Written by Tim Mcintyre
For most first-time home buyers, along with the joys of owning your own space comes the realities of unexpected costs and potential repairs. That's where a home warranty can come into play.
Designed to protect homeowners against unexpected and costly repairs, a home warranty offers peace of mind by serving as an agreement between you, the homeowner, and a warranty company. By covering unexpected repair costs, a home warranty not only may save you money but also may spare you the time and hassle of searching for a reliable professional.
So, is purchasing a home warranty worth it? Scroll through the photos to learn more about how a warranty works, and explore the pros and cons.
While a home warranty isn't a perfect solution to the hidden costs some homeowners encounter, it can offer peace of mind, particularly if you're a first-time homebuyer!
