The company does business in all but five states across the U.S. and has received very favorable reviews, along with an A rating from the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

Elite Home Warranty’s main selling point is its 60-day cancellation clause in its contract, compared to the industry standard of 30 days. Elite also offers a single point of contact during the claims process.
