What is Home Watch?
The term Home Watch is defined as a visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.

They go at it alone, or they will rely on a neighbor or nearby family member to ‘keep an eye out’ and hope that nothing goes wrong. This can have disastrous results. Problems such as plumbing leaks, rodent/pest infestations, even squatters on your property can not only be costly, but can also ruin the time you have in your treasured home.
