How it works

Three steps. You only shop in the last one.

  1. Send us the space

    Upload a few photos or a floor plan. Tell us about the property, your style, and your furnishing budget.

  2. We build your plan

    We choose every piece for each room, check that it fits the space and the budget, and make sure it all works together.

  3. Buy from the list

    Open your plan, click the links, and check out. The decisions are already made.

How we choose

Every piece has to pass four tests.

Guests are hard on furniture, and a rental has to earn back what you spend on it. We choose for both.

  • Priced for a rental

    The lowest price that still does the job well, so your budget goes further.

  • Well made

    Solid frames, real joinery, and finishes that still look good after a year of bookings.

  • Built for turnover

    Washable rugs, removable covers, and surfaces that wipe clean between guests.

  • Chosen as a set

    Colors, materials, and scale are matched across the property, so your listing photos show one well-designed home.

The property

After checkout, email photos or a floor plan to design@hostfurnish.com. A few phone photos of each room is enough, and rough measurements help.

Questions

Before you order.

Do you buy or deliver the furniture?

No. You buy everything yourself from the links in your plan, so you control the orders, delivery dates, and returns.

Is the plan fee part of my furnishing budget?

No. The fee pays for the plan. Your furnishing budget is what you want to spend on the products, and we build the plan to that number.

What do you need from me?

A few photos of each room or a floor plan, basic details about the property, your style, and a target budget. Rough measurements help us get the sizes right. We'll email you for the photos after you order.

Can I order just one room?

Yes. Pricing is by the room, so you can order a single bedroom, one living room, or the whole property.

How do I pay?

On Stripe's secure checkout page when you place your order. The plan fee is paid up front, and we start work once your payment goes through.

I already own some furniture. Can you work around it?

Yes. List what you're keeping in the notes and include it in your photos. We plan the rest of the room around it.
