Home Warranty Benefits
-
The warranty
covers YOU, The Seller, during the listing period. Then transfers to the Buyer for 1 full year upon closing.
-
There is no
payment due now. Payment is due only at closing. If your property does not close and the warranty was not used, no payment will be due.
-
At closing the warranty will convert to the buyer and covers them for 1 full year from the date of closing. The plan is
then renewable by the buyer for subsequent years.
-
On average, homes with a home warranty increase
sales prices by up to 3% by making them safer investments for
buyers. (Source: Business Week)
-
Minimize the chance that a system, component or
appliance failure could delay closing.
-
Covered repairs are guaranteed for 180 days (6
months) by Cinch.
-
Buyers may ask
you for this warranty as part of contract negotiations (most buyers
agents will advise them to do so) By choosing the warranty
now you will also benefit because you are covered during the
listing period!
