Discussion about
Is it custom for the seller to leave the curtain and shade ( custom made to fit!) to the buyer? I am in the middle of signing the contract ( I signed already ),the seller wants to NEGOTIATE the above NOW. During my viewing the condo, neither the seller nor the agent ( she is supposed to be the DUAL AGENT :))) EVER mentioned the CUSTOM MADE shades is NOT included in the offering. Did I made mistake by assumed the shades is part of the condo?

There were no window treatments when I purchased my condo. I had some nice blinds, sheers, and drapes installed. When and if I sell, I would certainly leave them for the new owner. So, the shades are not actually part of the deal. What is the seller planning to do with them, if not leave them there? Spend time and money to have them removed?

You probably liked the shades, when you saw them; while being shown the apartment.Did you share your admiration with the seller or agent? In any case, the shades helped to seal the deal,for you. The seller should be happy to leave them.

your contract specifically lists what is excluded. If the shades are not on the list than they stay.
