[37]
control systems help make home home sweet home until one of them gets broken
[42]
and needs to be fixed not having a home warranty service plan when that happens
[47]
can get very expensive very fast calling a repairman to repair a refrigerator
[52]
climate control system and washer or dryer can be a nightmare especially if
[58]
one of those things goes out on a holiday or a weekend repairs get more
[62]
and more expensive as time passes who has hundreds or even thousands of

plan and keep watching to the end of the video and we'll share a home warranty
[90]
service plan secret that could help you avoid making a huge mistake homeowners
[94]
make when choosing a home warranty service plan mistake number one not
[100]
checking home warranty service plan company reviews there are a ton of
[104]
companies out there trying to get your business how will you know which one is
[109]
the right one choosing the right home warranty service plan takes time and
[113]
lots of research online reviews can also be a great place to start you're in luck
[119]
because there are lots of online resources to help review companies
[123]
though online reviews can be great places to start checking out a company I
[128]
would go with an independent review website they don't have a dog in the
[132]
fight so they may be less like to be biased but take everything on
[136]
these websites with a grain of salt you can also ask family and friends about
[141]
their home warranty service plans mistake number two not comparing home
[147]
warranty service plan companies like I said before there's a ton of companies
[151]
out there that want your business some of them look and sound a lot alike kind
[157]
of like the twins you went to high school with they can be hard to tell
[161]
apart unless you get them side by side then you can see some of the differences
[166]
in them no not the twins the home warranty maintenance plans mistake
[173]
number three not checking the Better Business Bureau you want to check as
[178]
many sources as you can before making a decision on a home warranty service plan
[182]
the more research you do on a company the more relevant information you're
[187]
likely to uncover so check with the local Better Business Bureau where the
[191]
home warranty service plan companies are located you might be able to find out if
[196]
they've had compliments or complaints go to the bureau mistake number four buying
[202]
the cheapest option getting a home repair done quickly and without paying a
[207]
fortune as the whole point of a home warranty buying the cheapest option
[211]
might not pay off if the cheapest option doesn't cover the repair you need later
[215]
so way paying now against paying later before you buy a plan you can use the
[221]
side-by-side company comparison data I talked about earlier to help determine
[226]
the best value for you if you have to start with the cheapest option make sure
[230]
you can upgrade later if you need to mistake number five not getting enough
[236]
coverage there's nothing more frustrating than having a plan that
[240]
doesn't cover the item in your home that's broken that's the rock and hard
[243]
place of the plan you can afford versus the plan that covers everything figure
[248]
out what has to be covered by asking yourself what's our must-have day-to-day
[252]
stuff it may be better to start with a plan that covers those necessities until
[257]
you can upgrade your plan but make a plan to upgrade and cover anything else
[262]
that you want to cover as soon as possible
