Best way to finance furnishings when using 1031 exchange

[John Rankin]

I am using a 1031 exchange to purchase 2 STR's and from what research I have found is I am not allowed to use those funds for furnishing a property. What is the best way to finance the purchase of furnishings. I have some cash to do it but that will run me dry of my cash reserves which I would like to keep on hand for any unforeseen situations. Also, I know the cost will vary based on style and location but what is a good estimate for a 4 bedroom 2500 sqft property on cost to furnish properly. I have read anywhere from 10-15k all the way to 40-50k. Any input would be appreciated.

Use a CC  or use free financing from some place like rooms to go.
