Tiffany McDugle, HOME WARRANTY OF AMERICA A One-Stop Shop for Reliable Coverage By Lindsey Wells Photos by Gabrielle Fenske with Forever Joy Photography
Bringing peace of mind to sellers, buyers and real estate agents is the mission of Home Warranty of America (HWA). As a one-stop shop for home warranty products, HWA is built on helping homeowners protect their homes and budgets with simple, reliable solutions 365 days a year. For most of us, our home is the biggest thing we’ll ever buy. And for most of us, the cost to unexpectedly repair a major appliance or system isn’t exactly an occurrence we welcome with open arms. Tiffany McDugle, an account executive for HWA, finds fulfillment in getting the word out about the importance of home warranties. “It’s guaranteed that within the first 60 to 90 days of having a home warranty, a client will file at least one claim, and they will save money while filing that claim,”

she said. Unexpected breakdowns on appliances and mechanical systems can only be covered by a home warranty, not a homeowner’s insurance policy, which is only suitable for covering the loss from incidents like fire, storms or vandalism. Something that sets this company apart from similar companies is that HWA is the original 13-month home warranty company. They also offer multiyear plans. Perhaps the most important thing, however, is the level
of customer service that HWA is known for. “We offer the 13 months of coverage and the multiyear plans, and those are great, but when a client chooses to purchase their home warranty from HWA, they are also getting me,” Tiffany said. “I’m always available via phone, text and email. I want you to know that I’m not just trying to sell you something, and then after the sale, I disappear, and you have no point of contact. I’m always here, not only for you as a real estate agent to assist with your home warranty
