Welcome Lyon Real Estate Clients
Lyon Real Estate and First American want you to know about the valuable home warranty coverage available to you as part of your real estate transaction.
A First American home warranty plan can help protect homebuyers, sellers, and real estate agents from costly breakdowns to covered appliances and home systems before, during, and after the sale of the home.
Homebuyers can now select coverage and order online. Place your order before closing or you can order for up to 60 days after your close.
Buying a Home?
Ask for a First American home warranty to be included at closing, or purchase one after closing.
- As a home buyer, you enjoy special pricing and expanded home warranty coverage from First American. And now you can select your coverage and buy online! Plus, you can order coverage before your closing, or for up to 60 days after close.
- Move in with confidence knowing that your budget and new home are protected against unexpected system and appliance breakdowns.
- When a covered item fails we can save you the expense of repair or replacement, and the hassle and headache of finding a reputable contractor you can trust.
Selling a Home?
Ask your agent about listing coverage available while your home is on the market, and about the benefits of offering a home warranty to the buyer. Having a First American home warranty as a special feature on your home will:
- Give your listing a competitive edge over other homes on the market.
- Protect covered home systems and appliances during the listing period
- Reduce post-sale liability, because if a covered item breaks down the new homeowners can contact First American for assistance.
You can also include a First American home warranty on your next home purchase to protect your budget from costly repairs and replacements on covered items.
