1. Relatively new water heater. If you’ve had a water heater in the house for 15 years that’s not necessarily a great thing. Sure, it may still work, but it’s probably not as energy efficient as a newer one and definitely closer to having to be replaced than not.
2. Regular heater. This is like the water heater in efficiency, but it’s probably easier to prove that it’s had maintenance relatively recently, such as having the ducts cleaned out and such.
3. Refrigerator. Sure, many people will probably want to replace the refrigerator within a few years, but walking into a new home not having to purchase this is a wonderful thing. Being able to just bring one’s food over and put it into a working refrigerator puts smiles on people’s faces. These days one doesn’t have to worry about very old style and unsafe refrigerators as much as getting one that’s sizable enough to be useful.
4. Central air and heating. The days of each room having its own heater should be long gone, but there are many homes that haven’t taken care of this. The same goes for homes without central air, because it means new home owners will potentially have to buy a lot of fans. No one wants to do that in this day and age.
5. Freshly painted walls. Once again, there’s no guarantee that new owners won’t want to paint over the color of the walls, which might be white, but at least they don’t have to go through the process of cleaning, then priming, and then painting again if they don’t need to.
