Why do I need Home Watch?
Home Watch offers multiple benefits for homeowners.
Meeting Home Insurance Requirements: Home insurance policies usually have a requirement that someone check on your home while you are away. These requirements can be quite specific and include everything from daily to weekly inspections. If you don’t comply with these requirements, your insurance provider may deny your claim if there is damage to your home or its contents.
Avoiding & Minimizing Damage: Regular checks can help prevent damage before it starts by identifying problems beforehand. They can also reduce damage by promptly addressing issues like burst pipes and flooding.
Reducing the Likelihood of Vandalism & Break-ins: Having someone check on your home regularly can dissuade people from vandalizing or breaking into your property and make it less obvious that you’re away for a long time by removing mail and flyers, turning on lights from time to time and maintaining the exterior of your home.
Yard Maintenance & Property Care: Not only does a well-maintained yard enhance the overall curb appeal of a property, but it also provides the appearance that someone is inhabiting the home. This type of upkeep can dissuade potential vandalism/theft, and it can also save a homeowner time and money in the long run.
Liability Insurance & Security Check: Knowing your home is in the hands of someone who has been vetted and comes with liability insurance provides additional levels of comfort and security for a homeowner. If someone is injured or if the house/property is accidentally damaged while being maintained, both parties can rest easy knowing they are covered.
