Meet Makasa — turnkey LMNP furnishing, delivered and installed in 15 days

Meet Makasa — turnkey LMNP furnishing, delivered and installed in 15 days

Makasa furnishes French rental properties for LMNP owners in 15 days — designer-curated packs, on-site assembly, and 100 % compliant with the 2015 decree.

If you own a rental in France that needs to be furnished for LMNP, you've done this math before: a full weekend at IKEA, a dozen trips up three floors, an assembly session that turns into two, and a stack of receipts to match against the legal furnishing checklist. Multiply that by three or four apartments and you're looking at a month of your life you're not getting back.

Makasa was built to give you back that month.

The business in one sentence

Makasa delivers turnkey furniture packs — designed, delivered, and installed in 15 days — for French rental properties that need to comply with the LMNP (loueur meublé non professionnel) furnishing rules. One quote, one call, one date, and the apartment is ready to rent.

What you actually get

A Makasa pack isn't a stack of flat-pack boxes at your door. It's the complete service:

  • Interior-designer-curated ambience packs — modern, cohesive, tenant-friendly.
  • Personalization if you want to swap or add items.
  • Professional delivery scheduled to your convenience.
  • Full on-site assembly by a qualified team.
  • Cardboard and packaging removed.
  • Old furniture taken away and responsibly recycled if you have it.

You hand over the keys. They give them back with the apartment ready to photograph and list.

Why LMNP owners love it

The 31 July 2015 decree (n°2015-981) lists exactly what a furnished French rental must contain — bedding, storage, cooking equipment, lighting, seating, dishes. Makasa's packs are engineered around this list, so every unit is automatically compliant. No missing items, no rejected declarations, no last-minute panics when a tenant moves in.

Who it's for

Makasa serves two audiences with equal ease. Individual landlords with a single LMNP apartment — one quote, one furnished unit, zero stress. And professionals — property promoters, block landlords, property managers — who can equip anywhere from a handful to hundreds of apartments from a single quote and a single point of contact. The company delivers everywhere in France, including Corsica.

Trust signals

Makasa is rated 4.6/5 across 77 verified reviews. They work with major real-estate networks including Foncia, Stellium, Lodgis, Sporting Immobilier, Urbat, and Allora Immo. Financing is flexible: bank transfer, 3× or 4× payment, or leasing (LOA) from 12 to 60 months so the furnishing cost doesn't hit your cash flow all at once.

The 20 % rent bump

Studios with modern, coordinated furniture rent for roughly 20 % more than the same unit with basic furniture. Makasa's designers know this. The packs are curated to hit the LMNP requirements *and* the aesthetic bar that today's tenants expect. Higher rent, faster occupancy, better reviews — that's the real point.

Why I recommend Makasa

Furnishing rental property is one of those jobs that eats an owner's evenings for no strategic gain. Makasa turns it into a 15-day, single-invoice operation. Whether you own one LMNP unit or a portfolio of them, delegating this to a specialist team that already knows the regulation is one of the fastest ROI decisions you can make as a French real-estate investor.
