Convert Long Term Rental into Short Term Rental

Hi, we are considering turning our long term rental property into a short rental. This would be our first STR as we have 3 other long term rental properties. My questions is has anyone used a fully turnkey company like Awning or Quantr Rentals to fully setup ( provide furniture, technology, management, etc.) to start your STR? If so can you provide any feedback from using them or refer us to a different company? Any info would be great. Thxs

I have not used any of these companies but turnkey is going to be much more expensive than you doing this yourself.

You could buy good used furniture from 2nd hand stores or FB marketplace. 

You could hire a local handyman to pickup and assemble items.

You could also go to too to go and buy the big stuff and have it delivered.

Other stuff you could order on Wayfair and Amazon and have it shipped to the house.

A local staging company might be willing to help you and coordinate deliveries that you purchase.

Turnkey is going to cost a lot more.
