It is always a dilemma when buying any holiday property, whether here or abroad, just how to go about the furnishing.  Often buyers are limited by time to fully equip their new homes as deliveries are delayed during their holiday window causing havoc with upcoming rentals, schedules and budgets.

Estate Agents are often asked for help or advice in this respect.  But there is an answer Janes Furnishing Solutions run a successful home and holiday home furniture package service providing complete or part packs, not only in the UK, but also mainland Europe and their speciality: Turkey. They have an impressive portfolio having worked the length and breadth of the continent hand in hand with developers, estate agents and private clients, providing furniture packs and interior design services.

Although most new property is sold unfurnished in Turkey, most resale property comes furnished.  This gives to instances where new owners want to make changes, throw out, update and put their own personal stamp to their new home but Furniture shopping in Turkey can be precarious as foreigners are rarely given the same prices as the locals.

Your Holiday Home Ready for Rent with Turkish Furniture

There is a temptation for owners of Turkish property, to be rented out to holiday makers, to furnish and equip their home as cheaply as possible. However, would you like to take a holiday in a villa or apartment that has a lumpy mattress, bed springs sticking in your back, or attempt to relax on a 3 legged sunbed? Probably not, and your guests won´t like it either!

Opting for a higher quality furniture package will ensure that your guests are comfortable and happy, which in turn will convert into repeat bookings and ´word-of-mouth´advertising.

Furnishishing a rental property in Turkey - A Guide

As the rental market becomes more and more competitive, the way you present your furnished property is paramount. The holiday rental market now demands higher and higher specifications that include entertainment facilities and kitchens that provide more than just the basics.

Many owners feel that by furnishing as cheaply as possible they can cut corners with their rental property.  Unfortunately, this is not the case as the wear, tear and damages mount up far more quickly when low grade furniture and fittings are used.  Again and again it is proved that it is a false economy to provide cheap furniture, which inevitably needs replacing annually or worse still let you down whilst you have people staying.

Guests these days want a 'home from home' experience when on holiday and rental properties need to reflect this.

Income on a rental property cam be boosted and bookings repeated by using a good quality furnishing package teamed some homely finishing touches, accessories, soft furnishings and electrical goods. It should also be remembered that although eating out in Turkey is reasonably priced your guests are on a self catering holiday and as such a good selection of crockery, cutlery (that can easily be replaced if broken) and utensils should be supplied.

If advertising your home to sleep six you must supply seating, dining, garden furniture hanging and storage space for all the occupants.

Try to make the bedrooms as flexible as possible and it is always worth paying a little extra and installing good quality mattresses and bedding. Lumpy mattress and sleepless nights will not encourage repeat bookings and may even result in your guests demanding a refund.

Unless specified, your home should be furnished as 'child friendly' to appeal to families so avoid glass table tops and ornaments.  Difficult or steep stairs should have a handrail installed and the swimming pool gated to avoid accidents.

Further considerations are:

·         Fly-screens covering all the windows.

·         Torches and candles for power cuts.

·         Lightweight portable heaters to extend the rental window.

·         Extra blankets/heavier weight duvets

·         Hot water bottles – for chilly evenings

·         Extra Gas or Water bottles (or at least a contact number to obtain)

·         Spare shower heads – and electric bulbs

·         Microwave, dishwasher, Satellite TV and/or DVD player,

·         Well equipped kitchen,

·         Air con

·         Hoover

·         Tea/coffee/toilet roll and cleaning equipment left in the property for your guests arrival

And finally, do make sure you are adequately insured and that it includes public liability (especially if you have a pool)and that the home is safe for the holiday makers, making sure that phone numbers are at hand for doctors, dentists etc. and directions to the nearest pharmacy and supermarket.
