I wasn’t super eager to sell the house.
This I made clear from the very beginning.
But, I also realized that this was an extraordinary real estate market. It was almost stupid not to sell the house really. But now that I’m living in a rented duplex with weak heating and cooling, I sure do want my house back. What maybe makes the whole thing even that much harder to take is the fact that our home was like perfect when we sold it. In order to get top dollar, we made some big time upgrades to our home. The HVAC equipment was replaced and man, what a replacement. The HVAC equipment that we had installed was the latest in HVAC technology. The heating and cooling equipment itself was top notch. Plus, it was super efficient with such a high SEER rating. I was stunned by how much our heating and cooling utility costs went down once the new HVAC unit was installed. But our home also came with a smart thermostat and zone controlled HVAC. That meant that there were 5 independent temperature zones in the house and each with its own independent thermostat. It was quite the set up. We put the HVAC upgrade in first prior to the kitchen upgrades. So at least I got to enjoy that awesome heating and cooling set up for awhile prior to closing on the sale. Now, we are in a bit of a holding pattern. Paring down our stuff was essential and the condo has served that purpose. The lack of quality heating and air is really motivating me and my wife to find the next spot so we can settle down there with the sort of HVAC we just left.
