Home Watch is defined as a visual observation of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.

At Home Watch Pros of Naples, that means we perform professional home watch visits to check on your vacant home, looking for signs of damage, maintenance concerns, or security issues. We provide a written, photo-documented report after each visit so you always know the condition of your home.

At Home Watch Pros of Naples, we customize our visits to match the needs and comfort level of each client, with a minimum of two visits per month.

Most homeowners choose weekly visits or every-other-week visits, which has proven to be the safest balance of protection and value. We do not offer once-a-month visits, because too many issues can arise in between. For example, if your A/C failed shortly after we left and the home sat unchecked for 29 days, the risk of mold growth becomes extremely high. In Southwest Florida’s humidity, mold can begin developing in as little as 48 hours under the right conditions.
By scheduling more frequent visits, you ensure your home is consistently monitored and protected against costly surprises.

Every Home Watch visit is a visual check of your property, designed to identify obvious issues before they become costly problems. At Home Watch Pros of Naples, our standard visit includes:

• Checking HVAC systems and humidity levels to reduce the chances mold growth.
• Looking for plumbing leaks, water intrusion, and moisture concerns.
• Verifying doors, windows, and locks for proper security.
• Observing the pool, landscaping, and exterior condition.
• Collecting mail, packages, and deliveries to prevent buildup.

After each visit, you’ll receive a GPS-verified, time-stamped report with photos, so you know exactly when we were there and what we observed.

Home Watch Pros of Naples carries professional liability insurance, general liability insurance, and a bond for Home Watch services. This layered coverage ensures both you and your property are protected every time we visit.

Many seasonal homeowners don’t realize that if they rely on a friend or neighbor to “keep an eye” on their home, that person likely does not carry any insurance. If something goes wrong, the homeowner could be left fully responsible. By choosing a professional, insured, and bonded company, you gain peace of mind, accountability, and financial protection that informal arrangements simply can’t provide.

Living in Southwest Florida means preparing for hurricanes and severe weather is a must. Home Watch Pros of Naples provides both pre-storm and post-storm visits to give our clients peace of mind during hurricane season.

• Pre-storm visits: We help secure outdoor items, check shutters, and follow your specific instructions to prepare the property.
• Post-storm visits: Once it’s safe, we return to your home to look for obvious signs of damage, take photos, and provide a detailed report. This allows you to act quickly with insurance companies, contractors, or restoration vendors if repairs are needed.

With professional, GPS-verified reporting, you’ll know exactly when your home was checked and what we observed — no guessing, no delays.

This is one of the most common questions we get. While the two services may sound similar, they are very different:

• Home Watch: A proactive service for seasonal homeowners. We make scheduled visits, perform a visual check for obvious issues, and send you GPS-verified reports with photos. Our role is to help identify problems early so you can take quick action. We do not manage tenants or handle rental activity.

• Property Management: A service designed for rental properties. Property managers handle tenants, leases, rent collection, maintenance scheduling, and repairs on occupied homes.

Unlike a neighbor simply “checking in,” Home Watch Pros provides professional, GPS-tracked visits with photo-documented reports. We’re Certified Home Watch Academy graduates and operate under the oversight of a Licensed Florida Mold Assessor, ensuring inspector-level attention to detail. We’re also fully insured and bonded, with hurricane-season readiness built into our service. Simply put, we bring accountability, training, and peace of mind no neighbor can match.
