Selling Your House.... WHICH EXTRAS ARE IN THE. DEAL? There have been instances where house sales have fallen apart because of "extras." "Extras" are those appliances or furnishings which are riot considered to be an integral part of the house or property. They can run the gamut from carpeting and drapes to lighting Main -es and the refrigerator. As the seller, It Is wise to make a list as early as possible of the Items you'll bo including as part of the purchase price, those which you absolutely must take with you, and those Items on which you'll negotiate with the buyer. Part of our normal procedure when taking on your listing Is to double-check on i'extras" you might be overlooking. Would It be better to take your washer and dryer, sell them to the buyer at a bargain price, or Include them as part of the house package? Would the CB antenna on your roof bring an extra few dollars, dr would It be worthwhile for you to remove it? Would the buyer really be willing to pay extra if you leave your custom made shower curtain?
