Going on a trip this summer? Here’s how to keep your home safe while you’re away

Summer is the season of sun, fun, and travel. But going out of town leaves your greatest asset—your home—vacant. And vacancy can lead to vulnerability. 

Consider engaging a Home Watch professional to ensure you return to find your house the way you left it!

What is Home Watch, you ask? 

Home Watch providers conduct regular interior and exterior property inspections looking for obvious issues. Should a problem arise, the provider assists the homeowner in resolving the situation. Think of a Home Watch professional as your eyes and ears on the ground, offering you peace of mind while you are away from home.

You may have another question—what could really go wrong? 

A pipe bursts and causes water damage. Your AC malfunctions and mold starts to grow. Mice move in and throw a party in the pantry. The electricity goes out and your internet needs to be rebooted. You get the idea!

So, whether you’re looking forward to enjoying an annual vacation or embarking on an extended trip, don’t spend your time away with that nagging worry. Engaging a professional can mean the difference between damage and disaster.
