If you'd rather not buy a bed, a desk and a couch before your lease even starts, UNLV furnished rentals in Las Vegas are worth a close look. This post covers four current listings on our site that are marked as furnished, with each one's posted rent, bedrooms and baths, lease type, lease timing and Distance by Car to campus. You can see every current option on our Las Vegas off-campus listings page.

UNLV furnished rentals in Las Vegas: what's open right now

One thing up front: our listings tell us whether a place is furnished, but not what the furniture actually is. A furnished label can mean a full setup with a bed, dresser, desk, sofa and kitchen basics, or it can mean a bed frame and not much else. We don't hold that detail for any of the listings below, so treat the word as a starting point and ask each landlord for the specifics before you sign anything.

Current furnished listings near UNLV include Take over my 2026/27 lease - The Degree at $967/month, Echo 1055 lease take over at $899/month, Shared House at $1,450/month, and Near UNLV, Airport and Las Vegas STRIP at $2,200/month.


Las Vegas Furnished Listings at a Glance

Take over my 2026/27 lease - The Degree is a lease takeover listed at $967/month for one bedroom and one bath, furnished, with a Distance by Car of under 5 minutes from campus. It's on a year lease (12 months), and the listing gives its timing as Jun 2026 - July 2027, so you'd be stepping into a lease that's already running. Ask the current tenant and the property how a transfer works, what fee is charged for it, and whether anything about the rent or the terms changes once your name is on the lease.


Echo 1055 lease take over is listed at $899/month for one bedroom and one bath, furnished, and it's also under 5 minutes by car. It's on a year lease (12 months) with a lease timing of "August to July 2027". Ask what move-in date is open now and whether your first month would be prorated. The title calls it a lease take over, so ask how many months remain, which spaces you'd share, and whether any utilities are included in the price.


Shared House is a townhouse listed at $1,450/month for one bedroom and one bath, furnished, with a Distance by Car of 5 - 10 minutes. It's the only listing in this group whose lease timing reads Available Now, and it's on a year lease (12 months). The title tells you you'd be sharing the home, so ask who else lives there, how common areas and cleaning are handled, and what the house rules are before you commit to a full year.


Near UNLV, Airport and Las Vegas STRIP is a condo listed at $2,200/month with two bedrooms and two baths, furnished, under 5 minutes by car. It's on a biannual lease (6 months) with a lease timing of 10/1/2026. It isn't marked as rent by room, so if you plan to share it, confirm with the landlord that the posted price covers the whole unit, and put the split between roommates in writing. A six-month term can work well if you only need a place for one semester, but ask what happens at the end of it: whether you can renew, at what rent, and how much notice each side has to give.


Put side by side, three of the four are listed as under 5 minutes by car, and all four are furnished. The posted rents run from $967/month to $2,200/month, but these aren't the same kind of space. Three list one bedroom and one bath, one of them inside a shared townhouse, and one is a two-bedroom, two-bath condo. So compare what you actually get for the money, not just the number at the top of the listing.


UNLV furnished rentals in Las Vegas: What Furnished Really Covers

UNLV furnished rentals in Las Vegas save you the upfront cost and hassle of buying furniture, and they make moving in much simpler if you're coming from out of state or only staying for part of the year. The trade-off is that you're living with someone else's choices, and you can't assume anything about what's in the unit. Before you sign, ask the landlord for a written inventory: which rooms have a bed and mattress, whether there's a desk and chair, what's in the living area, and whether the kitchen comes with cookware, dishes and small appliances. Ask whether linens and towels are included, since you'll need to plan for them if they're not, and whether you can bring your own pieces or have something removed that you don't want. Find out who pays if a piece of furniture breaks, and how normal wear on furniture is treated compared with damage when it comes to your deposit.


Furnished doesn't change the basics of the lease, either. Check the start and end dates printed on the lease itself, not only the listing, and compare them with your academic calendar. Ask about the security deposit, any application or administrative fees, which utilities are included and which you'll set up yourself, and whether a parking spot comes with the unit. If you're signing with roommates, ask whether the lease is joint, where each tenant can be held responsible for the full rent, or individual, where you're only responsible for your own share. And for a takeover like the first listing above, ask the property directly, not just the current tenant, what the transfer process involves and when it would be approved.


Photos help too. If you can't see the unit in person, ask for a video tour that shows each room and the furniture in it, and save a copy. On move-in day, take your own dated photos of every piece and its condition, including any marks or wear that's already there. It takes a few minutes, and it's the simplest way to avoid a disagreement over your deposit when you move out.


Tips for Renting a Furnished Place Near UNLV

  • Get the furniture list in writing. Our listings only say furnished, so ask the landlord to list every item in the lease or a signed addendum before you pay a deposit.

  • Match the lease length to your plans. These four listings include year leases (12 months) and a biannual lease (6 months), so pick the term that fits the months you'll actually be in Las Vegas.

  • Use Distance by Car as your starting point. Three listings here are under 5 minutes by car and one is 5 - 10 minutes, so ask about parking where you'd live and plan for parking on campus as well.

  • Confirm dates that have already passed. Echo 1055 lease take over lists a lease timing of "August to July 2027", so ask for the real move-in date and whether your first month's rent is prorated.
