2-10 Home Buyers Warranty

Buying a new home is one of the largest investments you will ever make, which is why it’s important to ensure your home comes with protection. As a Texas home builder, we offer a warranty to guarantee the quality of our craftsmanship and the appliances selected for your new home.  What does being a 2-10 HBW member mean for your home? 2-10 HBW only accepts the best builders into their program. To become a member, Scott Ellis Homes went through an extensive screening process that measures our building practices against strict underwriting guidelines to ensure we maintain a high quality product in addition to a careful inspection of our workmanship.  With the purchase of your new home, you’ll receive a copy of the structural home warranty contract that explains what is covered as well as a maintenance booklet to give you tips on how to care for your home. In addition, the warranty is fully-transferable, which increases the resale value of your home.
