We are hopefully exchanging on the flat we are buying next week. We have been looking through the paperwork where the vendor ticks the boxes about what they are taking and leaving behind. Our vendor is taking the bathroom mirrors, the toilet roll holders, the curtain rails, and the light fittings in most rooms.
We have sold our flat recently and would not even have considered doing this! And we had really expensive ceiling fans in all rooms and lovely bathroom lighted mirrored cabinets!
Anyway, what I want to know is what are the rules of what they leave behind when they take this type of stuff. So, if they are taking the light fittings, do they have to leave a working light? And if they take the bathroom mirrors, do they have to fill the wholes and re-tile where they took it off?
We are doing an inspection on the day of completion before releasing the money (and this has been written into the contracts) so I would like to know what I am looking for.

Why would someone take the toilet roll holder? And what do you have to leave behind?
