- Investing in quality bedroom furniture is wise for renters as it can easily transition to future living spaces.  - Covering 80% of your floors with plush rugs and using felt rug pads can significantly reduce noise in apartments.  - Using high-wattage incandescent bulbs and white or ivory lampshades can effectively brighten a room, even in rentals.
