Appliances for a New Flip

Hello

I have a property in Baltimore that I have been working on for sometime. Its a row house and almost ready to be listed now. All the connections for the appliances are now done and ready. I am confused as whether install the appliances or not, and let them sit there. One option can be to give the buyer a credit towards the appliances. Other could be to let the buyer know that appliances will be installed shortly, or any other option. 

In expert opinion would installing the appliances assist in selling the property quickly..etc..Any tips would be nice...Thanks

 The market will tell you whether or not you need appliances.  Review recently sold comparables along w/ pending and active.  See if they included appliances or not.  Also check what kind of appliances they provided.  Also check the days on market for properties with and without appliances.  If you're concerned about appliances sitting in the property then either include a credit or a brochure showing the type of appliances that will be installed should be at the home for showings.
