Does Home Warranty Transfer to New Owner?

Home warranty transferability depends on specific policy terms and timing.Most warranties allow transfer to new owners during real estate transactions if properly documented. Some companies require transfer notification and may charge processing fees. Coverage terms typically remain unchanged through transfer, maintaining original expiration dates and conditions. New owners should receive all warranty documentation and contact information during closing. Some policies automatically terminate upon property sale unless specifically transferred. 

Understanding transfer procedures, notification requirements, and documentation needs helps ensure continuous coverage through ownership changes. New owners should verify coverage status and understand claim procedures after transfer. Some companies offer special renewal terms for transferred warranties at expiration.
