What the data says about Select Home Warranty

Select Home Warranty earns a Reliability Score of 57/100 (grade C), built from BBB rating, BBB reviews and Trustpilot. Its B- BBB rating reflects how it handles and resolves complaints, while customers rate it 1.76★ on the BBB and 2.9★ on Trustpilot, the gap between a company's complaint-handling and its everyday customer sentiment is often where the real story is.

Plans run $400-$600 per year, with a $60-$75 service fee per visit. Founded in 2012, and is available in 48 states. As with any home warranty, the contract's exclusions, not its headline price, usually decide whether a claim is paid, so read the sample contract before buying.
