F-U-D happens.

Buying real estate, especially used homes for sale, is a daunting task. Exciting and challenging too. There are dozens of considerations, expectations, concerns and compromises. Every home buyer can fall victim to FUD at some point during the home buying process. Fear - Uncertainty - Doubt. Buying a house & moving, rank in the top ten on the "Life's most stressful moments" list.

You may fall in love with a house for sale but what do you really know about it?
Is it a "good" house? Has it been well looked after? Are there any hidden skeletons (troubles)? Is it just a pretty face ... with a boat load of problems? Unfortunately there are no fortune tellers to predict how your home owning future will go for you.

Buying a house is something like "speed dating".
At a quick glance things look fine, but are they really? Unfortunately when it comes to buying a house the real estate market doesn't often allow for long courtships. In fact in many cases it's only slightly better than an "arranged marriage". You don't really get much of a chance to get to know the place before you are hitched for better or worse. In less time than many people will take to buy a new TV ... a home is bought (statistics tell us that most home buyers will spend less than one hour in a house before they buy it).

The question is; Can you tell from the Realtor's listing info. what you are really getting?
It will tell you how many bedrooms and baths and the amount of space your getting. Where are the closest schools and shops. What the annual tax bill will be. But does it tell you when the furnace may breakdown or when you will have an electrical problem? It's certainly not going to tell you when an appliance is going to throw a wobbly and cost hundreds of dollars to fix. In these areas your certainly on your own. Not that Realtors and Real Estate Agents are trying to hide things, they just don't know ... no one does for sure.

You can (and should) get a Home Inspection.
That is a snap shot of how things are on inspection day. Your inspector can tell you "your furnace works but is older" ... that doesn't mean it won't breakdown the first time you go to use it ... and ... it certainly doesn't mean the inspector has to pay to fix it if it does ... that's not his job. His job was to tell you if it was or wasn't working at the time he looked at it.

Here's the thing ... when it comes to things breaking down ... it's nobody's fault. It's the luck of the draw or more accurately the "BAD LUCK" of the draw.

Lets just accept that things are going to breakdown ... its' inevitable!

So why bother worrying ... get yourself some "Bad Luck" Insurance instead.

A Home Systems Warranty is your Bad Luck Insurance.

You may not even have to pay for the HSWarranty yourself.
Some times the Seller will pay for it (as in the USA) or include it in your Mortgage financing
(at a cost of $2 to $8 per month).

HSWarranty protects you from many unforeseen breakdowns for up to 3 yrs. after you move in.

Let me ask you this ... "Will it make your home buying decision easier ... if you can buy a home ... any home ... without having to worry about breakdowns for 3 Years?"

If your answer is YES ... let me tell you more.
