This will be my first MFH and I am considering a home warranty.

_______________You bring up a valid point, one that I keep meaning to elaborate on.

What everyone else is saying about it being bought turnkey doesn't matter--it's the same exit strategy as any rental property--but to your point about buying at the price you buy a turnkey for, you have a valid question.

I also espouse the belief that if you move for a valid reason such as real estate, you will not feel that you made the wrong choice.

They are trying to profit from you, so should not be trusted any more than any other seller.1) Qualify the area2) Qualify the company3) Qualify the propertyMake sure you independently validate any information they provide or that is important to your success.

I’m sure you have done your due diligence on the existing tenant but I would validate current status of rent payments (you want to know if tenant impacted by COVID 19)  Otherwise, I think the comments made earlier are spot on . 

All of this however, should be taken with a grain of salt and as you've mentioned, a proper analysis would involve itemizing all expenses and calculating / validating all the numbers of a deal. 

One, you're insulting me on a personal level in an attempt to validate your point.

If they are trying to leave, you will have to take them to court for the rent due and the judge will have to rule on the clauses validity.

I saw the homes it was a great look they did those super cheap repairs that last enough for the 6 month warranty to expire.
