Below we have gathered over 78 (to be exact) different prices from professional companies in Southwest Florida and calculated an average price of 2 visits each month and 4 visits each month. The price also depends of the size of the property, an apartment may be cheaper than a large family house. Square footage is key.


Note: Prices may have increased due to inflation and are location dependent.

It's not uncommon to hear of cheaper alternatives, with neighbors or Mr. John down the road offering their services at significantly lower rates. However, it's crucial to consider what you're truly paying for. Let's delve into the expenses associated with a single home watch visit:

  • Travel time to the property, typically around 15 minutes.
  • Property inspection time, averaging 20-25 minutes depending on property size.
  • Administrative tasks such as report writing, mail scanning, and photo uploading.
  • Vehicle expenses, including fuel and wear.
  • Business overheads, such as insurance, taxes, and invoicing.


Very unlikely you will receive quality and honest work for such a low price. 

What do you recommend?

We believe in professional work for a reasonable price. You have spent your hard heard money on a second home in Naples, Florida to relax during your vacation. You do not want to arrive with damages to be fixed, a broken AC or bugs inside your home. Spend the extra little money to hire a trustworthy home watch to enter your home, be notified immediately when something happens and enjoy your vacation from day one. Finding a leak damage early enough, such as a leaking dishwasher or water heater can save you thousands of dollars in restoration.


Take this amount of money you have saved and you can pay a Home Watch for the next ten years.
