AIRBNB HELP! How much is too much?

Staci Ryan
Posted

My close friend is an interior designer and furnishes' AIRBNB's on the side. She said it'd be $15,700 to fully furnish it as an AIRBNB (that is not including the kitchen demo we are doing.) That seems high to me but honestly I'm a newbie at this. Any advice or numbers that you've spend on your AIRBNB would be greatly appreciated!

I just full furnished a 620sq ft apartment for $5k - I purchased mostly new furniture but did find some smaller items on FB market place and second hand stores. Wayfair & Amazon have some good deals. Good Luck!

I furnished a 1,000 square foot home for about $1,000 by buying used-but still nice-furniture, shopping for some things at Goodwill, and buying linens at a deep discount store. $15K sounds like a lot to me for such a small place.
