Description
A home warranty is a one year residential service contract that provides repair or replacement coverage for the major operating systems and appliances in a home that fail due to normal wear and tear.

Why a Home Warranty?

Home Buyers' Benefits

Move in with assurance knowing your home is covered.

  • You are covered for unexpected home repair or replacement costs on many of your home's major systems and appliances.
  • Coverage is regardless of the appliances' age, make or model.
  • If it can't be fixed, we will replace it.*
  • It only takes a phone call and a small service fee to fix the problem.
  • Service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
  • You'll have budget protection knowing you only have to pay a nominal service fee per trade call.

Home Sellers' Benefits

Sell with confidence.

  • Having a home warranty as an additional feature will give you a competitive edge over other homes on the market.
  • Buyers have more confidence in your home and there is usually less negotiating in getting closer to your asking price.
  • If something breaks after the sale, there is limited liability for you. Buyers will contact the warranty company rather than calling you.
  • Protect your budget, one major breakdown before or during the sale of your home can very costly and delay things.

Realtor® Benefits

Realtors® have many of the same benefits as home sellers PLUS:

  • Satisfied clients can lead to future referrals.
  • It's an excellent selling tool in promoting the home at top market value.
  • It will build your reputation as a fair, honest and thorough real estate professional.
