Before you finance your hotel furnishing, you should check what additional revenue a modernisation brings. From experience, occupancy and room rate can be noticeably raised after a renovation — figures you can factor into your calculation. Just as important is a look at your collateral: savings, real estate, securities or bank guarantees also help determine which financing is an option. Clarify this early with your tax adviser and bank. In principle, there are three ways to finance hotel furnishing: classic rental, hire-purchase (instalment purchase) and a bank loan. Each option has its own pros and cons in terms of collateral, term and accounting. Good to know: a modernisation doesn’t have to be paid for all at once. Those who invest in phases spread the costs and stay open for business — which is easy on liquidity. ![Dekoratives Hintergrundelement](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/themes/theme-4eck/build/images/design/element-03.svg) ## Rental, hire-purchase or a loan compared ### Which financing suits your project? Rental: you rent the furnishing, and the rental expense is deductible as a business expense. Advantage: little capital tied up and usually less collateral. Ideal if you want to stay liquid. Hire-purchase / instalment purchase: you pay in instalments and become the owner at the end. The furnishing is recorded as a fixed asset and depreciated. A good balance of predictable instalments and ownership. Bank loan: the classic route via your own bank. It often offers long terms but generally requires higher collateral and depends on the bank’s lending decision. Whichever route you choose: furniRENT stands by your side as a partner. ## Hotel projects: realised & financed with support from furniRENT ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-bauphase-2-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-bauphase-3-referenz-furnirent-03-1-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-das-wellnesshotel-an-der-ostsee-referenz-furnirent-06-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/wellness-und-sporthotel-kolmhof-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/alpengasthof-zur-post-referenz-furnirent-04-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apart-of-me-faaker-see-referenz-furnirent-02-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apart-of-me-villach-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apartments-villach-referenz-furnirent-05-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-bauphase-2-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-bauphase-3-referenz-furnirent-03-1-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/trihotel-das-wellnesshotel-an-der-ostsee-referenz-furnirent-06-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/wellness-und-sporthotel-kolmhof-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/alpengasthof-zur-post-referenz-furnirent-04-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apart-of-me-faaker-see-referenz-furnirent-02-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apart-of-me-villach-referenz-furnirent-03-320x180.avif) ![](https://furnirent.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/apartments-villach-referenz-furnirent-05-320x180.avif) [Discover more references](https://furnirent.com/en/references) ## Financing hotel furnishing without a lot of equity Not every property has large reserves — and not every bank plays along. Even so, an overdue modernisation doesn’t have to wait. Through rental or hire-purchase models, hotel furnishing can be financed with little capital tied up, often with considerably less collateral than a classic loan. What’s decisive is a model geared to your liquidity: predictable instalments that are affordable from ongoing operations, instead of a large one-off payment. To make sure the investment pays off, a profitability calculation is worthwhile beforehand: how much additional revenue does the modernisation bring, and how high may the instalments be? With our online calculator, you can work through this yourself.

Via three routes: rental, hire-purchase (instalment purchase) or a bank loan. Which option fits depends on collateral, liquidity and accounting. Can you finance a hotel without equity? Generally, a certain amount of equity is helpful. Through rental or hire-purchase models, a modernisation can be carried out with little capital tied up and often less collateral. What matters is predictable instalments that are affordable from ongoing operations. What is the difference between rental and hire-purchase? With rental, you use the furnishing for a rental expense that is deductible as a business expense, without acquiring ownership. With hire-purchase, you pay in instalments and become the owner at the end; the furnishing is recorded as a fixed asset and depreciated. Is investing in new hotel furnishing worthwhile? As a rule, yes: after a renovation, occupancy and room rate can typically be raised noticeably. With a profitability calculation — for example via our online calculator — you can check this specifically for your property in advance. Does furniRENT draw up a financing concept? Yes. On request, you receive a professionally prepared investment and financing concept — free and with no obligation, so you can make your decision on a solid basis.
