30 DAYS OF PROTECTION
Advantage Inspection includes complimentary early-ownership
protection for your new home through our partnerships
with Guard Warranty or Summit Home Warranty.
Buying a home is stressful enough. That’s why every Advantage Inspection client gets built-in protection for the first 30 days after closing.
You have a straightforward choice:
-
Opt in to a free 30-day home warranty from Guard Home Warranty, or
-
Skip Guard and be automatically covered by Summit’s 30-day limited Inspection Warranty.
Either way, you’re not walking into your new home unprotected.
How It Works (In Under a Minute)
You schedule your home inspection with Advantage. After the inspection, you’ll receive an invitation to activate your free 30-day Guard Warranty.
You choose:
YES – Activate Guard ➝ You get Guard’s full 30-day home warranty. You can cancel online anytime. After 30 days, there is a monthly fee to continue coverage.
NO – Don’t activate Guard ➝ You are automatically covered by Summit Home Protection for 30 days after closing, up to $250, with no deductible.
Simple, equal, and predictable.
Option 1: Guard 30-Day Home Warranty (You Opt In)
Guard is a full home warranty, not just a small add-on.
-
Cost for the first 30 days: $0
-
Coverage: Major systems and appliances, per Guard’s warranty terms
-
Start date: Day of your closing.
-
At day 30:

Option 2: Summit’s Protection 30-Day Limited Coverage
(Automatic if you don’t opt in to Guard)
If you decide not to activate the Guard warranty, you’re still protected.
You’re automatically enrolled in Summit’s 30-day limited warranty, which is coverage managed by ICC.

Summit Home Protection is designed as a safety net for small surprises that pop up just after you move in—not a full replacement for a long-term home warranty.
Which Option Should You Choose?
Here’s the short version:
-
Want broader protection on systems & appliances?
Activate the free 30-day Guard Warranty and decide later whether to keep it. -
Prefer to keep it simple and light?
Skip Guard and rely on the automatic 30-day limited Summit coverage (up to $250, no deductible).
Either way, you’ve got someone in your corner during those first few weeks with the house.

Guard Home Warranty!
- How Does a Home Warranty Benefit Me
- Does A Home Warranty Help Me Stay On Budget?
- How Do I Pay for Guard's Home Warranty
A home warranty protects you from expensive, unexpected repair bills, providing peace of mind by ensuring that repairing or replacing covered appliances and home systems won’t break the bank.
For those on a fixed income, a home warranty plan is a valuable tool, especially for homeowners without an emergency fund or those who want to protect their savings. A home warranty is also perfect for individuals who aren’t handy, lack the expertise, or don’t have the time to repair a home system or appliance when it breaks down.
With Guard Home Warranty, you won’t have to pay the full retail cost to repair or replace a covered item. Instead, our warranty plan helps you manage the costs of unforeseen breakdowns and malfunctions, keeping your finances safe.
A home warranty helps protect your budget when a covered item breaks down. With a home warranty plan from us, you pay for your plan and a fixed $95 Trade Service Call Fee for approved claims, rather than covering the full cost of repairs or replacements out of pocket.
For those on a fixed income, our home warranty plan serves as a vital budgeting tool. It’s also an excellent safeguard for homeowners without an emergency fund or those looking to protect their savings.
Without a home warranty plan, you would be responsible for the full cost of repairing or replacing a system or appliance when it breaks down.
When you purchase a home warranty from us, you can choose from flexible payment plans including monthly, quarterly (every three months), or annual options. Choosing our annual plan offers even more savings, equivalent to receiving one month free compared to the monthly rate.
To simplify your experience, we automatically charge the card on file for future payments, ensuring your coverage is continuous and hassle-free.
