protections provided by one party to another. In real estate contracts, there are usually
warranties regarding the condition of the appliances and certain fixtures. New homes often
have extensive warranties covering not only fixtures and appliances, but the overall
structure of the house as well. There can be express (written)
warranties,implied warranties (guarantees that the parties intended even
though they may have stated them specifically in the contracts), and
imposedwarranties (guarantees created, for example, by state law). This Homebuyers Tip was excerpted from:
