Whether your home is a vacation house or a rental property, having someone you can trust to ensure your property is safe and cared for is crucial to protecting your investment.
Las Sendas resident Brad Smith saw the value of these services after owning and managing a short-term rental property and wanted to provide a high-value home watch product to his neighbors.
He became an accredited member of the National Home Watch Association, learned the Association’s software offerings, and had his company licensed and insured to provide his customers the best possible service and experience.
“Protecting the homeowner and their assets is our goal,” he said. “We want to build a relationship with the homeowner so they have someone on the ground, in the area that they can call — whether it’s an emergency situation or they have furniture being delivered.”
As part of the home watch services, customers can expect a customized inspection of their home followed by a comprehensive report with updates and photos. The service includes a variety of checks to ensure the home is secure and running smoothly, including a visual inspection, appliance cycling, irrigation system check, filter changes, mail pickup, and much more depending on the home and client’s specific needs.
“When you talk to National Home Watch Association members, you hear from every single person that, at one point or another, they’ve saved a homeowner from an extremely expensive repair because they’ve caught the power going out, the AC going down, or bugs infiltrating the home. Detecting these things early on and dealing with them quickly can save a lot of money,” said Brad.
Sasq-Watch Home Services also offers a variety of concierge services such as mail and package forwarding, grocery pickup, repair coordination, and more to give homeowners peace of mind while they are away. “When people come to their homes, they want to be able to enjoy them, and this service allows them to do that,” said Brad. “They don’t have to say, ‘Gosh, the refrigerator’s been out for a month, and it smells awful in here. We’re going to spend our entire time cleaning that up.’”
The home watch services are also ideal for short-term rental owners who live out of state. Sasq-Watch Home Services can help coordinate transitions between guests and ensure there are no missing items or damage to make your rental business as stress-free as possible.
“When you look at why you invested in your home, home watch services are a small price to pay to ensure the value of your investment and make sure it’s protected,” said Brad.
