Home Warranty

Home Warranty, Do You Need One?

Home Buyer, Home Warranty
Home Buyer, Home Warranty

A home warranty is a service contract that protects home owners against the cost of unexpected covered repairs or replacement on their major systems and appliances that break down due to normal wear and tear.

Home warranty coverage is for systems and appliances in good working order at the start of the contract. Home buyers can purchase their own home warranty at closing or ask the Seller to provide a home warranty during contract negotiations. Often home sellers offer home warranties with their real estate listings.

The standard home warranty is a one-year service contract that protects a resale home buyer against the cost of unexpected repairs or replacements of major systems and appliances that break down due to normal usage. Coverage is also available to home sellers during the listing and escrow period to help them keep unforeseen breakdowns from potentially tying up the close of escrow.

Home Warranty – What’s Covered

Home warranty companies have a network of licensed, insured, professional service contractors waiting to serve you. The contractors they use have been carefully screened to meet stringent service standards; who are constantly rated by their clients and home owners.

Home warranty covers items that are not covered under your homeowner’s insurance policy, filling a critical gap in the protection of your home. For example, if your dishwasher leaks and water damages the floor, your homeowner’s insurance policy may cover the damage to the floor, but not repair or replacement of the dishwasher itself. With some home warranty companies, your dishwasher is covered!

Check to see if the home warranty policy offers following items as covered. Also find out if the policy covers the full replacement cost of an item.

  • Plumbing
  • Electrical systems
  • Furnace
  • Water heater
  • Heating ducts
  • Water pump
  • Dishwasher
  • Garbage disposal
  • Stove/cooktop/ovens
  • Microwave
  • Refrigerator
  • Washer/dryer
  • Swimming pool (may be optional)

Other options are available as well. Make the best decision based on your needs and type of real estate you are purchasing.
