What furniture and equipment does Flatio require properties to provide?
Because Flatio is an online service and the entire process from requesting a reservation to signing a lease is done online rather than in person, we have created specific standards for the furniture, appliances and other equipment that every flat offered with our service must have. This is so that potential tenants know what to expect when they rent a flat via Flatio.
