📌 Quick reminder: this reel is based on an educational real estate story, and it’s a great example of why the details in your contract matter. 🏡
The chandelier over the dining table? Gone.
The kitchen pendants? Gone.
The bathroom vanity lights? Gone.
The seller replaced them all with basic builder grade fixtures right before closing.
The buyers thought it had to be illegal, but the situation wasn’t that simple.
Here’s what buyers should know 👇
In Florida, many attached fixtures, including light fixtures, ceiling fans, and built in items, are generally included in the purchase contract unless they are specifically excluded in writing.
So if there’s a chandelier, designer fixture, appliance, or anything else you absolutely want to stay with the home, make sure it’s clearly addressed in your offer and contract.
The lesson? **Never assume.**
What you see during a showing isn’t necessarily what you’ll get at closing unless the contract says so. 📄👀
📌 Save this before your next home purchase.
