With a Sky+ box (where you have posted on here) you own the equipment so you can do with it as you see fit.

You own the dish, so you can do what you choose with it.

Sky doesn't take down dishes at all.

 

Typically for a house sale there will be a form from your solicitor where fixtures and fittings get listed, and the dish will be one of those.

 

If you did choose to remove it (and there's no reason to do so) you'd be expected to make good the brickwork and cable entry hole, so it's really not worth the effort and expense unless that's a condition of sale.

Sky Q boxes are loaned.  Dish ownership still transfers to the occupant upon installation.
