Protection for buyers & sellers

Protections in 12 defined risk areas
before, during, and after closing

When you work with a Guardian Agent, you receive up to $11,150 in transaction protection
at no additional cost to you. No add-ons. No hidden fees. No increase to your closing costs.

When You’re Buying
  • Inspections or repairs derail the deal
  • Appraisal or financing delays create added expense
  • Wire fraud attempts during funds transfer
Why it matters: Buyers face real financial exposure long before closing day.
When You’re Selling
  • Buyer delays stall timelines
  • Carrying costs continue while deals shift
  • Post-closing disputes or fraud still arise
Why it matters: Risk doesn’t stop once the contract is signed.
The Missing Safety Net
  • Great agents guide — but risk still exists
  • Contracts don’t cover unexpected out-of-pocket losses
  • Safeguard Plans address 12 defined risk areas
Why it matters: Protection fills the gap where transactions fail people most.
Important: Safeguard Plans are provided by Guardian Agents as part of their service. Real estate transactions don’t just face risk at closing — challenges can arise before, during, and even after negotiations. Realty Guardian helps protect buyers and sellers across the entire transaction lifecycle, and months after.
About Realty Guardian

We’re Redesigning Real Estate Protection

Realty Guardian® was created by real estate professionals who’ve seen what happens when a deal falls apart — and how expensive “surprises” can get. Guardian Agents add practical safeguards that help buyers and sellers stay protected when plans change.

  • Built for real-life problems — delays, disputes, failed inspections, unexpected costs, and more.
  • Protection that follows the transaction — safeguards vary by role (buyer/seller) and price range.
  • A better experience — less stress, more clarity, and stronger accountability from start to finish.

12 Defined Protection Areas

Protection before, during, and after your real estate move.

Realty Guardian helps buyers and sellers reduce financial shock, protect against wire fraud, and access defined post-closing legal consultation protections — delivered through Guardian Agents and price-based Safeguard Plans (terms and limits apply).

Inspection & appraisal friction Timeline delays & disruption costs Transaction failure shock reduction Wire fraud exposure Post-closing legal consultation
Before & During

Preparedness + safeguards

Better planning, clearer expectations, and proactive guidance—so you make smarter decisions under pressure and avoid preventable surprises.

If It Fails

Reduce the financial shock

If a transaction fails to close, a Safeguard Plan may help reimburse certain eligible, documented out-of-pocket expenses, subject to plan terms and limits.

After Closing

Fraud + legal consultation support

Defined protections for wire fraud and post-closing legal consultation may apply under plan terms, limits, and documentation requirements.

Plain English:

Great agents negotiate. Guardian Agents also help you prepare for the risks people don’t see coming—so one surprise doesn’t derail your move.

Price-based plans:

Plan tiers are determined by the transaction price range (listing or purchase price)—not “picked” by the client. Benefits (if offered) follow the plan’s definitions, limits, and eligibility rules.

Realty Guardian is the innovator of buyer and seller safeguard plans.
Protection before • during • after

Protection Built for the Real World

Buying or selling isn’t risky because people are careless—it’s risky because timelines shift, details get missed, fraud attempts happen, and post-closing questions can still require legal guidance. Guardian Agents deliver price-based Safeguard Plans designed to reduce financial shock and provide defined protections (terms and limits apply).

Seller Protection Safeguards

Protect listing momentum and reduce avoidable surprises—inspection and repair pressure, appraisal issues, timeline delays, fraud exposure around proceeds, and defined post-closing support for legal consultation needs (terms apply).

Buyer Protection Safeguards

Make smart decisions under pressure—inspection and appraisal friction, financing and timeline disruptions, wire fraud exposure during funds transfer, and defined post-closing legal consultation protections when questions arise (terms apply).

Why Protection Matters in Real Estate

We’re not just adding safeguards — we’re restoring confidence to real estate transactions.

Buying or selling a home is personal. When something goes wrong, the cost isn’t just financial — it’s emotional. Guardian Agents exist to protect clients from those moments and guide them with care, clarity, and accountability. This isn’t about fear. It’s about being prepared — and feeling supported every step of the way.

“Real estate is personal. When we protect the deal, we protect people — and that’s what truly matters.”

— Kevin Swift

Real Proof When Things Go Sideways

These are real situations buyers and sellers face. Guardian Agents help reduce the financial sting when plans change.

Seller $1,050 holding-cost support
“Our sale collapsed, and we were stuck with two mortgages. The holding-cost support gave us breathing room to find a new buyer.” That support changed the entire outcome for us — we stayed afloat and kept moving forward.
Andrew Matthews Seller
Buyers $500–$1,000+ cost relief
“We paid for appraisal and inspection, then repairs came in way over budget. Realty Guardian helped reimburse part of our costs and took the sting out.” That support helped us walk away and find a better house without feeling like we lost everything.
Nathan & Lea Goodyear Buyers
Buyer $1,000–$2,500+ gap support
“We had major issues and a low appraisal. The protections helped close most of the gap and covered temporary housing during repairs.” It felt like someone actually had our back when the deal got complicated.
