Home watch is a risk mitigation service. It’s the checking of an unoccupied home while the homeowner is away. If any abnormalities are discovered, the issue is immediately reported to the client (homeowner), and the coordination of licensed professionals is put into action to remedy the situation on the homeowner’s behalf in their absence. Essentially, we become an advocate for our clients in their absence, as a trusted resource. While checking on a client’s home, we conduct a home watch inspection, which is the visual inspection of a home or property looking for obvious issues.
An unoccupied home is a vulnerable home and it’s important to stack the deck in your favor. The more preventative measures taken to prep your home for when you’re away, the less chance there is of something to go wrong. Along with preparation, it’s important to have a game-plan for when you’re away. A crucial part of that game-plan is to have a home watch professional conduct regular visits of your unoccupied or vacant home and provide you with a report of their findings each visit.
Electronic Reports: A detailed Home Watch Inspection Report is completed during each inspection displaying the condition of your property along with the date and time the
inspection was completed.
