Another point of view is, when you look at a house, if the roof and or HVAC was just replaced, chances are they installed the cheapest to get the house sold. But if both are a couple of years old, chances are the homeowners did a quality replacement because at the time they weren't considering selling and were planning on living there.

I will also say, many here in the Villages feel their home is worth more than it actually is and if it's been well maintained, they want "top dollar". There is no way you are going to get "top dollar" for your home with a roof or HVAC system that only has a year or two of life left.
