Home watch memberships
A home watch membership puts someone local in your house on a set schedule, with a dated photo report after each visit, so problems get caught while they're small.

- Electrical panel, smoke alarms and security system
- Exterior walk: roofline from the ground, gutters, grounds, signs of pests

- Higher plans add: Every faucet run and every toilet flushed so seals stay wet; Signs of pests and moisture checked on every visit; Mail and package collection; Every pre- and post-storm check, all season, at no extra charge; Priority scheduling; A visit every week, so the house is never more than seven days unchecked; Appliances run and checked each month; Aging equipment noted so you can plan replacements
Home watch visits are for homes that are empty while we're there. If someone is staying in the house, let us know and we'll move the visit. Air filter changes aren't part of a visit: Royal's maintenance team can set them up as a separate maintenance service.

Questions
How often should someone check my home?
Most second homes do well with two visits a month. Weekly visits suit larger or waterfront homes, homes with pools or older systems, and the peak of hurricane season. Your insurance agent can tell you what your policy expects for a vacant home.
What happens if a visit is missed?
If we miss a scheduled visit, the visit still happens. If it happens more than 3 business days late, we refund the charge for that visit.
Is there a setup fee?
There's no setup fee to start a membership. Pay a year up front and you pay for 10 months, not 12.
