My state has been offering rebates for years and for a 1200 sq ft house installation and the heat pump was about $3k. Going from an old forced air furnace to that just about halved my winter electric bill!

The down sides would be the outer rooms can get a bit chilly, but for me at least it’s far from a deal breaker.
