[Property Information](https://help.alcoverooms.com/faq-for-tenants?hsLang=en#property-information) # What Furniture is Included in Alcove Homes? ## Landlords are required to provide common area furniture. #### **Common Area Furniture (Required)** All homes listed on Alcove include landlord-provided common area furniture. At minimum, this typically includes: - A couch - A coffee table or side tables - A kitchen or dining table These furnishings must remain in the common areas unless otherwise approved by both the landlord and all housemates. Tenants are welcome to bring additional shared furniture; however, landlord-provided items may not be removed, stored, or relocated without written approval from the landlord.  #### **Bedroom Furniture (Varies by Property)** Landlords are **not required** to furnish individual bedrooms. Most tenants should plan to provide their own: - Bed and mattress - Desk and/or dresser - Bedroom décor However, some landlords choose to furnish certain bedrooms. Homes that have furnished bedrooms will be labeled with a **"Furnished Bedrooms"** tag in the top of the listing To confirm whether a bedroom is furnished: - Review the home’s listing carefully before applying and check for the "Furnished Bedrooms" tag - Check the bedroom description and photos. If a landlord is furnishing a bedroom and you prefer to use your own furniture\*: - **Before signing:** Contact the Sales Team to inquire whether removal is possible. - **After signing:** Submit a support ticket in your [Alcove Portal](https://www.alcoverooms.com/renter-support?category=bedroom_modifications_and_alterations) to request landlord approval. \*Furniture removal is not guaranteed and is subject to landlord approval. #### **Other Items Tenants Should Plan to Bring** Tenants should also plan to provide their own: - Kitchen utensils and cookware - Bathroom supplies - Bedroom linens Before move-in, we encourage incoming tenants to coordinate with future housemates to determine what items may be shared and what will need to be purchased individually. -
