What is a New Home Warranty? How Long Does a Home Builder Have to Warranty a House?
[Auto-Transcribed]
Today, we're going to talk about what do you need to get from a builder when purchasing a modern home. Before you buy a modern home, you need to request from the builder a structural warranty. Why I'm saying this, the structurally warranty is something that it will stay with your home for at least 10 years. For example, number one reason the first year of everything that goes perhaps wrong on the house is on the builder. By law, the builder will fix all the issues in the house because it's mandatory. Number two, after the second year, your plumbing your mechanical, your AC, and your electric also is being covered by this structural warranty. Number three, after the second year, and up to the 10th year everything that goes wrong with sediments, cracks in the outside of the house is being covered by the structural warranty. This is a process, very simple for the homeowners. You need to just submit a claim to the insurance company. The insurance company will contact the builder who builds your home and that builder will fix your problem. It creates a sense of interfacing with three actors only and it will eliminate all the costs associated with fixing the house. You will not spend money fixing something, the builder and the insurance company would take care of that problem. Now, not every builder is qualified to carry that structural warranty. Only qualified builders by the insurance company will do carry. What makes a builder qualified? The performance, the quality of construction, the craftsmanship. So not only are you going to request the structural warranty on your home. You're going to determine that if the builder carries the structural warranties because the builder is qualified, and has good quality construction done on your new home. Do you like this video?
