Home Warranties - What Are the Options?

By Allen Whinters


So many people these days are purchasing appliance repair insurance so they don't have to shell out several thousand dollars to repair a broken system or appliance. The problem with most people is the fact that they just don't understand how the different systems in the home are covered. So what type of coverage do you need? There are different options that meet just about anybody's budget so you just can't go wrong.

Are there many plans that will meet your needs?

For most people, the first plan that they purchase will be a plan that covers most of the appliances and systems in their home. But remember, these programs will usually not cover a blender that goes bad, but they cover things like dishwashers.

The other options are basically just specific to your needs. You can choose a smaller plan to only cover your appliances or just your major systems like the plumbing or electrical systems. Some of the companies will even let you pick and choose the options that suite you best.

What all is covered by home warranty protection plans?

Where any of your appliances or systems broken or where they in disrepair when you purchased the warranty? This would be the biggest reason for something not being covered. For example, if the oven did not work when you bought the house, then you are just out of luck. It's as simple as that. So don't go crying to the company when you need to make a claim.

What is the problem with being over insured?

This happens to many first time home buyers. Basically they have overlapping policies that cover the same appliances or systems. This is a waste of money and most people have not idea that it is happening. If you have just purchased a new washer and dryer, there is no need to have them covered on a home warranty because they are covered by the manufacturer for a least a year.
