Hi everyone!

My mom moved into a newly renovated small house 11 years ago.
She had to take over the 3-month-old kitchen (3,973€ list price) for 3,200€.
Now she has been given notice for personal use...
How much can she still sell the kitchen for, and is the previous owner even required to take it?

My mom definitely does not want to keep the kitchen! (It was all pretty low quality, I think it was from a Spanish manufacturer)

Thanks in advance

You can't force anyone to buy something. If the new occupant doesn't want it, then they simply don't want it. And after more than 10 years, the value is basically close to zero anyway.

Of course, no one can be forced, but in my mom’s case, it was basically either buy the kitchen or don’t move in at all...

Yes, and now? She is not in a similarly comfortable negotiating position, is she?

Sounds to me like she should be glad if she doesn’t have to take them along. Selling them seems unlikely based on the description. Maybe give them away to a student or someone like that in exchange for dismantling and pickup?

You only need to remove the kitchen now.
