Warranty Sale

By Alison Rice. Brera Capital Partners, a New York private equity firm, has purchased 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, a nationwide company that provides warranties to 15,000 builders and 1.26 million new and existing homes. Terms of the November deal were not disclosed, but both companies see opportunity in the market: Only 5 percent of U.S. homes are covered by warranties or service contracts, says Brera.
