? about foreclosure and appliances

[HHM]

It so happens that when we were out running our errands this morning, 'Hub and I passed a couple of 'spec' houses that are for sale, and decided to stop and look. Neither one had a stove, refigerator, or dishwasher, though the plumbing was there, as was a range hood. Now it may be that these items will come when the houses are sold--if they are--and are simply not there to keep them from being stolen.

Business is not booming for these homes, and there was no person on duty, or literature available that would answer those questions.

On another note, we had a friend that sold her home several years ago, and she took her stand-alone appliances, as described by HHM, with her. The only thing that she had to leave that she did not want to, was an antique-looking electric stove that she had paid major $$$$ for. Because this house was a restored Victorian, and she expressly bought this stove for it, the prospective buyer insisted that it stay. I am not sure if it was covered in the sales price or not. There were some other issues with that particular sale.

I hope this helps.

In the sale scenario, the purchase agreement will usually specify what stays and go and it becomes a point of negotiation.

I by no means trashed my house.. there are no holes in the wall, all the plumbing is in tact, ac unit is still outside.. I just took my kitchen appliances due to that I bought them , and wanted to use em in my new place. my current landlord donated the appliances to a local family who lost most of what they own, due to a fire. I have no reason to trash my home, its our mistake that is has gone into fourclosure.

Not even one little kick to the drywall behind a door?

Did you take all the lightbulbs?
