Census figures put the median build year in Kendall at 1978, so a typical house here has about 48 years on it. A lot of these homes are on their second or third system by now. The ductwork is usually original, and leaky joints are common. About 19,000 households here own their home, 61.4% of the occupied total.

Between 2020 and 2025, NOAA's Storm Events Database logged 12 hail days and 29 days with damaging thunderstorm winds in Miami-Dade County. The largest hail reported was 1.75 inches across. Hail flattens the thin aluminum fins on condenser coils and cuts airflow. After a big storm, take a look at the outdoor unit; homeowners insurance often covers the damage. Miami-Dade County also had 6 tornado days in that period. In Kendall, 20% of residents are 65 or older. For older adults, a house with no heat in January or no AC during a heat wave is a medical risk. Mention it when you call, since many companies put those calls first.
