Does landscaping stay in a home purchase?

Arnulfo Seegars: I would say that if they are planted in the ground (not in pots that sit on the ground) that they would stay with the property. However, if you wish for the plants to remain then you should submit an addendum to the contract asking that the seller leave them. This way it is specifically covered and if the seller takes them anyway you have some recourse to either get the plants back or be compensated for them.

Reyes Brunell: Firstly, you see, you have not purchased the house, but in the process of purchasing it. Though the attractive plants are there on the compound, still the owner has the right to take away the same and you have no say. Only you can request him to keep them as is where is basis. If the owner is that much generous, he will definitely will not take away them.

Cassey Hollinghurst: I'd say that if they are in the ground, they have to stay. If they are in pots, it's trickier, since those aren't technically fixtures, and the owner! may have the right to take them with. And it is possible that they might be able to take the plants, and leave the pots, on the thought that the pots are fixtures and the plants aren't. You might want to get some idea of what those plants cost and see if you want to buy them separately in the deal, as you would with other non-fixtures. There are some very nice palm trees, for example, at my local nursery that cost several thousand dollars, and I can see that I would want to take those with me if I had them in pots. Talk to your agent and see what the local rules are on what is considered a fixture and what isn't....Show more

Glynda Darrin: The standard contract in Texas says that the landscape plants (unless they are clearly in pots) will stay with property.Your contract should say something also. In most areas plants in ground stay with property unless specifically written otherwise in contract.

Solomon Belback: the reality which you call them sturdy and ! massive tells us plenty. the only ingredient you probably did ! not remark on are the colleges. considering the fact which you intend to have a kinfolk (according to different posts) and could be there a minimum of 5-8 years, colleges are significant. you ought to consistently %. the wonderful community and colleges. That being aside, and in hassle-free terms based on your submit, i might take the sturdy residing house. It wil fee much less to very own. And as for the landscaping on the super residing house. this could nicely be a PAID service. till you intend to proceed to pay to have it seem this way, interior a million 12 months, that is going to look like all different residing house....Show more

Garry Ohmen: By all means I would make that an exception when buying the house.

Hye Caulley: Anything planted in the ground must stay with the property. Small portable pots may go with the owner. Large pots (anything that one person can't pick up and carry) must stay with the property.
