Sellers Should Protect Themselves With A Home Warranty

I have been working with a home warrnaty company that provides warranty service to the selller for the time of the listing and then transfers the policy to the new buyer.  This has been a great listing tool.  There is no up front cost to the seller, all fees are paid at closing.  If the house does not sell, the warranty company does not back charge the customer.  It has just recently proven to pay for itself in a huge way when my seller had their furnace go out.  We were able to call the home warranty company and have them send out a service technician to evaluate and eventually replace the unit.  Without this covereage, my seller would have been out of pocket for these repairs.  American Home Shield is the company that I have worked with and they do a great job with their warranty programs.  If you don't offer this as a service on your listing appointments, you are missin gout on a great opportunity to put your services at an advantage over someone elses.
