Occasionally, homeowners hoping to close a deal agree to purchase home warranties to give the home buyer peace of mind. However, prospective homeowners should do their homework to make sure the policies will actually help.
Typical home warranties cover the major mechanicals and appliances in a home for one year after the sale. Warranties range in price from $350 to $800. If purchased from reputable companies, home warranties can help homeowners deal with broken appliances, malfunctioning air conditioning, and other problems.
The policies usually require homeowners to contact the service company when something breaks. The company then sends out a repair person who provides an evaluation for a set fee, usually about $65. Once a professional has determined what the problem is, the warranty company pays for the broken items to be repaired or replaced.
