What is Home Watch?
Our team will regularly perform scheduled and documented visual inspections of your unoccupied or seasonal home, looking for obvious safety or structural issues that, over time, could lead to costly damage to your home.
The reports we generate satisfy most homeowners’ insurance requirements by proving the property is being actively maintained.
Built for Snowbirds and Vacation Homeowners
- Seasonal Preparation: We get your home ready before you arrive and secure it after you leave.
- Long-Term Vacancy Plans: Perfect for 3–9 month absences common with snowbirds.
- Custom Service Packages: Choose the frequency and services that fit your lifestyle and budget.
- Local Knowledge: Our team knows the unique challenges of your area—hurricanes, freezes, heavy rains, or tourist-season security risks.
Why Home Watch Matters?
Leaving a second home vacant for weeks or months at a time comes with risks: break-ins, water leaks, storm damage, pest issues, HVAC failures, and more. Our dedicated home watch professionals regularly visit your property, handle routine care, and respond quickly to any issues—so you don’t have to worry.
