Common Q&A About Buying Your Home - Q & A
Q: When a home is sold who gets the furnishings?
A: Any personal property which is permanently attached to the house (such as fixtures, built-in bookcases, drapery rods, tacked down carpeting, or a furnace), automatically stays with the house, unless it states otherwise within the sales contract. Anything that isn't nailed down is negotiable (such as appliances which aren't built in – washers, driers, refrigerators). Some sellers are willing to negotiate when it comes to more personal items, a piano for example.
