In your day-to-day life, there are few things as important to your comfort as your home’s HVAC system. At Faught Service Company, we want you to know that beyond your own comfort, your HVAC system can have effects even when you’re selling your home. By understanding how your HVAC system can impact your home’s value, you’ll be able to make any necessary changes to ensure you net the highest possible profit from the sale of your home.
Creates an Impression of Care
It’s easy to make the living area of a home look presentable for an open house. With a coat of paint and perhaps some new carpet, you’ve got a great-looking home that’s sure to attract attention. However, savvy buyers know to look beyond the facade and into the hidden areas of a home, such as the mechanical aspects. If you’ve had your HVAC system maintained by a company like Faught Service Company in Austin, TX, this commitment to taking care of your home will show, impressing potential buyers in the process.
Promotes Attention-Grabbing Appeal
When buyers start down the road toward buying a new home, everything is exciting. After looking at dozens of online home listings, though, every home starts to look the same. To grab the attention of multiple buyers, you need a few standout elements in your listing that’ll help put you on buyers’ shortlists.
One great way to do this is to advertise a new or recently replaced HVAC system. This attracts potential buyers’ attention because it shows you care about every aspect of your home. It also attracts attention because buyers see immediate savings and peace of mind if they choose your home.
Prevents Mildew Growth
To a certain extent, you can remove or cover over mold and mildew that has grown in your home. However, it can be difficult to eliminate all the evidence, especially if you have savvy buyers touring your home.
That’s one of the many reasons we at Faught Service Company recommend keeping your HVAC system, specifically your air conditioner, properly maintained. With proper maintenance, your air conditioner will be able to keep your air dehumidified so it’ll be much more difficult for mold and mildew to grow. If you don’t have a mold problem, you won’t have to worry about covering it up when it’s time to sell your home.
It Can Prevent a Failed Inspection
If you have an aging HVAC system installed in your home, the home inspection can be a major turning point in your efforts to sell your home. That’s because a good home inspector may find issues with your HVAC system that can be a dealbreaker for potential buyers.
If that happens, you’ll be faced with repairing or replacing your HVAC system at the last minute or trying to find another buyer who will likely purchase your home at a much lower price. Either way, by taking care of your HVAC system ahead of time, you’ll be able to rest easy in the latter stages of the selling process with the confidence that you’ll likely receive the full asking price.
Affects a Buyer’s Perception
When a buyer tours your home, you want them to experience the best aspects of your home. You can help them do this by creating a comfortable and pleasant environment to engage all of their senses. At Faught Service Company, we’ve seen how an HVAC system can play a key role in setting this scene of perfection. For one, you need to have a reliable HVAC system that can maintain a constant temperature while potential buyers are touring your home.
In addition, you want to be sure your HVAC system doesn’t make any odd noises or release any odd odors that could be turn-offs to someone going through your home with a fine-toothed comb. Therefore, before buyers stop by, walk through your home and try to experience it as they would to see if any environmental factors need to be addressed.
