Replacing windows
As part of my thinking re selling my house, I wonder about window replacement.
I have a 3 bay window in the dining area, one kitchen window, and the large living room window that have condensation between the panes. The 3 bay and kitchen miniblinds are almost always closed because of the view--the bedrooms of the house next door.
I just had a SEARS salesman here: $4500 for all of them, 20 years, transferrable warranty. Firm price, even if they find (or do) damage that needs repaired.
Based on what I know today, I would plan to list my house at about $115000, without new windows. If I replace them, is it going to bring enough value that I could raise the price to cover them?.
