Benefits of a Mobile Home Warranty

Having a mobile home warranty offers more than just a discounted service, repair, replacement when an important home item or system fails. The home warranty for mobile homes also provides the following benefits:

Security

Not only is it inconvenient when a major system or appliance breaks, it can also increase the stress of vulnerable circumstances (such as your AC unit breaking down in the summer, or your anytime). With a warranty, you will feel safer and more secure knowing your appliance or system will be taken care of ASAP.

Access To Local Experts

The best mobile home warranty will have its own network of technicians and contractors to take care of whatever problem you’re facing. Think of all the time you’ll save not having to call around and find a trusted company yourself! Let your warranty work for you.

Mobile Home's Resale Value Will Be High 

The inclusion of a warranty with a mobile house is incredibly enticing for potential buyers (if you ever decide to sell). You’ll pass the peace of mind on to the new owners while reaping the benefits for your family, too – a win-win.

What’s Not Covered in a Mobile Home Warranty?

Remember that a home warranty for your mobile house is not the same as homeowners insurance. Whereas homeowners insurance covers property damage due to natural disasters (tornadoes, wildfires, hurricanes), your mobile home warranty does not.
