If there's one thing I've learned since becoming a homeowner a little over 5 years ago, it's that any thing that can go wrong usually does go wrong. Owning a home can be quite expensive, for unlike an apartment, you are responsible for any and all upkeep and repairs that occur.
I had no idea what a home protection plan was when we bought our home, but thankfully, our realtor strongly recommended we purchase one for our home and we did. A home insurance policy covers the structure of the home itself, while a home protection plan covers the CONTENTS of your home, such as water heaters and major appliances, when they need repair or replacement.
American Home Shield invented the concept of home protection plans a little more than 39 years ago and have since become the leading home protection plan company. American Home Shield provides homeowners warranty plans which provide peace of mind for any homeowner 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
They are also part of the ServiceMaster family, which includes such home service companies as ServiceMaster Clean, TruGreen, Terminix and Merry Maids, so you can rest assured that any service request you require will be handled by only the best and most reputable companies.
