If you are selling your home, a home warranty is a great way to minimize the risk of costs and delays during the listing period, giving your home a competitive advantage. Potential buyers can feel confident that they will have a home warranty company to assist with unexpected repairs after the sale. 

Today more home buyers prefer a home that is covered with a protection plan over a home that is not.

On average, a homeowner will utilize their home protection plan at least two times during their first year of ownership. If you would like more information regarding a home warranty, you can contact the Your Key to Memphis Team at melissa@yourkeytomemphis.com.
