Thank you Jessica (realtor) for getting us the home warranty.
With the cold snap over the weekend, we tried to fire up the heater.
Heater tech came out today from the warranty company and informed us that the heat exchanger is gone and we need to replace our heater.
$7500 that we won’t have to pay and the warranty company is looking at our inspection report.
The thot plickens.
And it's been denied.
"Pre-existing condition"
Now to find a furnace before snowfall. 😡
I'm so sorry. I would def check if your realtor received any kickbacks from the home warranty company when you signed up (it's a very common occurrence). It's highly illegal and, while it doesn't help now, you can likely get out of the contract.
How did they figure it was a pre-existing condition? Can you fight this?
@ExecutiveFunction404 @MrsBentoBako
Isn't that the whole point of home warranties? To protect you from things that were already a problem but you weren't informed?
@AlphaCentauri @ExecutiveFunction404
One would think. But like any after market warranty they have sooooooo many loopholes.
@AlphaCentauri @MrsBentoBako
They're usually to replace a broken appliance/hvac. Some may have stipulations in the fine print that say the item must have been purchased by the current owner, but that would make it even more unbelievable & sketchy that the realtor sold it (or suggested it).
