Exclusive Via Capitale Protection For Buyers For Devices And Systems Within The Building

What does Homebuyer protection consist of?


Homebuyer Protection is available to buyers who have purchased a property through a participating Via Capitale broker. It applies in the event of sudden breakage, breakdown or unexpected default that requires repair:

  • Electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems located inside the main residence, in the heated garage or as part of the heat pump. **


Note: Devices and systems and their equipment must be in good working condition on the date the deed of sale is signed.

Homebuyer Protection covers repair costs up to $1,000 per claim (taxes included) and a maximum of $10,000 per coverage period. A deductible of $100 per claim applies.


Homebuyer Protection takes effect on the day the deed of sale is signed and is available for up to 12 months.


What are the eligibility requirements? *


The building must consist of a maximum of 4 units, used strictly and entirely for residential purposes, inhabitable year-round and subject to a promise to purchase of over $75,000.
