Fixtures and Fittings
A fixture is usually an item that has been annexed to a property
to such an extent that it becomes part of it, i.e. the article
cannot be removed without significant damage to the land or
building.
A fitting is more commonly regarded as an item that is easily
removable from the land or building.
Items may be defined as either landlords or tenant's fixtures
and fittings.Landlord's fixtures and fittings are usually
non structural/non material parts of the property which are
present at the start of the tenancy such as lightweight or
demountable partitions, purpose built kitchens, individual
air conditioning units and carpets.Tenant's fixtures and fittings
are things that the tenant may have added at their own cost.
Normally it is recommended that the tenant has a list of
these items and is able to prove that they have been added
by them. It may be necessary to obtain permission to add them
to the property if required to do so under the terms of the
lease.
