Our house is 34 years old and is at the point where major systems are needing replaced. In the past two years, we've had to replace our washer/dryer, water softener, microwave, dishwasher, and fireplace, and we've had to have the torsion springs on our garage door replaced, need a new front door because is is incredibly drafty, and now we're going to need a new AC in the next year or two. This is on top of windows and a roof we had redone 7 years ago. It's been tough on the bank account, that's for sure.
