please make sure that you have good photos of each of the appliances that are to be left in the villa...friends of ours bought from on-line publicity photos and when they arrived to do the walk-thru before closing they found that several of the appliances had been swapped out for lesser quality pieces!

they told their villages rep that it was really not a problem - as long as the appliances in the photos that they had were returned before closing OR that a suitable appliance allowance could be worked out and paid to them at closing - which was later that afternoon!

the villages sale rep was quite taken aback and could not believe that the appliances could be an issue to prevent closing! hah! guess he never dealt with buyers from jersey before!

end of story...they got just what they wanted - the seller was royally pi**ed - and each of the real estate reps had to kick in to make the appliance allowance a reality!
