My buddy has been having a taxing time buying a house.
She is too picky with her decision.
I told her at this point she needs to write the houses she wants the most on a card & put it in a hat. She told me it is a serious decision (which I do agree) even though she has becoming certainly indecisive with this whole process. After a week of deciding she finally made her pick. She chose a smaller condo off of a side street. She got a certainly fantastic deal on it however there were some things that she needed to buy & replace. I got a call from her the other afternoon. She told me that she had an appointment with an HVAC serviceman. She told her that she certainly needed a updatement with her HVAC system. She was a little frustrated hearing this because it would cost her a few thousand dollars. She told me that the first thing that the serviceman did was do a manual & commercial load calculation. This would allow my buddy to have the respected size for her new HVAC system. If this calculation didn’t occur, she could have the wrong HVAC system size. If a component is oversized & is too giant for a home, it can increase the capital cost at the time of replacement & extra costs to when the HVAC system runs. I was curious to know all of this because I didn’t realize that an HVAC system had to be sized. Now I know for when I own my condo someday.
