Move in tomorrow — everything you need is already there
By Sandeep Sadh · Founder & CEO, Rentu.in · 33+ years in Mumbai real estate
Mumbai moves fast, and when you're relocating for a new job, returning from abroad, or simply want to skip the hassle of setting up a home from scratch, a furnished apartment is the answer. You walk in with your suitcase, and everything — from the modular kitchen to the air conditioning to the washing machine — is already there. In our 33 years of helping people find homes in Mumbai, furnished apartments have gone from being a niche request to one of the most sought-after categories in our inventory.
The demand for furnished apartments in Mumbai comes from a diverse mix of tenants. Expats relocating to India often prefer turnkey homes — they're here for a two or three-year assignment and don't want to invest in furniture they'll leave behind. Corporate tenants on deputation need a comfortable setup from day one. Young professionals moving from other cities appreciate the convenience. And increasingly, we see Mumbai-based families who simply want a well-designed, modern home without the months of coordination that furnishing requires.
When a property is listed as "fully furnished" on Rentu.in, you can expect:
"Semi-furnished" typically means modular kitchen and wardrobes are in place, but you'll need to bring your own beds, sofa, and appliances. We always recommend clarifying the exact inventory before signing the lease — and our team provides detailed furnishing lists for every property we list.
The most popular area for furnished rentals — trendy, central, and packed with lifestyle options. Furnished 2BHKs here go for ₹1,50,000 to ₹3,00,000 per month. The area attracts young executives, entrepreneurs, and expats who want to be in the heart of Mumbai's social scene.
Powai is the favourite for IT professionals and families. Hiranandani Gardens offers some of the best furnished apartments in Mumbai — lake facing views, gated security, and all the amenities of a self-contained township. Furnished 2BHKs: ₹60,000 to ₹1,20,000 per month.
Andheri West is Mumbai's volume market for furnished flats. More affordable than Bandra, well-connected by metro and rail, and close to the airport. Furnished 2BHKs: ₹50,000 to ₹1,00,000 per month. Areas like Lokhandwala, Versova, and Four Bungalows are popular.
For those seeking premium furnished apartments with luxury amenities — swimming pool, gym, concierge — Worli and Lower Parel deliver. Buildings like Lodha World Towers and Indiabulls Sky offer fully furnished options starting at ₹2,00,000 per month for a 2BHK.
Many tenants wonder whether it's cheaper to rent unfurnished and buy their own furniture. In our experience, furnished apartments cost about 20–40% more in monthly rent, but you save significantly on upfront costs — furniture, appliances, and the time and effort of setting everything up. For stays of 2 years or less, furnished is almost always the better deal. For longer stays, some tenants prefer to furnish their own space to their taste.
Our team knows which buildings offer the best furnished apartments in every area. Tell us your budget and preferred location — we'll send you a curated shortlist within 24 hours. Set up a Google Meet or just catch up over coffee.
