How an AC System can Affect Home Value

Buying a home is perhaps one of the largest financial investment you can make. So, when it’s time to sell your home, a new or well-maintained heating and cooling system can add greater appeal and enhance your home’s resale value.

That said, here are a few reasons why you might consider replacing your old heating and air conditioning system BEFORE putting your home on the market for sale.

Selling Edge.

Having a brand new HVAC system can give you the edge you need when selling your home. Particularly in the Phoenix metro area, for many home buyers this is one feature that may mean the difference between buying your home or that of a competing seller because it’s one less hassle and expense a home buyer needs to worry about if they choose to make an offer on your home. Additionally, many home buyers realize that a new heating and cooling system can save them money on their energy bills because it will run more energy efficiently than a much older one.

Less Noise.

Who wants to hear a noisy, rattling 15+ year old AC unit when they are viewing your home?  Certainly not a potential home buyer. A brand spanking new HVAC system should run much more quietly than a much older unit that you’d replace. That can be music to the ears of someone who may be potentially interested in buying your home.

Brand Appeal.

Most people recognize quality brands, whether it’s a big screen TV or HVAC system. Having a new, brand name AC/Heating system with a reputation for high quality and reliability, rather than a lesser known brand, can make your home more appealing to a potential home buyer.

Minimize Delay/Negotiating.

When you accept an offer to sell your home, the buyer will likely do a home inspection (especially if a mortgage lender is involved). If the home inspector points out that you have a very old HVAC system that is near the end of it’s useful life, you might be asked to replace it before the closing, which could delay the closing, or the buyer could ask for a credit towards replacement, which could add a little more back and forth time in negotiating the amount of the credit.  It may be wiser to replace your HVAC system before you let any home buyers see it.
