Kitchen Furniture in Toronto

Friday, July 16th, 2010

With 30,000 square feet of showroom space to work with, we have quite a spectrum of options to satisfy any furniture customer’s needs.  From leather couches to coffee tables, from office panels and systems to bar stools, we’ve got you covered.  This post, we’re going to focus on the kitchen, and discuss some tips for picking out furniture ideal for its needs.  Executive Furniture Rentals is truly the premier destination for kitchen furniture in Toronto, and we’re going to help you get the most out of our selection.

One unique thing about furnishing a kitchen is that, unless you plan on shelling out for massive redecoration/renovation, the general “look” of your kitchen will already be determined.  This is due to the fact that your cabinets, counter tops, and appliances are already installed, and since they will (hopefully) share some sort of visual uniformity, your complementary kitchen options will be limited.  This has its benefits and drawbacks.  On the one hand, you won’t have as many paths to consider when picking furnishings out, which should theoretically make deciding on a look easier.  On the other, however, you’ll have less leeway to truly get as creative as you’d like because of those very limitations.

So it goes.  Once you’ve decided what sort of feel you’ll want, it’s time to start stocking the kitchen with the appropriate furnishings.  In this instance, you’ll want to start off with the biggest items first before you move to the smaller ones.  This is done in an attempt to maintain that unified aesthetic mentioned in the previous paragraph.  For example, you’ll want to figure out which kitchen buffets and tables you’re wanting to  buy before you move on to the kitchen chairs.  Of course, you can avoid this whole mix-and-match quandary by buying furniture by the room, which will ensure harmony between all pieces.

At Executive Furniture Rentals, we offer a whole lot more than just kitchen furniture.  We also offer office furniture, home staging solutions, and more.  Trust us to fulfill all your furniture needs in the Toronto area.

Moving to Toronto?

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Planning on moving to Toronto?  Whether you’re deciding to make such a relocation for a business opportunity, because of the allure of our fine city, or an irresistible combination of the two, Toronto has loads to offer for just about any new Torontonian transplant.

From a sheer numbers standpoint, the “loads to offer” bit makes a great deal of sense.  Toronto is Canada’s largest city, and its greater metropolitan area anchors the Golden Horseshoe of Southern Ontario, which is home to nearly 25% of Canada’s population.  Put enough hardworking people in one area and great things are bound to happen.

As the foremost city in Canada, Toronto’s economy centers around the business and finance sectors.  Home to the Toronto Stock Exchange, as well as the headquarters of all the primary banking institutions in Canada and a host of other corporations, Toronto certainly comes to work every day.

Our motto is “Diversity Our Strength,” and the vibrant, multicultural dynamism of our city can certainly attest to that.  Toronto boasts of the second-highest proportion of foreign-born residents of any major city in the world, edged out by only Miami in the United States.  However, Toronto’s immigrant population is much more polyglot, featuring Latinos, Asians, Europeans, and Africans in demographically significant populations.  This makes for a wonderful melting pot of cultures, cuisines, and ways of life, all within one city.

When you combine all those differing perspectives, you get a bevy of cultural opportunities to check out, and Toronto has that in spades.  It’s a North American center of theater, film, and art, and there are many shopping and nightlife districts, such as the Distillery District and the Yorkville neighborhood, worth visiting.

We here at Executive Furniture Rentals are proud to offer home furniture in Toronto.  Take advantage of our services, which also include custom corporate housing, as well as office furniture rental, and we’ll make your transition as smooth as possible.

Selling Your Toronto Home

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

When it comes to selling a home in Toronto, home staging gives sellers an edge. Staged homes look impressive to potential buyers and sell faster.

A friend recently forwarded us an interesting article in Palm Springs, California’s Desert Sun newspaper, in which expert Kenn Cross offers tips to help homeowners sell their property. “This is a very completive market and homes no longer sell themselves,” writes Cross. “A Realtor can use every resource under the sun to market a home, but it is up to the homeowner to prepare the house to be sold.”

Cross’ tips for homeowners are simple, and he reminds everyone that even though completing the tips is easy and will help a home shine, there’s always room for improvement. First on the list? Fragrance. According to the writer, small diffuser bottles can help cover up not-so-pleasant smells from pets, cigarette smoke or just that “old house” smell. He also recommends paying attention to your windows: Clean them and use window treatments. And instead of personal art on the walls, hang mirrors to “increase the perceived size of the space” and “help potential buyers visualize themselves in your home.”

Personal photos are a no-no as well, as they can make potential buyers feel like they’re taking over someone’s house, according to Cross. Don’t forget to clean —  even baseboards, ceiling fans and under furniture — and de-clutter. Too much furniture in rooms and too many clothes in closets doesn’t look good. This is where home staging can really help. The writer didn’t mention it, but we feel home staging is a smart, efficient way to make sure you not only have the right amount of furniture in your home, but that your home looks as attractive as possible.

Our Toronto home staging services at Executive Furniture Rentals are easy and affordable. We have experts who can help you determine exactly what you need for your home and where it should be placed. We’d love to help you sell your Toronto home — contact us online or call us at (416) 785-0932 to get started. Additionally, we offer an amazing selection of Toronto used furniture and office furniture.

Toronto Condo Rentals Up 12 Percent

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

As the old Jerry Reed song goes, “When you’re hot, you’re hot. When you’re not, you’re not!” Which one are you?

From September to December 2009, the Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB) reported a 12% increase (from 2008) of condominium apartment rentals with the average rent being $1667 per month. (The current building boom in Toronto will add some 15,000 condo units with an obvious percentage being available for rent, by investors.)

This truly has an impact on the temporary corporate relocation, real estate and home staging industries: More properties for relocated employees to choose from; more sales/leases for agents ;and more units for home stagers to assist marketing.

Just think about it. If a company adds furniture rental (say, with bedding, kitchen, bath, etc.) to a modern unfurnished condominium, then add cable, high-speed Internet and phone, say for 6 to 12 months….that company will save from 25% to 35% compared to a pre-furnished condo. Do the math: It all adds up!

We are in a hot market. We all should be taking advantage of Toronto’s unique real estate boom. Call me. I would love to discuss how we can create opportunities for you. Contact Executive Furniture Rentals at (416) 785-0932, or contact us online. We’re your source for used furniture in Toronto and rental furniture.

Start Off the New Year with New Furniture

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

Happy New Year, Toronto! Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? It seems the most common ones involve self-improvement — exercising more, eating healthier, etc. — and we think new furniture falls into that category. How would a new sofa help me improve myself? you might be wondering. Well, by improving the look of your home or office, you can make your space more efficient and appealing, thereby increasing your happiness. If you have a comfortable place to relax and sleep, and a comfortable place to work, that’s definitely a life improvement.

Now, we’re not saying that you have to throw everything in your home or office away and go shopping for new stuff. In many situations, furniture just might need to be repaired, cleaned and/or rearranged to improve a space and make it more appealing or functional. But if you’re in need of a lot of furniture either short- or long-term, there’s an affordable option worth considering: furniture for hire.

If you’re trying to sell your home this year, rental furniture is perfect for home staging. Perhaps the best and fastest way to make your home appealing to potential buyers, home staging really does work. Many people may not be willing to trying home staging to sell their home because they do not want to spend the money buying new furniture. But buying new furniture isn’t necessary—rental furniture is ideal, especially because it will be in the home for a limited amount of time. Plus, when the home sells, the rental furniture company will come and move the furniture out for you. No worrying about selling it or hiring movers. With rental furniture, home staging is so easy and affordable.

Even if you’re not selling your home, rental furniture can be a good bet for your situation. Imagine transforming your living room, bedroom and dining room in a matter of days with quality, gorgeous furniture. It’s possible with Executive Furniture Rentals. Contact us to find out more.
