The Villages structural warranty, at least the one covering our home, uses language that reduces coverage dramatically. It only covers damage “to the extent that your home becomes unsafe, unsanitary, or otherwise unlivable.”

That clause eliminates many things people assume would be covered such as excessive home settling, drywall/stucco cracks, rotten/broken roof joists, etc., etc.
