Home Warranties – Do you want to take the stress out of home buying and selling?
Welcome to Heeran’s
Home Team Video blog! We are here
today to keep you informed with tips, education, and information about
pertinent real estate matters. Today we
are going to discuss home warranties.
We are pleased to welcome Brenda Stuart who is a Home Warranty Manager for ServiceOne,
serving the Omaha Metro area and home buyers.
She has been with ServiceOne for over 20 years. Brenda is married and has two daughters, a
son in law, two grandsons and a grandbaby on the way.
Her hobbies include gardening, crafts, cooking once in a
while, spending time with her grandsons at their schools and sporting events.
Brenda first explained
that home warranties are a service agreement to maintain the major appliances
and systems in your home. When there
is a mechanical failure, customers call ServiceOne and they provide the parts
and labor to fix the appliance or possible replacement. A new Omaha Metro homeowner sees real value
in knowing who to call when there is a problem.
Home Warranties can be purchased as part of your home purchase and can
be a negotiated item in the purchase contract.
If you are a Metro
Omaha home seller and offering a warranty, you can use the warranty
yourself if a problem arises. In a lot
of real estate transactions, the buyer will ask the seller to provide a home
warranty, so with this in place, its one time on the checklist which is
finished. A home warranty can provide a
lot of “peace of mind” for seller to
keep their homes in great shape while it is being sold.
Buyers will also have
“peace of mind” knowing who to call and how much it will be to have a
ServiceOne technician provide service.
The trip charge is $75 plus tax.
Also, the possibility of a replacement is an added benefit to the new
homebuyer since they have already invested so much to purchase their home. Some homeowners do not have the time, tools,
or talent to make the fixes and repairs in the homes. A home warranty can take care of their mechanical
failures by providing timely repairs and quality workmanship.
ServiceOne is a
locally owned company in operations since 1989.
The telephone number is
402-339-4357. The technicians are licensed, bonded, and trained. They are uniformed with name badges and arrive in marked vehicles. Also, there is a Solution Center staffed in Omaha, so they understand the Omaha Metro weather and live right here in the community.
