Justin, we've managed hundreds of rentals over the years and I'm unsure if we've noticed any real difference in the companies. I don't buy the warranties for my rentals. I think the bigger question to research would be if they're prudent to buy in the first place.
If I ever bought a warranty for any of my units, I would only do so for those with old HVAC units. That being said, my best payoff for one of those monsters was for my primary residence I bought back in Y2K (that acronym's bringing back flashbacks...lol). The seller provided one for me and in less than six months after closing my HVAC + gas water heater died. I got some major new equipment for paying 2 tiny service call fees.
