What can you take with you when you sell your home?🏡
Moving out of your home is such an exciting time, but it can also get a bit overwhelming, especially when you’re figuring out what you can take with you and what needs to stay behind. 🏡 Here’s a friendly guide to help you navigate this process smoothly!
What Can You Take with You?
When it’s time to pack up, it’s important to know what’s coming with you and what stays. Generally, things like your kitchen and laundry appliances, outdoor furniture, and potted plants are free to come along unless you’ve made a different arrangement in the contract. 🌿
Sometimes, you can negotiate with the buyer to leave behind larger or more cumbersome items you no longer need or want. It’s all about finding what works best for both parties!
Tips to Help the New Owners
You’ve spent time getting to know your home, and chances are, you’ve picked up a few tricks along the way. Why not share some of that knowledge? A little note with instructions for any appliances or fixtures you’re leaving behind can be super helpful. For example, leave the alarm system codes, tips on using the air conditioner, or even the names of the maintenance companies you use. 🛠️
And if the new owners are new to the area, why not throw in some local tips? Recommend your favorite coffee spots, restaurants, or nearby activities to help them feel at home faster. ☕️🍽️
What Stays with the House?
Some things are usually part of the sale and will stay with the property. This includes items like curtain rods, curtains, light fittings, fixed floor coverings, ovens, cooktops, range hoods, smoke detectors, ceiling fans, and any built-in fixtures. 🛋️
Sometimes, items like freestanding dishwashers, microwave ovens, or built-in shelves are also agreed upon to stay. Just make sure these details are clear in the contract so there are no surprises on settlement day!
By knowing what’s what before you start packing, you’ll have a smoother move and a happier handover to the new owners. Happy moving! 🚚✨

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
