Worthless and very poor customer service from that company.What is your experience with home warranties – are they worth it – of did they (sellers) purchase from a bad company?

I suspect on the commerical side you would want one customized by your attorney given the size and scope of the transactions

Anything you do like that will officially require a permit and the building dept will quickly let you know what's allowed. 

Previously had a custom website built but I wasn't a huge fan + Carrot has easy to deal with data.

IN our market here in Portland  deposit is liquidated damages with no further damages  If you check that box.when we build for a pre sale.. if we do any changes or customizing the buyer has to pay us up front for those items and if they dont close they lose what they spent.. market has been such that very few sale fail.. and if we did no customizing we usually give the EM back since we usually sell it again shortly and many times for more money.
