Understanding Home Warranties
A home warranty is a protection plan that covers the costs of repairing or replacing major home systems and appliances. It provides peace of mind for homeowners who want to ensure their investment in their home is protected.
- Major systems: heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, and structural
- Appliances: refrigerator, oven, stove, dishwasher, washer, dryer, and more
Home warranty plans vary in coverage, costs, and provider. Consider factors such as cost, customer service, and network of participating contractors before selecting a plan.
- Prioritize your needs: major systems and appliances that require regular maintenance or replacement
- Research providers: compare prices, coverage, and reputation of different warranty companies
- Consider the fine print: read and understand the terms and conditions of each plan
