Generally, anything that is 'fixed' to the property becomes a part of the property.
In your example, the "dishwasher, light fixture, etc." would be fixtures.... however, if they simply plug into an outlet, they would likely NOT be fixtures.

as soon as we got behind in pay. we contacted bank of america(mort.holders)and they said toobad.fine.they then was charging us 1,000.00 a month in intrest.our mort.is only 750.00.at one point we thought we were caught up.but we didnt know the intrest.is that legal?
It isn't clear what you are asking. How EXACTLY did your mortgage go from $750 per month to $1,000???

?????????????

we do not know.bank of america will not speak with us,and we have calls into thier att. and they wont return them.our lawyer doesnt know and why he cant find out i dont know.also the people that got the highest bid were sneaky.they came over yesterday to buy the house before the auction.saying they needed to be in in 2 weeks.and with my type of forecloser it has to be approved by a judge and can take up to 90 days,but at least 45 days.our attorney contacted thier attorney and ours said to wait till we hear from him.well the people and/or thier attorney contacted the attorney that was doing the auction and she got the papers ready to stop the auction,but the proper papers were not provided in time.they lied to us(maybe)just to get in to see it.i dont know they also offered 10,000.00 over what we owed .all this is very strange.i could even tell you more but it just gets more weird by the day.thank you

Im in Illinois,and when our house was foreclosed on by Fairbanks Capital, we were DEMANDED by some guy to meet us at the house (they changed the locks already) and we had 2 hours to remove all of our belongings. He said whatever we left behind would be thrown out. They did, they threw out so much of our stuff into a dumpster that there was no way to get it out. In fact that told us we werent allowed to. We saw some of the evictors take some of our stuff and put it in their trunks. So many of our things were stolen. So get what you can, because otherwise they will take it home to their families or just throw it away
