As a property managers, we’re always happy to discuss ideas which may help boost rental appeal of our property owners’ apartments. A well-presented furnished apartment is more likely to be quickly snapped up by one of our residents and be listed at a higher weekly rental than one which is not. We’ve put together a great list of timeless interior design trends to help you increase the rental appeal of your Wellington or Auckland apartment.

Boost Rental Appeal Using Timeless Interior Design Trends 

We are renowned for the exceptionally high quality of our furnished apartment rentals with both our corporate and individual residents.  This is in part because we can personally advise our property owners on any required touch-ups, additional cleaning or extra furnishings that would be beneficial in preparing their properties for guests. We can also recommend local interior design teams and furnishing stores who could also be of assistance.

We find that it is a mixture of modern and timeless interior design trends which boost rental appeal, including:

·       Neutral palette – decorating your rental using a neutral palette of creams, whites, greys and taupe help to make the interior appeal to a wide variety of people. Residents are then able to make small changes by adding their own colours and textures with linen, rugs, paintings and other small accessories.

·       Smart home technology – growing in popularity, smart home technology enhances your tenant’s well-being by providing them with the convenience of being able to digitally manage their ambient temperature, lighting systems, window treatments and security features.

·       Multi-functional spaces – having a room able to fit a dual purpose, such as a kitchen with counter seating, or a bedroom with a study nook, provides additional value to a tenant. Also providing furniture which can fulfil a dual purpose, such as built in storage or partitions can also be viewed as a positive.

·       Sustainable and eco-friendly materials – the use of natural materials is a key aspect many residents are looking for. Locally made furniture, NZ wool flooring, eco friendly bedding and throw rugs are popular and timeless interior design features.

·       Updated appliances – our residents do appreciate the provision of updated kitchen appliances such as dishwashers, fridges, jugs, coffee machines and ovens. This is also true for other household appliances including light fixtures and fittings, vacuum cleaners, air purifiers and Wi-Fi connections.
