    I was wondering if anyone can shed some light on whether it is legal for a seller to take attached property such as cabinets and cabinet hardware when they sell their property?
    I am buying a property and i have been reading that anything that is attached to the property is consider to be part of the property and cannot be unscrewed or taken apart…
    These cabinets are screwed into the garage and it would b pretty tough to take them apart, but not impossible….
    If they do take them, can I hold legal action against them?

    IANAL but by convention the things you mention typically convey with the property. I do not know if it is ‘illegal’ for the prior owner to take these with them but you could certainly bring it up as an issue in the final walk through before you close escrow.

    I thought it was illegal unless its conveyed in the listing paperwork, no?

    I had to disclose that I planned to take a dining room fixture with me when I sold my house. I also had to buy and install a replacement (not as nice… no one said it had to be nice) before closing.

    My understanding is that things that are physically attached are assumed to convey… So kitchen cabinets convey. Shutters that are screwed in, convey. The curtain rod brackets convey. The actual curtains are up for negotiation. Light fixtures (wall or ceiling mounted convey). Lamps do not.
