You may be asking yourself, why choose an accredited home watch service.  What is a home watch service and what will they provide for me? Home watch is a service that performs visual inspections of a home or property, looking for obvious issues. Becoming an accredited Home Watch Service is not an easy process.  All accredited members of the National Home Watch Association (NHWA) must pass background checks, must be licensed, insured, and bonded. To become a certified home watch professional, you must also pass a comprehensive program and examination centered around NHWA’s standards of Best Practice and continuing education yearly.

In this fast-paced world today, more and more homeowners are away from their home due to business commitments, holidays, or other personal affairs. When away, homeowners are not easily accessible to handle emergencies, attend to the managing of repairs, or perform essential errands. That said, caring for a home can be a challenge. Many things can happen during hot and humid temperatures, especially during the summer months in Southwest Florida.

It is not just the unpredictable weather that can create mayhem on your home while you are away for a short or extended period. Heat causes mold and mildew, insect and rodent infestations, flooding, vandalism and even break ins.

All these things left unattended can create damaging and expensive issues down the road.

Also, most insurance companies will charge a higher rate for unoccupied homes not being maintained by a qualified home watch service. This will add to the burden of owning an unoccupied home.
