lol that could be true, i have gotten mixed reviews on AHS but i have had a lot of people tell me about them I looked them up on BBB and they have a A+ marking but a lot of complaints...*confused*..thanks for your reply
If you're selling a higher priced home and want to offer a "feel good" extra for a nervous newbie buyer...
then sure, buying a home warranty policy can make sense.
I can't see any practical utility for them in any other circumstance though.
(even for that nervous newbie)

Then you have very limited vision.
I have had an AHS policy on every house I have ever owned. They have saved me tens of thousands of dollars in repairs. The policy is very clear on what is covered and what is not, and I have never had them fail to repair/replace a covered item.
If I had a brand new house and everything in it was still under mfg/builder warranty I might be comfortable not having a policy. As soon as repair costs are going to fall on my bank account I get the coverage.
We have a AHS home warranty and it has already paid for itself. Last year we had to replace part of the A/C Service and without it, it would have cost around $3000. And this year our microwave decided to die so they replaced that as well. There are downsides, like being without A/C for 2 weeks (although AHS offered to pay for a window unit while we waited for the repair and party) but all in all it has been well worth it.
I have on on the house I'm selling so that it can compete with the new ones nearby. Of course the new ones nearby that are listed are actually just a big huge muddy field.
Prudential offers a good one which is AHS. You buy whatever level you want to provide for the buyer.
