Have A Game-Plan: 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 for 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 homewatch 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 Homewatch Inspection Report is completed during each inspection displaying the condition of your property along with the date and time the inspection was completed. All of our Homewatch Inspection Reports are completed electronically through the QRIDit software system. You no longer need to guess if someone was actually at your home or not…the QRIDit software system we use, uses GPS. So you will know that an inspector was actually at your property. Clients are able to login from our website at anytime (24/7) and view any reports completed at their Florida home.

Pricing: We believe in running our business transparently and provide our starting off rates upfront for a basic homewatch inspection visit (based off frequency and total square footage).  Each property is unique and each client’s specific needs are unique.  Set pricing will be determined once the property is viewed and will be based off client’s specific needs.  Additional services are offered and priced separately. You can view our additional services by clicking on the “Additional Services” tab above.

In addition to our homewatch services, we encourage our clients to consider using a 24/7 home monitoring device that can be controlled remotely. It’s called HouseSetter and it can monitor the temperature, humidity, and power outages in your Florida home while you are away. There are several Wi-Fi monitoring services out there, but I really like using HouseSetter because it doesn’t run off of your Wi-Fi…it has a built in cellular device within it. Which means you don’t have to worry about your Wi-Fi going out and needing your modem to be reset. It’s a nifty device called “Sherlock” that looks like a guard dog and literally all you do is plug “Sherlock” in and he goes right to work for you! With HouseSetter, when the temperature or humidity levels go outside your preset settings or you have a power outage, you are immediately notified via a text message and email alert. Once you are alerted, you can then contact our company (Homewatch Services Etc.) and we can physically visit your property to visually inspect the possible issue on your behalf. So you can react to a small problem before it becomes a big one. HouseSetter’s purchase price is $159 for the “Sherlock” monitoring device and a nominal $5 to $8 per month monitoring fee (depending on the package you purchase). However, our Homewatch Services Etc. clients get special Preferred Partner pricing…all you have to do is ask!
