The Power of Home Warranties Protecting Buyers, Sellers, & Brokers- 2 CEs
About this Event
Join Karen Hyman from Fidelity National Home Warranty for a practical and informative session on the value of home warranties in today’s real estate transactions. This course will explore what home warranties cover—major systems and appliances located within the main foundation of the home and attached garage—as well as what types of failures are included (normal wear and tear).
You’ll learn how home warranties offer budget protection and peace of mind for buyers and sellers alike. With a 68% chance that a system or appliance will fail in any given year* and the average lifespan of these items being just 13 years*, having a home warranty in place can make a big difference. On average, a home warranty is used more than twice a year*, and most companies offer a seller’s warranty during the listing period—some of which may cover inspection-related issues.
We’ll also discuss how a home warranty can reduce liability after closing, ease buyer concerns about aging systems, and be used as a strategic negotiating tool—whether requesting the seller to pay for it, offering it as a gift to the buyer, or using it to help get an offer accepted.
This class is ideal for agents looking to better understand the benefits, terms (typically 12–24 months), and real-life uses of home warranties to better serve and protect their clients.
