OUR SERVICE
Call/Text
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 and let’s not forget hurricane and storm season. Many things can go wrong in 30 days in an unoccupied property. That is why we strongly recommend 2-4 home watch inspection visits per month.
Snowbird Home Patrol Home Watch Services is designed to give you peace of mind while you are away from your home. Your home is being inspected by professionals looking for potential problems. Our company has designed a checklist based on your individual needs and concerns. If a situation does arise, you will be notified so the problem can be dealt with in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

Many of the homes in Florida have attached garages, so the description below will be that of an attached garage. Once entered the service would be the same for unattached garages and out buildings.

A vacant home is a vulnerable home. The more preventative measures taken to prep your home for when you’re away, the less chance for problems. 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 home watch professional conduct regular visits of your vacant home and provide you with a report of their findings each visit.
A detailed Home watch Inspection Report is completed during each home watch inspection. It will display the condition of your property along with the date and time the inspection is completed.
You no longer need to guess if someone was actually at your home. Our software system uses GPS so that you will know an inspector was actually at your property.
HOME WATCH RATES

It is also a good time to interview her since she will be coming into your home while you are gone.
All inspections come with the following services, if or when applicable:
