HVAC effects on appraised value

[Isabel Owen]

We are attempting to determine if it is worth it to buy/install HVAC prior to appraisal. How much have you seen HVAC impact appraised value? We are definitely going to get one, it is just a matter of managing cash outlay and timing of refi.

Few houses in the historic district in which the property is located have HVAC systems, rather, most have window units as the houses are relatively small.

Thanks for the help!
