Affordable coverage that could save you thousands of dollars.
Your home is probably your most valuable asset. That’s why you protect it with
homeowner’s insurance.
|
But what about the items not covered by insurance: a water heater failure… |
a dishwasher breakdown…an electrical problem? |
|
|
Sensible protection against unexpected repair costs. |
Your home systems and appliances won’t last forever. In fact, the average life
expectancy of nine critical home systems and appliances is 13 years, and the likelihood
of failure in a given year is 68%.1
You can protect yourself against many of these financial risks with a Coldwell
Banker® Home Protection Plan, administered by American Home Shield (AHS). |
· Homeowners spend an average of $900 each year to repair home systems and
appliances. The cost for just one appliance or systems repair can range from
$65 to $2,000, and replacement costs average $1,319.1 But, with a Coldwell Banker®
Home Protection Plan, you reduce the risk of these high costs.
· Covers most home systems and appliances.
· Pays for repair or replacement of any covered item that breaks down due
