2 . Home Warranty Overview

If you have ever bought a new home in Michigan, you are probably aware of how important it is to be sure you have a warranty to go along with it. Whether you are a home buyer or seller in Michigan, you will want to include this in the sales contract, because it protects both the buyer and seller.

A home warranty is used to protect you against problems that may occur after the close of the sale. Most home warranties include: problems that can occur with the duct work, heating and air conditioning issues, and the replacement and repair of other appliances. It can greatly benefit both home buyers and sellers, and it is strongly recommended that you do not buy a home without one.

Home warranties are often paid for at closing, and are often very specific in nature. If you are having a new home built, it is very likely that your builder is required to provide a home warranty that will last for one year or more. This is to protect you for that amount of time from problems you might encounter after closing on your new investment.

3 . Understanding What Your Home Warranty Covers

While most home warranties cover the basic appliances found in the home, there are certain stipulations that may be set by different companies in Michigan. This is why it is a good idea to carefully read through the stipulations of your home warranty and be sure you completely understand what is and what isn’t covered. If you are unsure, ask questions. Also be sure to shop around for a provider that offers what you want, so you will be able to get the most out of your warranty for your money.

Many standard home warranties include repair or replacement costs on plumbing systems, heating and air conditioning, ovens, and sometimes refrigerators and other home appliances such as washers and dryers. Some home warranties even cover the roof, although it is important to keep in mind that this isn’t always the case.

Warranty coverage for other items such as a private well or septic system can often be purchased for an additional fee. Again, your warranty provider can inform you about what your coverage includes, and of any additional fees for extra appliances and systems.

When you purchase your policy, you will be asked several questions concerning the coverage you desire, and then given a quote on the cost. It is often a good idea to shop around for the best quotes and coverage, as some companies in Michigan may include items that others charge an additional fee for handling. Also, warranty coverage is sometimes different for buyers and sellers in Michigan. For example, a standard policy might not pay a seller’s repair bill if the heating system fails before closing, but will cover the buyer if the problem occurs after the sale. This is why you should read the fine print before any sale is made to be sure you understand your coverage.

4 . Home Warranty Costs in Michigan

While the cost of a standard home warranty in Michigan will vary from one provider to another, there is a price range that many home warranties fall into, so again, shop around for the best price. When comparing home warranties and their associated costs, it is a good idea to write down all the things you wish to have covered in the warranty. Write down each policy provider you think you might consider, and then check off the items each one covers.

There are several questions you should ask the providers before comparing coverage. One of these is which items are included in the standard coverage? This is important, as it can vary from one provider to another. Another consideration is how many items will need to be added on a separate policy, and the cost of adding these items. Again, this will vary from one provider to another, and should be a main factor when making your comparison.

Another important question to ask is what is the cost of the co-payment. This is the amount you will actually pay when a repair person comes out to fix a system or appliance that has failed, and works very much like an insurance co-payment. Generally, the co-payment along with your warranty will cover the entire cost of the repair.

Another important question to ask providers is how long they have been in business. You will likely want a company with a good track record, and one that is newly established might not be able to show such a record of good customer service and reliability. You are making a big investment, so you want to be sure you won’t have to spend any more than you have to, and that the company will live up to your expectations should a problem occur.
