Home Watch and Inspections in Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley

Whether it is your primary residence, a second home, or a rental property, a home that sits empty in the desert needs someone paying attention. Nicholas and Philip personally conduct every home watch visit, treat your home and yard as if they were our own, and send you a photo report after each one. Away for a weekend or the entire season, you will always know how your home is doing.

How Often We Visit

Most seasonal homeowners choose weekly or every-other-week visits, and some homeowners insurance policies require a vacant home to be checked at set intervals. We will recommend a schedule based on your home, your policy, and how long you will be away, and adjust it whenever your plans change.

Seasonal Opening and Closing

Arriving for the season should feel like coming home, not starting a project. Before you arrive, we check the house, air it out, and make sure everything is ready. When you leave, we help close the home properly and keep watching it until you return.

Move-In and Move-Out Rental Inspections

For owners of long-term rentals, we document the condition of your property with detailed photos at move-in and move-out, giving you a clear record between tenants. Between tenancies, the same home watch visits keep a vacant rental protected.

Built for the Desert

Desert homes face risks that homes elsewhere do not. Summer temperatures regularly climb past 110 degrees, so an air conditioning failure can quickly damage electronics, artwork, and anything heat-sensitive. Monsoon storms bring wind damage and sudden leaks, and pests look for shade and water indoors. Regular visits catch these problems early, before a small issue becomes an expensive one.

When Something Needs Attention

If we find a problem, we let you know right away and coordinate the right local professional to fix it. We work only with rigorously vetted vendors and never add markups. Many clients pair home watch with our preventative home maintenance service, so routine upkeep happens on schedule whether they are here or away.

Areas We Serve

We provide home watch across the Coachella Valley, including Palm Springs, North Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, and Indio.

Licensed, Insured, and Bonded

We hold a City of Palm Springs business license and carry $1 million per occurrence in general liability coverage and $1 million in professional liability coverage. We are also covered by a $100,000 surety bond that protects clients against theft or dishonesty. California does not issue a specific license for home watch services, so we follow recognized industry best practices for every visit. Certificates of insurance are available on request.

Home Watch Questions

Who performs the visits?
Nicholas and Philip personally conduct every home watch visit. You will always know who is in your home, and your home will always be seen by someone who knows it.

What happens if you find a problem?
We contact you right away with photos and a clear explanation, then coordinate a trusted local professional with your approval. We follow the repair through to completion and confirm it in your next report.

Can you help with more than my home?
Yes. Home watch is often where our relationships begin. We also help with appointments, errands, technology, and coordination for families who live far from a loved one here in the valley.
