Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in San Marcos.

Super easy & straightforward process. The team in the San Marcos store is super helpful and accommodating. We’ve furnished 3 different rooms over the years with Buddy’s and now are back shopping with them again. We’ve had furniture for as long as five years and it’s stood the test of time. The quality is amazing!

Buddy's Home Furnishings

We have been previous customers of Buddy's San Marcos location. Today we decided to purchase a bed since we bought one online from Nectar and it is the worst bed ever. Claudia greeted us the moment we entered the business. She came over and asked questions and got us started for a lease agreement right away. She is very informational, thorough in description of sale , and very friendly. We appreciate her kindness and professionalism. We will definitely be doing more business with Claudia as soon as we move in September.

I'm always Good!!!!

My family and I were looking for the perfect upgrade for our living room and Claudia at Buddy's Home Furniture DID NOT disappoint. Great service and SO accommodating to our every request. We got a great deal and fast delivery and are officially enjoying our new sectional! Thank you so much Claudia and your team for all your help! If you're looking for good and honest service for your furniture needs, I definitely recommend giving buddy's your business.
