tenants Want Convenience, Not Cardboard Boxes

Imagine moving cities for work. You've already got enough on your plate—a new job, new people, new traffic jams. Now add the headache of buying beds, sofas, kitchen appliances, curtains... the list is endless.

That's why today's tenants are actively searching for ready-to-move, fully furnished flats for rent in Bangalore. They want to move in with just a suitcase—not a truckload of furniture.

Unfurnished flats? Too many, they feel incomplete. 

"If it's not fully furnished, it's not even on my shortlist." — A common sentiment among tenants on platforms like NoBroker and MagicBricks.


2. The Numbers Don't Lie: Furnished = More Money

Let's say you own a 2BHK in Sarjapur Road:

  • Unfurnished rental: ₹18,000/month

  • Fully furnished rental: ₹28,000–₹32,000/month

That's over ₹1 lakh more per year—just for turning a house into a home. And guess what? Furnished homes also get occupied faster. So, you earn more and sooner.


3. The Hidden Costs of Keeping it Empty

Every week, your flat sits vacant. That's the rent you'll never get back.

Every potential tenant who picks a fully furnished place over yours? That's a golden chance gone.

Unfurnished rentals tend to attract shorter leases and less responsible tenants. Furnished homes, especially those well-maintained, tend to attract professionals, families, and long-term renters who take pride in caring for the space.
