A Home warranty is not expensive and can save you hundreds of dollars on future repairs. You can purchase a warranty when you buy a home, or you can buy a warranty plan after you close on the home. When buying, inquire with your Realtor. Sometimes the Seller or Realtor will offer to pay all or part of the warranty cost. Most warranties are renewable. Protect your investment with a home warranty.

As with any insurance document, you should read the terms and conditions of your warranty carefully. It is important to understand what is covered, the limitations of your policy, and what fees you will pay upon claim to the company providing the repair. Anticipate that components will be repaired before they are replaced, and certain conditions on older homes may apply. Read your warranty carefully.
