Many benefits come with buying a home warranty when selling your home, but there are drawbacks to consider, too. 

Pros

  • Incentive for buyers

  • Transferability to new owners

  • Prevent post-sale issues

Cons

  • Expensive cost

  • Exclusions of certain features or appliances

  • Coverage limits

  • Often difficult to understand

  • Potential wait for claim service 

You may be able to negotiate an as-is purchase, but many sellers who list their homes as-is aren’t willing to lower their asking price since they’ve already accounted for the price of repairs. Homes are often listed as-is for a quick sale, so there’s a chance a seller may negotiate in order to make the sale—it never hurts to ask.

Home warranties can protect the buyer, the seller, or both, depending on when the coverage begins. Sellers who buy home warranties while their homes are on the market protect themselves from out-of-pocket costs leading up to closing and to their buyers after closing. Buyers who purchase coverage that kicks in after closing will only be protecting themselves.

The average cost of routine home maintenance is about 1% to 4% of your home’s total value every year. Larger projects like replacing a roof or repairing a foundation may end up costing you more, but it’s a good idea to set aside money for maintenance costs every year so you can keep your home in good shape.

A seller’s home warranty normally excludes intentional damage, issues that arise due to a lack of maintenance, and cosmetic repairs. Each warranty can also have specific exclusions, like certain types of heating or cooling systems and certain components within your appliances and home systems. Most home warranties will also have coverage caps, and once you reach payouts that match the caps, all repairs will be excluded.
