Home Warranties Benefit Buyers and Sellers

Whether you're buying or selling a home, a home warranty is an excellent investment. If you're selling a home, the last thing you want to do is spend a lot of money, if a system or appliance stops working. And if you're buying a home or you already own your home, it's nice to know that you are protected from expensive repair and replacement costs.

 

Whether you are a buyer or seller you'll appreciate the numerous benefits and conveniences that you get from a home warranty.

 

Benefits for Sellers

• Most buyers will ask for a warranty anyway.  Most sellers aren't aware that they can include seller coverage during the listing period also and is often free.

• Attract more first-time home buyers. Provide peace of mind for buyers who might be intimidated by the high cost of repairing or replacing systems or appliances.

• No after-sale worries. If a breakdown happens after closing, the buyer will turn to the warranty for help in most cases.

 

Benefits for Buyers

• Save money and protect your budget. Rather than paying hundreds or thousands of dollars to repair or replace an appliance or home system, you'll pay a standard deductible per service call, per trade, on covered components.

• Most warranty companies will repair or replace covered systems and appliances no matter the age, make or model. Plus, there are no home square footage restrictions and no inspection required.

• Most warranties are renewable and for a few hundred dollars per year, you can continue your coverage.
