How to furnish an apartment in the UAE for rent and why it is profitable for the owner?
Why Design and Furnishing Matter

So, you’ve bought an apartment and decided to rent it out. In Dubai, about 80% of housing is rented, so to rent your apartment at a higher rate than similar ones in the same building, you need to stand out among your neighbors.

For example, if your building has 100 one-bedroom apartments, you’ll be competing with 80 similar ones. To rent faster, many owners simply lower the rent — but your goal is high income, so this approach doesn’t work.

What really helps your apartment stand out is modern design and quality furniture. Even a simple, stylish design with an accent wall, mixed textures, minimal decor, and a pleasant color palette will make your unit more attractive than 80% of others in the same building. This gives you a significant advantage: more bookings, better reviews, and ultimately a higher rental price.

It also boosts your property’s resale value later on. When competition among identical apartments is high, proper design and furnishing can greatly increase the market value. We’re not talking about white, developer-standard walls — but about a thought-out, livable interior.

The Most Effective Design and Furnishing Solution

Let’s take a standard one-bedroom apartment from a developer. Ideally, the bathroom and kitchen already feature modern finishes — or these can be added. Kitchen appliances such as a stove, dishwasher, toaster, coffee machine, kettle, microwave, and washing machine are essential for rental properties and required by law. Expect to spend around 10,000 AED and up for these.

Next comes the furniture: a quality sofa (preferably a sofa bed to increase capacity), a large bed with a good mattress and linens (which strongly affects guest feedback), and cozy decorative elements. Soft rugs, artwork, plants, varied lighting, and small touches create warmth and character. These require minimal investment but yield much higher returns.

DIY or Professional Team?

As with any project, we recommend working with professionals. However, hiring a typical interior design or renovation firm may lead to unnecessary expenses — such companies focus on personal-use interiors, not rental optimization.

Our team includes designers, technical specialists, and contractors. We collaborate with furniture stores to secure discounts and offers. For a reasonable price, we handle design, wall painting, technical work, furniture installation, appliances, and decor.

The result:
• Your apartment’s value increases by 10–20% if sold.
• Rental income can increase by up to 40%.
• Project completion time: 7–17 days — since we manage apartments ourselves, we know that every idle day means lost profit for both the owner and us.

Real Case Example from Ateliero

Our client bought a one-bedroom apartment in a new building in JVC (Jumeirah Village Circle). Average long-term rent in that building is around 80,000 AED per year.

We carried out designer renovation, added furniture and appliances, and together decided to rent it short-term.
As a result, the client earned 115,000 AED in net profit per year. At the same time, long-term offers came in for 100,000 AED, compared to the standard 80,000 AED in that building.

Investment in design, renovation, furniture, and appliances: 34,000 AED.
Outcome: the apartment’s value increased, and the investment paid off within the first year of rental.

Alternatively, the client could have rented the apartment unfurnished — but the search for tenants could take 3+ months, leading to a loss of around 20,000 AED in missed income.

Conclusion

If your apartment is empty, has a basic developer finish, or was furnished independently, our team will help you find the optimal solution, create a custom design based on what’s already done, and integrate existing furniture into the new concept.
