Lubber Duckie 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2010 Hi, I need advice. My 2nd appointment is due soon, meaning the handing over of keys. But some of the seller's old furnitures are still in the house. Do I have to bear the cost of removing them? Or is it the seller's responsibilities? Thanks guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simple lah, if got agreement for seller to remove yet they fail to do, back charge charge the seller, show him the receipt. If no agreement, good luck to you.

jeda 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2010 i am scare of such trouble also. i wrote to my agent (everything i do is black and white ) to get seller to remove all unwanted furniture before final inspection by us before 2nd appointment. for backup (ie incase they have not done so by the inspection date), i also wrote to agent to tell him that i will give him his commission after he go back with us to our unit to inspect one more time after we get our keys - ie incase got unwanted furniture leftover or keys not in order. in case (touch wood!) anything not in order, i can hold back agent's commission to pressure him to resolve our issues; if not, i dont think the agent will bother after 2nd appointment.

If I remove, the drill holes are visible. PLs help! Typically, the drill holes are not to big, those putty ( white color) should be able to cover them... if you are going to reno, then, leave them to your reno contractor, tell them to remove and patch up before painting lor. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
