I'm on the board of a homeowner's association, and one of our owners contracted with Belong to manage the rental of their unit. Belong's staff promptly contacted the HOA to obtain copies of governing documents, and asked if there were any rules to be aware of, demonstrating that they know what they're doing, and care about compliance with the community's governing documents. Not only but I know they actually reviewed the documents, because they had a question about the number of pets permissible, because our rule was kind of vague. So good for them for being proactive in addressing potential problems before they become one.

I have been nothing short of impressed by Belong and Erica our coordinator thus far. They have been very resourceful and thoroughly professional. They helped us end to end from prepping to rent out, to finding awesome tenants to maintaining our property in the Bay Area. Their response has been prompt for any questions I have as well as our tenants may have. Belong FTW :)

I was very satisfied with my viewing of the property and impressed with the inside of the rental as well. The property manager was pleasant and informative.

These guys are just starting out, but already I can tell they're on to something. Blown away so far with the level of service they provide, and the quality of work they do when something needs to be fixed or attended to. My tenants love them as well, which no one ever says about a property manager, but they wrote me to tell me so. They provide great tools as well that they built as the startup they are. Has been a pleasure to work with David and Jordan on their team, and Francisco as well has done an awesome job. Can't recommend them enough.

I am so glad I moved from my old property manager to Belong. Belong's guaranteed rent is my favorite since I don't have to worry about rent collection.

The short answer is no, all Belong Homes come unfurnished. And we don't recommend trying to do that on your own either! While you probably have great taste, in general, furnished homes rent for way less than unfurnished homes, and lead to negative experiences down the road if something gets damaged.
