Aligning Incentives: Real HomePoint Stories Part 2
Welcome back to our series where we delve into the true stories of HomePoint members, illustrating how our unique approach to home maintenance is reshaping the industry. In this installment, we uncover another instance where HomePoint’s transparent and member-focused service starkly contrasts with the practices of traditional service companies.
A Troublesome AC Repair
In the heat of summer, a HomePoint member encountered a significant issue — the AC unit in their guest house had ceased to function. Given the urgency of the situation, the member initially reached out to leading HVAC company, as they were the original installers of the unit. The diagnosis was a blown capacitor, a relatively common AC ailment. However, the repair came with an astonishing price tag of $500.
But the story didn’t end there. The HVAC technicians further claimed that the fan motor was broken and out of warranty, proposing an additional $4,500 replacement cost. Faced with these unexpected and exorbitant expenses, the member turned to HomePoint for a second opinion.
The HomePoint Difference
Upon our inspection, the narrative took a turn for the better. Not only did we identify that the AC unit’s capacitor could be repaired for a mere $200, but we also discovered that the fan motor was neither broken nor out of warranty. In fact, the unit was simply turned off. This revelation not only saved the member from an unnecessary expenditure but also highlighted the value of having a trustworthy and diligent partner in home maintenance.
Transparent Pricing and Honest Service
This story exemplifies two of HomePoint’s core principles: transparency and honesty. Unlike service providers who may exploit opportunities for unnecessary upselling, HomePoint’s incentives are directly aligned with our members’ best interests.
