So you’re buying your first property. Or maybe your second. Or maybe you’ve even become an old hand at moving, mortgages, and refinancing. Whether you’re a newbie or feel that you’ve been there, done that, you probably reach a stage in your home-buying where you breathe a sigh of relief. You found the house. The other party has accepted your offer. You’ve been preapproved for your mortgage.
Nothing could go wrong… right?
It’s most people’s life experience that if anything can go wrong, at some point, it does. Stuff happens. Mother Nature doesn’t know that you want your house pristine, and she’s erratic when she gets upset: floods, fires, earthquakes, blizzards… in truth, anything can happen.
And it’s not just Mother Nature. Maybe you paid extra for that fantastic exterior lighting that suddenly goes haywire. Or the bugs that appear after the termite inspection’s been done. Or… well, you get the picture. Your dream home has suddenly turned into a massive headache.
Stuff happens, right? And there’s nothing anyone can do. Or… is there?
You might consider protecting your new or about-to-be-new property with a home warranty, which guards against unexpected disasters that occur mid-transaction or immediately after the transaction.
Back in 1971 a company called American Home Shield started the home warranty industry, and but today a number of different companies, groups, and agencies provide home warranties. And your peace of mind might be worth far, far more than they charge!
We’ve seen disasters come and go in Florida, Georgia, and California, and at Avrus Financial and Mortgage, we believe that you deserve some peace of mind. The home warranty is actually very simple: it’s a service contract that covers repair or replacement costs of major systems (like heating and cooling and structural components of the property) along with equipment and appliances (dishwashers, plumbing systems, electrical systems, etc.) that fail. Most home warranties run between $300 and $500, a small price indeed for peace of mind.
At Avrus Financial and Mortgage, we’ve helped sellers and buyers alike buy and sell property without worry by helping you decide what’s best for your specific situation, and we can help you, too.
