It cost me very little to furnish my property because I used the furniture that I have.

@Gainet MataYour tenant's furniture will not matter to an experienced appraiser.  

Our program is set up to not only pay for their rent, but it also covers all utilities, cable and wifi, as well as furnishes  the home with all they in furniture, bedding and kitchen supplies.

I also thought about moving down but then there’s the issue of where I’d put my furniture.

I have always rented, never owned.In my 7 years in Honolulu, I was fortunate enough to work for Reuse Hawaii, build furniture, participate in the rehabilitation of Kakaako, and became friends with master craftsmen, artists, and design professionals.

The wealth of resources included is extremely impressive: Over 200 lessons and 80+ hours of video lessons in the masterclass component, 10+ live calls per month with specialists in various aspects of STRs (including at least one a month with Rob), a growing community that gives you a built-in network of fellow STR investors/realtors/lenders right off the bat (1.5K+ members of the Facebook group), and lots of perks like downloadable spreadsheets/resources and membership to a group purchasing organization that gives 30-75% discounts on furniture from West Elm, Crate&Barrel, Pottery Barn, Williams Sonoma, among others.

I figured a starting point would be the Comps for the property itself, then furniture.

I dont want HOLES in my walls, or railing removed/replaced just to get furniture into this room.  

All of the apartments are Furnished with Antique furniture.  

But then I was just thinking about leaving it empty, then negotiating the "rental" of all the furniture, which I would buy, if they want it.
