Inexpensively Furnishing STRs

[Amy Ahearn]

I'm a newbie and I'm currently running the numbers for my first STR in the Cape Coral, FL area. I'm finding very few (like one) properties that come furnished. The thought of furnishing a 3/2 STR seems like it will kill my finances in the beginning. Any ideas or tips others have used? Thanks for your help.

@Amy Ahearn I haven’t done this myself, but have heard good things about going the route of Facebook marketplace, goodwill, second hand stores etc with well design tasteful ikea/purchased pieces. From there, upgrade as the business pays for it....

I have long term rentals in the area but considering STR myself. If I do, this is the route I will go to begin with.
