Re: Home warranties and HVAC replacement
The home warranties are useless. They are a selling tactic but, as a PP wrote, they have the right to keep repairing a unit or appliance that needs to be replaced, they can take their own sweet time repairing it, etc etc etc. If you buy a home that has a home warranty, you might as well use it as much as you can but I would not count on that warranty for keeping you in heat and a/c with units that old.
HVAC units that old are going to be very inefficient and cost you a lot of money in energy bills. Do you need all 3? Can they be replaced with 1? I'd get estimates on replacements and use that in negotiating the price. I would not ask the sellers to replace them because they'll put in something cheap.
