Get it it in Writing - What Stays And What Doesent

You cannot assume that home sellers share your idea of what has to stay and what should go with them when they move, so your offer to purchase must state exactly what you expect to find on the property when it becomes yours. Here are few tips to help you fine-tune your offer so that there'll be no surprises on closing day.

Make a List of Items You Want to Stay - Your list might include:
Outdoor storage buildings
Window treatments
Garage door openers
Window or portable air conditioning units
Ornate chandeliers and other special light fixtures

List Items You Want to Go and want the sellers to remove it
Calculate Your Offer - Include or exclude the item you want to keep or remove

Take your contract and list along for a final walk-through on the day of closing. You can negotiate the price if there is any disscrepancy.

Most sellers are honest, you should never rely on an verbal agreement regarding any aspect of a real estate transaction. The contract should state clearly what stays and what goes, leaving no doubt as to the terms each party has agreed to.
