Hi Bros here,

I have just sold my condo. Completion in 2 weeks time.

Am I obliged to leave behind baking oven and microwave oven provided by Developer when I bought the condo unit.

Can I remove the ovens? Worth removing them as they are branded BOSCH.

You can try.

If its fixed there (secured by screws and nails), it's a fixture that is part of the house. Same for aircon, lights, cabinets etc. You cannot remove unless your buyer agrees.

Thanks for your advice. This is what I was thinking. Both the ovens are secured, hence I have doubt in removing.

You can check with the buyer, some prefer microwave with oven.

Fixture or not depends whether the item is in the inventories listing.

I have checked the Sale Option; it clearly stipulates that the sale includes fixtures and/or fixtures. The developer has constructed a cabinet to specially house both the main BOSCH oven which is screwed to the fixture and a BOSCH microwave oven which is slotted into the cabinet.

Removing the slotted microwave will create an empty hole in the cabinet. It looks ugly. Since the cost of a Japanese brand microwave oven is less than $100, I have decided not to take it to prevent any ugly incident.

Thanks for your advice.
