Why do I need a home warranty in Omaha?
When an out-of-warranty appliance such as a refrigerator or washing machine stops working, or an air conditioning component fails, repairs can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars — except if you have a home warranty.
Many homeowners benefit from purchasing a home warranty in Omaha:
- Sellers include one as an incentive, often increasing the sales price and lowering a home’s time on the market.
- New buyers purchase a home warranty for peace of mind and financial security.
- Owners of older homes in neighborhoods like Dundee or Field Club buy a home warranty to cover older household items.
- Rental property owners get one to protect an investment.
Home warranty coverage in Omaha
A standard home warranty in Omaha typically excludes secondary appliances, pools and spas and well and septic pumps, but providers will cover these at an additional cost.
A home warranty is not the same as homeowners insurance. Homeowners insurance protects the structure of your home and personal property from fire, flooding, storms and other perils. A home warranty pays for repairs and replacements of large appliances and major home systems that stop working after wear and tear.
Home warranties can be purchased at any time but may take up to 30 days to go into effect. Items typically covered by a home warranty include:
- Kitchen appliances
- Washers and dryers
- Heating and cooling systems
- Electrical and plumbing systems
- Central vacuum
How much does a home warranty cost in Omaha?
A standard home warranty runs between $300 and $700 a year. The price you pay depends on your choice of coverage. Most companies have plans covering appliances or systems or both. Often, it’s possible to build your own coverage plan.
Keep in mind that with each claim you make, you will owe a small deductible, called a trade service call fee. The amount is usually between $50 and $100. The home warranty company will charge the fee when sending out a technician. If the technician determines a repair or replacement is necessary and covered, the company will pay the balance.
As with any warranty, there are exclusions and limitations. It is important to read the contract carefully so you know what is covered. Ask specifically if there is any restriction on the number of claims you can make or the amount the home warranty company will pay out.
Also, read customer reviews to get an idea of how the company interacts with customers during the claims process. The Federal Trade Commission has more tips to consider as you shop for a home warranty in Omaha.
