What about a warranty?

A quality builder will provide a quality warranty. The builder that I use, Oakbrook Homes, uses the best insured warranty available today, which is for 10 full years through Professional Warranty Service Corporation and is transferable which helps improve resale. Other builders may just carry a one year warranty or no warranty at all. The warranty will only be as good as the builder that is backing the warranty. If a builder, such as Oakbrook Homes, has been around for 50 years and has a great reputation then you can be sure that the warranty will have good backing.

Oakbrook Homes10 year warranty covers:
Materials and General workmanship for 1 year.
Major systems, such as: wiring, piping, ductwork and specified structural elements for 2 years.
Years 3-10 the builder warrants the home against covered structural failures. The insurer assumes the builders warranty obligations during this period.
