Reasons for a Seller to Place a Warranty

1. Home Warranties offer a cost-effective way to make your home more attractive to buyers.

• Gives your property a competitive advantage over similar homes that don’t have such coverage.
• Helps you obtain the best price and a faster sale by reducing buyer fears.  (Typically 3% closer to asking price and 15% faster.)*  Therefore, the warranty pays for itself with higher offering prices.
• Adds credibility to your property condition statement regarding the condition of your home and minimizes debates over price reduction.  Emphasizes your pride of ownership.

2. Home Warranties help safeguard you against contract entanglements.

• Minimizes the risk of mechanical problems killing a transaction before closing or, worse yet, resulting in a lawsuit after the sale.

3. Home Warranties provide coverage, while your home is on the market, to protect you against sizeable repair bills before you leave.

• You pay nothing for coverage until the home sells, even if you have a claim.
