5.Should I get a home warranty, and what would it cover


A home warranty can be a good investment if you want added financial protection against unexpected repair costs for major home systems and appliances. Unlike homeowner's insurance, which covers damage from events like fire, theft, or natural disasters, a home warranty specifically covers repairs and replacements for home systems and appliances that fail from normal wear and tear.

Here’s what a home warranty typically covers:

1. Major Home Systems:

HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning)

Electrical systems

Plumbing (including water heaters)

Ductwork



2. Appliances:

Kitchen appliances like the oven, range, dishwasher, and refrigerator

Washer and dryer

Water softeners and other smaller appliances, depending on the warranty plan




Pros and Cons of a Home Warranty:

Pros:

Can save money on costly repairs or replacements.

Simplifies finding a repair technician (the warranty company typically arranges this).

Offers peace of mind, especially for older homes where appliances and systems may be nearing the end of their life cycle.


Cons:

There’s often an annual fee plus a service fee each time you use it.

Limited coverage on pre-existing issues, lack of maintenance, or certain types of damage.

Some providers may limit repair choices or deny coverage based on fine-print conditions.



If you own an older home or anticipate needing significant repairs soon, a home warranty might be beneficial. For a newer home, or if you already have substantial savings set aside for repairs, it might not be as necessary.
