Home Watch

Home Watch is defined as a visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues. It’s a single point of contact for everything which means there’s no need to juggle multiple vendors or make long distance trips to oversee a service. By using a professional to manage a home, it also means the homeowner never has to worry whether a vendor is reputable. 

Routine visits to a property can help prevent costly repairs, deter break-ins, and minimize the risk of various damage to the home. Home Watch closely resembles traditional property management but without handling rentals or providing leases. 

Clients enjoy peace of mind as their reporting, communication, are centralized AND they have a go-to for all recommendations related to that home. 

Home Watch visual inspections can be critical to protecting the value of the property and consistency of experience in your home. That’s why Properti clients delegate these details and maximize their time.
