An Old Republic Home Warranty: The Smart Homeowner’s Safety Net

Contractor Fixing Water Heater

A home warranty is a smart financial investment that can save homeowners hundreds—even thousands—of dollars in repair and replacement costs for covered home systems and appliances.

Why is a home warranty worth it?

Investing in a home warranty can help homeowners:

Save money. Recent surveys indicate that most Americans can’t comfortably afford a $5,000 emergency repair cost—some of which may be covered by a home warranty.*

Save time. Old Republic Home Protection (ORHP) has a nationwide network of service technicians who are qualified to diagnose malfunctions in covered systems and appliances and make the necessary repairs or replacements.       

Save sanity. A home warranty can help homeowners avoid stressful—and potentially dangerous—DIY disasters. Plan holders can skip much of the stress that accompanies unexpected home system and appliance breakdowns.

1.5 Billion Reasons to Trust ORHP

ORHP has served over 6 million customers nationwide since 1974 while maintaining an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau for over 25 consecutive years. As a proud part of Old Republic International, Inc.—a Fortune 500 company with a rich 100-year history—ORHP has the financial resources to serve customers and has paid over $1.5 billion on service requests since 2014.*
