With/without Furniture

Whether it’s a new property or re-sale: check what furniture, fixtures and fittings are being included and what is being excluded in the sale and get your lawyer/solicitor to get it in writing. Again, why not haggle over the cost of furniture.

Some developers may have conditions relating to lettings and funiture packs. You may want to go along with the rental scheme they are offering. Some rental schems will offer you 5 weeks use of your apartment each year if you sign up to their letting agreeement. In this case you may not be able to buy anything other than what they say you can have in that development, no extra flod up beds etc or different linen. If you do install something other than what was agreed you may have to pay for an item to be removed.

If you are going with the developments renting scheme, check  the arrangements for replacing damaged goods, is it a shared cost between you and the rental scheme or will it come out of your share of the rental income?

Those that do not choose the developments rental scheme can arrange to buy their own furniture and kitchen items.
