Home Warranty or NO?
Posted by New Home Resource on February 23, 2012 in
A new home purchase is one of the largest investments a person will ever make.
A Home Warranty is simply a service contract. It helps to safeguard homeowners against the high cost of repairs or replacements to the major mechanical systems and appliances that fail due to normal wear and tear. A home warranty offers the convenience of one source for most repairs, so that you can avoid the hassle of finding a service contractor in your area. When a covered system or appliance breaks down, all you need to do is contact the warranty company to report the problem! A qualified, pre-screened service technician will contact you to schedule an appointment that works for you. You can request service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s that simple.
On average, homeowners/contract holders will have 2 service calls per year, saving them hundreds to thousands of dollars on repair/replacement costs. See below:
Have your agent help you arrange for a home warranty at closing. Sometimes even the seller will pay toward the warranty cost!!
