Home Watch Services
for Second Homes & Vacation Properties
In addition to full-service property management, Monarch Coast Property Management proudly offers Home Watch Services for second homes, vacation residences, and unoccupied properties. Designed for homeowners who do not rent out their properties but want peace of mind while away, our Home Watch program provides regularly scheduled visual inspections to help detect and report issues early—before they become costly problems.
Each visit includes a thorough interior and exterior walkthrough, checking for signs of water intrusion, pest activity, vandalism, or system malfunctions. We also offer optional services such as vehicle start-up, mail collection, concierge access for vendors, and trash bin management.
Our Home Watch Services are professionally delivered, discreet, and reasonably priced, and can be tailored to meet your preferred frequency and needs. Whether you’re away for a few weeks or several months, we’re here to make sure your home is cared for as if it were our own.
For homes up to 5,000 square feet, Home Watch Services start at $200 per month (bi-monthly visits), $400 per month (weekly visits). Additional Services are available. Call us for a custom estimate.
