Property Ownership

A purchase and sale agreement that includes personal property (appliances, furniture) should list them specifically because:

APersonal property automatically transfers with real property
BFixtures are real property; personal property must be specifically listed to transfer✓ Correct
CUtah law requires all personal property to be listed in an addendum
DOnly licensed personal property appraisers can transfer personal property

Explanation

Real property (including fixtures) transfers automatically with the deed. Personal property does not—it must be specifically included in the purchase contract to transfer. The key question is whether an item is a fixture (real property) or personal property.
