Home Warranties for Realtors: Why Partner with a Home Warranty? Cost, Commission & More

Realtors have a tough job. Pairing home sellers with home buyers requires serious work.

Home Warranties & Realtors

Home warranties cover replacement and repair on warrantied areas of the home due to mechanical issues, such as age or wear and tear.

Experienced realtors know that when browsing around a home with a potential buyer a lot can stand out. There might be an old refrigerator that sweats, a worn down HVAC system that makes one side of the house warmer than the other, or a clothes dryer that isn’t as efficient as it used to be.

Luckily, these problems don’t have to stall the sale of the home, and all parties stand to benefit from a home warranty.

• The home seller can tempt the close of the sale with this additional benefit while preventing contact in the future about broken appliances or systems.
• The home buyer can have peace of mind that their appliances and systems are covered while budgeting for those costs rather than paying a surprise expense down the line.
• The realtor enables the sale of the home and receives benefits such as a commission or special discounts from Select Home Warranty.
