[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The day we signed our listing agreement we discovered the ice maker wasn't working.  We emptied out a large chunk of ice, reset it and expected it to be working the next day.  We discussed this with the realtor and decided we would get it fixed therefore we did not disclose it wasn't working.  However, we have replaced 2 parts and are waiting for a third to come in and it still isn't working.  We obviously want to be fair to the new owners, how do we determine what the fridge is worth at this point?  I have seen numbers on depreciating an appliance for a rental, is it the same for a personal home?

Fridge is 4 years old.

[b]Why not just buy a new fridge[/b]? You don't want to list the house that has a broken fridge. The buyers will eventually just ask you to replace it as part of the sales contract, so just do it now.  [/quote]

You can get a used (simple, low-tech) fridge that looks like new for $400 or less at used appliances store and they typically offer 30, 60 or 90 day warranty, sufficient to get you to the other side of the closing after which you're off the hook.[/quote]
Not gonna fly. OP already sold her house and the buyers know what the refrigerator looked like before.[/quote]
