Potential source of disputes:
Some of the biggest fights between Buyers
and Sellers arise when the Seller attempts to remove an item the Buyer
believes is part of the property.
A Seller might ask for a higher price if the
sale includes appliances not usually included with the sale of a home. The
general rule is that anything bolted down or connected by a gas line is
included in the sale of a house.

Chandeliers and wall clocks are technically part of the property. If they
are valuable family heirlooms, take them down! Replace them with good
looking, inexpensive items before showing the house.
