How do I sell a fully furnished house ?

I'd like to sell my furniture with my house. How do I sell a fully furnished house? I don't want to negotiate pieces and I don't want to deal with the hassle of trying to sell off all of it separately. I can't take it with me to my next location. Can I include all the furniture in the list price? Or will that turn off potential buyers?

Generally speaking, yes you can! Ask your Realtor to state the terms of furnishings included in the MLS listing. A list would be helpful so as to eliminate any questions or issues at closing if there are some things you decide to take with you.

Selling a fully furnished home is absolutely possible—and in many cases, it can be a unique selling point, especially for second-home buyers, investors, or out-of-state buyers looking for a turnkey property. If you don’t want to deal with piecing out the furniture or taking it with you, the best approach is to include it as part of the offering, but keep a few things in mind: Yes, you can include furniture in the list price, but it's best to treat the furnishings as a separate bill of sale or included “at no additional value” in the contract. This helps avoid appraisal issues, since lenders typically won’t finance furniture as part of the home's value. Disclose clearly in your listing that the home is being sold fully furnished. Highlight it as a convenience and value-add, not a complication. Avoid listing it item-by-item. Instead, say something like “home is being sold fully furnished as shown” to make it clear you're not open to negotiating individual pieces. Your agent can position this as a lifestyle sale, which may appeal to the right buyer—especially if the furnishings are stylish and in good condition. While some buyers may not need the furniture, others will see it as a huge bonus. The key is working with an agent who can market it the right way and position the furnishings as added convenience, not added cost.

he trick is to keep the furniture separate from the house paperwork. Lenders do not like to see furniture included in the price of the home because a mortgage is for real estate, not sofas and tables. If you include it in the contract, the bank might reject the loan. The Solution: Agree on a price for the house. Agree on a separate price for the furniture. Use a Bill of Sale for the furniture (like selling a car) and keep it completely off the real estate contract.
