Relocating across town or even beyond can be an exciting time. You might already have new housing arranged and now it is time to proceed with selling your home. You might think that your days of home maintenance tasks are behind you but the reality is that now is the perfect time to have your air conditioners checked. Here’s why:
- HVAC Inspection – When a buyer puts in an offer on your home, the next step they’ll take is having the home inspected. The HVAC system is going to be an important part of that inspection and if a problem is found it can stall the closing on the home. It can also give them a reason to cancel the contract altogether. A better course of action is to have the inspection done ahead of time so you can resolve any issues before they can find them during their due diligence period.
- Efficiency – Some buyers also contact the power company to see what the monthly utilities have been. If your system is not as efficient as it could be, getting your air conditioners serviced a few months before you list the home for sale to improve its performance could help your home look more appealing to buyers.
Performing air conditioner services can aid you in selling your home. Look for a trusted local HVAC company who will provide you with information about the condition of the system so that your real estate agent can include in the marketing that the system has been inspected and is in good working order. Don’t be afraid to ask your HVAC company any questions you may have about your air conditioners.
