What does On Point check for while I’m away? How often do these on-site inspections happen? We are happy to answer all your questions.

What is Home Watch?

Home Watch is a professional service providing assurances that your home is protected through regular on-site inspections. Home watching services can be helpful for anyone who owns multiple homes or for people going away on short or long term vacations. These services can include maintenance, security, plumbing, electrical, pests, and mold, which can be present even during short periods of time. Inspectors will immediately notify the homeowner before the problem gets worse and will often ask how to proceed with the issue.

What is a Florida Home Watch Checklist?

This checklist is a list of things that are checked while a homeowner is away from their property. It is always performed on-site at the home and the frequency that a home watch professional checks on the property is usually weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly depending on the client. South Florida is very well known for mold within homes as it can spread quickly, so we incorporate this within our checklist based on how much damage it can do to a house. On Point Home Watch Solutions is transparent with our exterior and interior checklists and even offers more property management services that are provided at an additional cost. For more information, please check out our services page for a more in-depth listing of everything included in both our basic and custom packages. 

What types of payments do you accept?

We accept personal checks, cash, Venmo, and Zelle.

Can I pay you monthly instead of bi-weekly or weekly?

Yes, we offer bi-weekly, weekly, and monthly payments depending on each client’s needs.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract for service?

We have no long-term contacts. Your service is considered to be month-to-month, however, we ask for a minimum of two weeks for a cancellation of services. If the cancellation is not made within two weeks of the service then a cancellation fee of 50% of the services will be charged.
