Then ignore it. If yours is below market, people looking will know it and gravitate to you.

You are in Indiana....what other source of heat do you have if you don't opt for a heat pump?

We have several SFH, and provide pest control quarterly. When new tenant moves in and I know place is clean and empty, I have them treat the interior. The rest of the time he only treats exterior unless I have a report of critters inside. So far, this has always been effective. If you have German roaches (the little bitty ones), they are difficult to get rid of. The regular big ones are easy.

Warranty is the real deal.  In fact, they will be here tomorrow  to replace one that has a bad seal that we bought nearly 4 years ago. I just did a flip and got a quote from them, and they were competitive, but I  went with a cheaper brand. Wish now that I  would have used them. FWIW.

Master, Journeyman,  etc., are union titles. You need Licensed Plumber, electrician, hvac guys that can pass an inspection and pull permits to be legit.
