Can I take a plantings with me after selling?
I know, it sounds petty... but can I take a couple outdoor plants with me after selling? There's some I've worked really hard to nurture and grow. I'd really like to take them with me to my new home. I'm happy to replace them with something else for the buyer. I don't want to turn off a buyer, but I'd really like to take the plants with me.

Absolutely -- as long as you are specific what you will be removing at the time the offer is being made/accepted. Both need to agree on the removal and if you will replace with like kind. Always best to pot up prior to listing. Saves a lot of miscommunication. Potted plants do not convey with the sale -- only the inground ones.

Not unless you have specifically excluded them in the listing agreement.

Hi Charity, Keep in mind everything is negotiable. You are selling "Your" home. Just be sure to note anything that is not included in your sale on the listing. You may even offer to replace with new plantings.

You can exclude the plants when you sign the listing or before you get an offer. After you receive an offer you would need to negotiate it with the buyer.

Everything is negotiable and it matters what was negotiated within the contract. Yes you should exclude things in the listing agreement but some agents forget to add that to the MLS and the contract. Anything you want as a seller needs to be disclosed so just remember to tell your agent what you want to convey or convey in the sale of your home.
