Re: okay, another WWYD... I find this odd...
I'd give it to her since her father passed and she has sentimental feelings for it. Maybe she didnt know it was in the contract since she said in the note she thought her brother told you she wanted it. sounds like the brother is handling the sale and it could have been an oversight.
I wouldnt be able to use something that I know someone else especially a father made for his family and the daughter would like to keep it that way.
Its just a table an object to you- and if you are going to demo it why are you trying to get money from her for the gaping holes it will leave when the wall will be gone? 
Remember what comes around goes around.

Whoa, that's harsh!!!
Read the OP again and you'll see that she said she plans to keep the table, even after renovations.
Are you the daughter?

Re: okay, another WWYD... I find this odd...
My father helped me put my kitchen together in my old co-op that we sold. Did I want the cabinets that he made? No. If, one day, you decided to junk the table and put in a new one, then you should contact her. Other than that...it's yours and that's it.

Unless they plan on repairing the hole it would leave if it was taken out...then NO I wouldn't give it to her.

You bought the house and the table that's built into it. It's yours, she has no claim to it.
Send the note to your lawyer and have him or her contact the sellers lawyer and put an end to it.
Please don't feel bad or feel guilty. It's your house and it's your table.
ITA. If they wanted the table that badly they should've expressed it way earlier in the game. Not at the walk through. If you ever decide to get rid of it, give her a call then. Until that point, the table it yours and don't feel guilty!

She's not demanding the table or causing a scene - right ? She just left you a note asking that if you ever DO decide to get rid of the table, she'd appreciate it if you contacted her and let her take it rather than putting it out on the curb with the garbege -
So, just do that - stick her note in with your house paperwork, and if you ever decide you don't want/need the table anymore, give her a call and let her know -
Seems pretty simple to me - I don't see why you should have to feel bad about it -
I agree. She is asking for it tomorrow... just down the line. Maybe send her a note that you are keeping it, but will keep her in mind if you do ever get rid of it.

Re: okay, another WWYD... I find this odd...
I think the way they went about it was totally wrong. If it meant THAT much to them...they should have made it very clear they were taking the table. Or simply, pay the money to have the table removed, wall repaired...before they started showing the house.
BUT, if it were me, and I was planning on a demo of the kitchen...I'd give her the table.

no Im not the daughter  and I didnt mean it mean, I was just saying that remember that saying that you would want good to always come to you when you do good.
yes I did read what she wrote and responded on my original post as well that I couldnt keep something that I knew meant so much to someone else especially when the father is deceased.
i could never look at it everyday the same. move on start fresh is what I would do. If it didnt have that type of sentimental background then I would keep it but not for a memory from her dad.
