With the soft sellers’ market that many areas of the country have been experiencing over the past few years many Realtors®, builders, and sellers are offering more incentives to buyers.

Danny,

A home warranty is peace of mind for everyone involved in the transaction! The seller can be assured he won't get called blaming them for a water heater problem after closing accusing them they knew it had a problem..its taken care of by making a simple call to the warranty company!

I advise my buyer's to obtain a home warranty. I have also had seller's heed my advice and offer one to the buyer. We have a few agents in our company that purchase them for their buyer's as closing gifts. What better way to say Thank You to your customer?
