A Realtor’s Favorite Places to Buy Furniture

Orange County

• Just Like the Model (Irvine) — this is my FAVORITE. They get deliveries from model homes where the furniture has barely been used. They also get overstock from some furniture manufacturers. They get restocks throughout the week, so there’s always new inventory.
• Habitat for Humanity’s Restore (Santa Ana, Anaheim) — this is better for a rental or if you’re into refurbishing furniture. It’s typically full of donated furniture. Sometimes you can find a great piece though! They also have remnant tile and appliances in stock!
• HD Buttercup OC Outlet Costa Mesa

LA

• Crate and Barrel Outlet (El Segundo) — this is only a test store, so it’s not permanent, but if it’s still around, I definitely recommend going. I think their restock day is Wednesday, so there’s usually a line out the door on Thursday AM. This blog has a great guide!
• Habitat for Humanity’s Restore (Multiple locations) — this is better for a rental or if you’re into refurbishing furniture. It’s typically full of donated furniture. Sometimes you can find a great piece though! They also have remnant tile and appliances in stock!

Ontario

• Pottery Barn and West Elm Outlet — great deals. They have their own delivery service, too!
