Home Warranty as small repair deterrent?
Having sold our home recently, we are currently renting. The landlord wrote into the lease that we are responsible for the deductible/service fee ($60 per) for calling the home warranty. As a renter, its annoying.
As a perspective future landlord, it makes me wonder. Is this an effective way to cut down on requests for smaller, some might say petty repair requests? I know I am thinking twice before paying $60 for something that isn't much more than an annoyance. Thoughts?
