You've got questions. I've got answers -- a match made in heaven, I think! ⁣
⁣
For the next few Fridays, I’ll share answers to some of YOUR most common real estate questions — a “Frequently Asked Fridays” of sorts! ⁣
⁣
First up? A question I often get from homebuyers: ⁣
⁣
Q: Are kitchen appliances included in the sale of a home? ⁣
⁣
A; As a general rule, if an item is built-in or attached to the home (think bookshelves, window treatments, light fixtures, etc.), it's included in the sale of the home. Kitchen appliances typically fall under this “rule” unless otherwise specified by the sellers. Ask your realtor for a copy of the seller’s disclosure so you can make note of any items that don’t convey. ⁣
