Increase your negotiating power: sell with a home warranty
Even in a buyer's market, there are steps sellers can take to improve the marketability of their home for sale. The obvious tasks include improving curb appeal and staging your home. Another easy thing to do is to sell your home with a home warranty.
Home warranty plans help provide protection against the cost of repairs for broken mechanical systems and appliances. Research shows that eight out of 10 buyers prefer to buy a home protected by a warranty plan. A home warranty is an added incentive that gives you the edge and sets your home apart from the competition.
When you list your home with Edina Realty and commit to purchasing an Edina Realty Home Warranty for the buyer at closing, you can receive free seller coverage for up to 12 months. If your property doesn't sell, you'll owe nothing for the warranty – even if claims were paid.

The Edina Realty Home Warranty is the most comprehensive home warranty plan on the market. Many service contracts offer only to repair failed systems. The Edina Realty Home Warranty plan goes beyond repairs to include replacement coverage as well. Imagine not having to worry about your mechanical systems breaking down while you're in the process of selling your home.
A home warranty plan will also help protect you from post-sale disputes. If an unexpected failure occurs shortly after the home sale has been completed, the buyer will simply call the 1-800 number and report the claim. No one will be asking you to solve the problem.
