Turn furnished into a written inventory

A furnished offer can speed a move but does not identify what you receive. Request a room-by-room list of beds, cupboards, tables, appliances, air conditioning, lights and kitchen items. Record model or brand, quantity and new or used condition. Photo accessories are not automatically included. Confirm that the shown unit is the purchased unit. Put the package into a contract annex, including how and when missing items are supplied, rather than relying on verbal gifts.

Test equipment before trusting appearance

Furniture does not replace technical inspection. Test cooling, hot water, kitchen appliances, water pressure, sockets and lighting. Look around windows, damp walls, balcony drainage and behind furniture; use an independent specialist for a detailed report. Ask about cooling capacity, appliance age, service history and spare-part costs. Confirm warranty holder, transferability and local service in writing. Functioning today does not exclude later faults; retain a maintenance budget.

Calculate the total package cost

Compare more than furniture shop prices: delivery, installation, warranty, replacement and unsuitable items matter. Separate common charges, shared maintenance, subscriptions and management. Clarify currency, package scope and buyer-paid costs. For letting, consider durability, spare keys, laundry and cleaning. A furnished package does not guarantee rent. Compare two homes using equal cost scope and ask about differences that might appear after payment.

Combine handover with legal checks

Record inventory, photos, meter readings, keys and outstanding work at handover. Set fault reporting, responsible party and completion dates. Independently review purchase permission, title history, encumbrances, contract and relevant ownership risks; furniture does not reduce these checks. EvimAda can help shortlist furnished offers, with current inventory and actual delivery confirmed by the firm. Adarivo and EvimAda are sister projects. Ready-to-use value includes clarity about what you buy and subsequent costs. Keep the inventory separately from the price quote. Preserve earlier versions and confirm the final agreed scope in writing, so handover differences can be identified item by item.
