Winter Home Watch Programs

HomeWatch - A Great Winter Service!

Do you own properties out of state? Do you have properties that are vacant in the Northern climates (zones 6 or further to the North).

With the recent freezing temperatures that hit us here in the Chicagoland area, check with your area property managers if they offer a service to check your home and make sure the heat is functioning properly! As an owner-landlord don't get caught in the cold this winter!

Cold temperatures can cause pipes to freeze, or issues with exterior fascia, siding and roofing if there is a problem. A pair of boots on the ground locally can stop in and review the property if it is vacant to see if anything troubling has manifested or any preventative maintenance that should be considered.

Even if the home is secure in keeping the climate at bay, consider a periodic check-in for unwanted guests of any kind. Property managers sometimes offer a service to set up a temporary portable alarm system that would identify any intruders looking for shelter in the winter months.

For owners of property in the Chicagoland area, if you think this is a service you'd be interested in, please reach out to us. We can recommend excellent service providers for the area that specialize in property management, the right way!
