How much should you spend on furniture for a rental?

Renting changes the calculus — you're planning for 1–3 years, not 10 — here's the range. A comfortable range is $1,600$2,400, with a sweet spot around $2,400. Stretching goes up to $2,900; past $2,900, more spending rarely buys a better outcome. This range leans directional — see the notes below for why.
