Is it more profitable to rent a property in Valencia furnished or unfurnished?

ree

One of the most common questions property owners ask us is:Is it better to rent a property furnished or unfurnished?

Let’s look at this question based on real rental experience in Valencia.

Why Valencia attracts international tenants

In recent years, Valencia has become one of the most desirable cities for international residents.The key driver was the widespread adoption of remote work during COVID, which remains common in many global companies.

After borders reopened, people were free to choose where to live, not just where to work.Spain — and Valencia in particular — offers:

  • strong infrastructure

  • high safety standards

  • a mild climate

  • excellent food quality and variety

  • a welcoming lifestyle

  • still affordable prices compared to the US or Northern Europe

Who are today’s tenants?

In quality rental segments, most tenants are foreign professionals who:

  • are willing to pay slightly higher rent,

  • are reliable with payments,

  • rarely create legal or occupancy issues,

  • often rent before deciding to buy.

Many prefer to live in Spain for 1–2 years before making a purchase.

The key factor: furniture

From our experience, 9 out of 10 foreign tenants are not willing to rent an unfurnished property.They prefer flexibility and do not want to invest in furniture.

The numbers

In Valencia:

  • Unfurnished house: €2,500–3,500 / month

  • Furnished house: €200–300 more per month

Average: +€250 / month

Typical lease: 5 years

👉 €250 × 12 × 5 = €15,000

This amount is enough to fully furnish a property with good-quality furniture that lasts over 10 years.

Conclusion

  • Furniture pays for itself within the first 5 years

  • Higher rental income

  • Faster leasing and lower vacancy

Our recommendation is clear: furnish the property.
