Sensible Heating and Cooling System Upgrades for Your Home Listing

While it is not an easy decision to make, there are many reasons to consider replacing your heating and cooling system before listing your house. Below we list some of them:

  • Stand Out – A new heating and cooling system may help your property stand out over others as buyers mull over their options with energy costs in mind.
  • Adds Value – Although it may not return 100% of your investment, having a new heating and cooling system may help your home to sell faster, and will give you higher negotiating power with potential buyers.
  • Long Warranty – Dependable heating and cooling system manufacturers typically provide warranties to cover costs of certain parts for 10 years, and cost of labor for 2 years. Such warranties tend to be transferable to incoming homeowners, in which case your potential buyers would be pleased to have that extra safety net to cover any repairs.

As every home is different, there is no clear yes or no answer when it comes to what upgrades you should make before selling your home. You should carefully consider whether upgrading your heating and cooling system is beneficial to your home for your particular circumstances, and perhaps discuss it with your Realtor. If a full heating and cooling system replacement is not in the cards, you could also consider a partial one.

Partial Heating and Cooling System Replacement

It may also be a possibility to do a partial system replacement if a full one is not in the budget or is unnecessary. Simply replacing old ductwork that has leaks or rust or adding a ductless system for adding additional temperature control in a drafty area is often a good idea that is more easily attainable than completely replacing an old HVAC system. Each of these things can add value to potential buyers and be a good selling point. Give us a call and we are happy to discuss your new heating and cooling system replacement options or take a look at your ductwork for you to help you determine if that needs any improvement.
