What the appliances are not included?
Posted by Colleen Kulikowski in Buyer Resources, Cambria
Over on a social network there has been a lengthy discussion regarding appliances and the sale of a home that I thought it would be important to discuss.
This discussion was started by a home buyer that thought that the appliances were included when they wrote the contract and were surprised to be asked if they wanted to purchase them just before closing. During the time they toured the home it was discussed that the appliances were included. But their Realtor did not write it into the contract.
What you offer on a Western New York home is dependent on many things. Do you want to offer above or below the asking price? Do you want the appliances included?

The buyers are understandably upset. Don’t let this be you!
This is an important issue, because many times buyers are cash strapped right after a purchase, so having appliance included could affect their offer price. Or they may be remodeling and do not want them. Some people do not want to use appliances that someone else has used.
