Why are appliances, most equipment, sinks, & toilets stripped from homes before sale in New Zealand? Mortgages seemed uniquely budgeted around these empty shells.
If house payments are budgeted without plumbing & electric fixtures, doesn't this unique practice invite economic incentives for New Zealand families to attempt equipment re-fit themselves?
A tradition of owner installed equipment in New Zealand homes may explain why such perpetual DIY installations are removed entirely when properties are sold.
That is most certainly not the case here, stealing permanent fixtures like you have described,after you have sold your house, would be straight out theft!
After all, you wouldn't sell a car then whip the wheels off, take the engine out and remove the steering wheel, would you?
