Confused about dryer sheets
I've been considering purchasing a home warranty. Would like to hear views on this. Are they worth it? What factors should I consider? Any input appreciated. Thanks.
I have never understood home warranties. How can a company charge $500 to insure all of the things that could go wrong in a home? Even the most minor of repairs could easily exceed $500. It would seem that they would do everything they can to deny coverage given how small of a fee they are collecting relative to the risks they carry. I don’t think a single year has gone by since I’ve been a homeowner where I didn’t have at least $500 in home repairs that needed to be done.
The Internet and YouTube empower the DIY'r.
fixing a leaky toilet is one thing, putting in a new evaporator coil is another

We got a "free" one year home warranty from the real estate agent when we bought this house. The roof started to leak and now I see it only covers appliances.
I'd steer clear of any insurance to protect a loss that you can easily absorb.
