With today’s ever-changing, fast-paced way-of-life we all seem to lead, we sometimes find ourselves needed in more than one place at once…a feat that is nearly impossible to accomplish. That’s where we can help YOU! I am sure you know the importance in today’s world of having someone responsible to watch over your investment property or unoccupied home at times when you cannot. We manage and perform home watch inspections, provide concierge services, and coordinate maintenance and service of residential properties. So, if you are an absentee owner and have a vacation home, residential home, or an investment property…then you need US!

​

Having a neighbor stop in periodically as a favor to check your home may initially seem like a good idea. However, when a serious issue arises or you need someone to take swift action on your behalf, your property can quickly become an imposition to your neighbor. That is why it is important to have a trained professional methodically inspect your home, complete a detailed inspection report per visit, and have the ability to swiftly coordinate licensed professionals to assist in the repair and maintenance of your home when something goes awry.

​

I make it clear to our clients that we are not home inspectors or mold inspectors. That line of work carries a much different degree of training and state certification. We are “homewatch (home watch)” inspectors. The definition of Home Watch is the visual inspection of a home or property looking for obvious issues. If we notice any abnormalities, we immediately report it to you, and assist in coordinating licensed professionals to remedy the situation on your behalf in your absence. Essentially, we become an advocate for you in your absence, as a trusted resource.

​

Unforeseen damage can happen at any time…especially in an unoccupied or vacant home. Your A/C compressor may go out, leaving your home victim to humid and stagnant air, causing the potential growth and spread of mold spores. A ceiling leak from a second floor condo may cause costly water damage to your property as well. Many things can go wrong in 30 days in an unoccupied property. That is why we strongly recommend 2-4 homewatch inspection visits per month.

​
