Buying a house is undoubtedly one of the biggest financial commitments you’ll make in your life, if not the biggest.

So, of course you’ll want to do whatever you can to protect your investment and give yourself peace of mind. That might mean considering a home warranty – a service agreement typically lasting one year that will cover the cost of the repair or replacement of some of your home’s systems and appliances.

However, not all home warranties are created equal, and they don’t always cover everything home buyers think they will.

Read on to learn more about home warranties, how they work, and whether purchasing one is right for you and your family.
