Buyer FAQ: Fireplace Homes
Do home inspectors check fireplaces?
Yes—general inspectors do a visual check, but you’ll want a licensed chimney professional for a Level 2 inspection if you plan regular use.

How much does a chimney liner cost?
Ballpark $1,500–$4,000 depending on height, bends, and material. Inserts and stoves may change this.

Is a gas fireplace better than wood?
For convenience and low maintenance, gas wins. For heat during outages and ambiance, wood/pellet can be great—just budget for upkeep.

Can I add a fireplace to a condo?
Often electric is allowed; gas/vented may be limited by HOA rules and vent paths. Always check the master deed/bylaws.

Will a fireplace add resale value?
Buyers frequently pay a premium for well-designed living spaces with a fireplace—particularly in historic or cold-weather markets.
