Through the RWC Insurance Advantage (RIA), RWC Members have access to various lines of commercial insurance including General Liability, Workman’s Comp, Builder’s Risk and Contractor’s Equipment. Because the RIA program is offered exclusively to our members, we are able to avoid the high risks associated with other commercial operations. Thus, we keep the cost of claims low and pass the savings on to you.
Key Estates Warranty is also an affiliate of RWC offering an extended warranty on appliances and systems. It is available for new home construction as well as existing homes on the market.
-Resale Homes: Offered exclusively through a network of approved Real Estate Professionals, the Key Estates Warranty program provides extended warranty protection on appliances, systems and even structural components in existing/resale homes.
-New Construction: Key Estates for New Homes allows homebuyers the option of procuring warranty coverage on their new appliances and systems, extending warranty protection beyond the original manufacturer’s standard warranty.
The most popular and unique feature of the Key Estates extended warranty program is that we allow the homeowner to choose their own repair provider should something break down. That’s right. The homeowner is in total control. No need to be assigned a random repairman from a predetermined list. And no crossing fingers and hope that the “repair guy” the other company sends over will be knowledgeable, experienced, or even reliable enough to show up on time as scheduled. This approach allows for greater confidence in who will show up at their door.
