Document a kitchen takeover fairly and transparently
A kitchen combines built-in units, appliances, wear and personal price expectations. A single line saying “complete kitchen” is therefore particularly likely to cause disagreement.
Separate the kitchen and its appliances sensibly
Kitchen units may be recorded as one related item. Valuable appliances such as the oven, hob, dishwasher or refrigerator should also be described separately so that condition and price remain traceable.
- Kitchen units and worktop
- Oven and hob
- Dishwasher
- Refrigerator and freezer
- Lighting and agreed accessories
Make the condition visible
In addition to an overview, photographs of the worktop, fronts, interiors and existing damage are useful. Record the make, model and visible wear of appliances where available.
Approve price and takeover together
Ordivant does not calculate a binding value. The parties enter the negotiated price and document the version that both have actually approved.
Frequently asked questions
Does Ordivant calculate the kitchen's value?
No. It records the price agreed by the parties and does not provide a valuation.
Should appliances be listed separately?
Yes, especially where condition, age or price matters to the agreement.
Can the takeover payment be made through Ordivant?
No. Ordivant does not hold the payment between the parties.
