Highly recommend speaking with Belong. I took their recommendations on property improvements and attracted some great tenants at a premium. Guaranteed rent is a major plus too. Their service team is prompt and reasonably priced. I higly recommend at least giving them a look.

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 :)

The short answer is no, all Belong Homes come unfurnished. And we don't recommend trying to do that on your own either!
