Does it make sense for me to replace the windows in my house?

lindee3000 asked:


Lived in house for 5 years. I have 3 double hung windows and 3 slider windows. Would like to move Spring 2009 if the house sells. Current windows are 30 years old with metal frames, front big double hung windows do not fit/operate correctly, one slider window leaks. I live in a loud neighborhood.

Should I replace all windows (and sliding glass door which I am doing for sure) for $4400 installed? Does this makes sense? Will it make the house more marketable? Who knows, I may be stuck in this house longer than I thought!

New windows would be vinyl, low-e/argon gas windows with a transferrable warranty

Thanks!
Just wanted to clarify:

Sliding glass door: $1600
3 large double hung & 3 large slider windows: $2800
Follow-up question:
Would 25% cheaper be more in line with what I should expect?
Received another quote:
$3920 for 3 double hung, 3 sliders, and a sliding glass door ($1500) OR
$4400 for 9 double hung windows, and one sliding glass door. Thoughts?
