We decided that we wanted to get a home warranty whenever we bought our house.
We were really concerned that something might come up later on once we got moved into the house and so we wanted to be prepared.
My husband and I are both pretty anxious about stuff like that and so we definitely wanted to take advantage of the home warranty that they offered us when we were closing on our home loan. I knew that it would be a good decision for us, just in case something went wrong with one of the main things at the new house. The home warranty would cover things like the roof, the windows, and the heating and cooling system just in case something went wrong in the years after the factory warranties ran out. I guess you could say that we are both pessimists because we were worried that something like that would happen. We closed on the House that got moved in and everything was found for the first year or so. Then and the summer or the second year when the weather started heating up outside, that’s when our central air conditioning system started to go on the blink. Unfortunately for us, the warranty for the A/C unit had already run out and so we couldn’t get it fixed. That’s when I remembered that the HVAC unit was covered under our optional home warranty! I’m so glad that we purchased that home warranty because otherwise, our A/C repair bills would have cost us a fortune!
