Furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E)
Normally used in real estate with business or commercial applications such as bed and breakfasts, this term can also apply to personal, non-commercial items. Articles considered to be FF&E are personal property unless they are permanantly attached or affixed to real estate. Under the terms of most commercial leases, FF&E are to be removed by the tenant upon expiration of the lease, and are therefore personal property. Examples of FF&E include computers, office furniture, shelving, beds, etc. Synonymous with trade fixture.
