How property professionals furnish 10, 50, or 200 apartments with Makasa

For property promoters, block landlords, and asset managers, Makasa scales from a single unit to a whole building — same interlocutor, same quote, same timeline.

Furnishing one apartment is a project. Furnishing 30 apartments at once is a logistics problem — and if you're a property promoter delivering a new residence, or a block landlord commissioning a building, the difference between 'well-run' and 'badly run' furnishing shows up directly in your delivery date and your first-year occupancy rate.

This is where Makasa's professional offer gets interesting.

One interlocutor, N apartments

The typical Makasa pro engagement looks like this: a single advisor handles the whole property portfolio, regardless of whether it's 5 apartments or 200. You get one quote, one project manager, one delivery calendar, and one invoice per property (or one bulk invoice if that's easier for your accounting).

That single-contact structure is worth more than most first-time developers realize. If you've ever managed a project with 8 vendors delivering into the same building, you know why.

Standardization with room for style

For a large residence, Makasa typically offers 2-3 ambience packs — a modern warm, a modern cool, and a premium version — instead of one uniform look. Tenants get variety, marketing photos stay coherent, and the operational complexity stays manageable.

The packs are always compliant with the LMNP decree — that piece is non-negotiable and it protects your fiscal positioning on the whole operation.

Delivery orchestrated to your calendar

For a 30-apartment building delivered floor by floor over 3 months, the Makasa team plans installs to match. Whole floors can be furnished in a single day, and the last apartment on the last floor is ready to photograph the same week the building gets its final acceptance.

This matters for two reasons: rental income starts the day the apartment is furnished, not the day the building is delivered; and marketing photos can be taken as soon as each floor is done, meaning the first tenants can be signed *before* the building is officially handed over.

Volume pricing that actually reflects volume

The professional pricing at Makasa gets meaningfully better with volume — supplier discounts, consolidated logistics, and one-time design work all get amortized across the total order. On larger operations, this can shave 15-25 % off the equivalent unit price.

Leasing (LOA) for the whole portfolio

For pro clients who prefer to keep furniture off the balance sheet, Makasa arranges LOA (leasing) contracts from 12 to 60 months across the whole order. Furniture rotates every 5-7 years anyway on a serviced portfolio, so leasing often lines up perfectly with the refresh cycle.

Who the pro offer is for

  • **Property promoters** delivering new residences (individual or in bulk).
  • **Block landlords** owning full buildings or floors under professional LMNP or LMP status.
  • **Property managers** running short-term rental or corporate-housing portfolios.
  • **Serviced-residence operators** (student housing, senior housing, aparthotels).
  • **Real-estate networks** — Makasa already partners with Foncia, Stellium, Lodgis, Sporting Immobilier, Urbat, and Allora Immo.
