    What a home-watch visit should inspect

    • Interior walk-through of every room with date-stamped photos
    • Temperature and humidity reading, and confirmation the HVAC is running
    • Every sink, shower and toilet checked for leaks, then run and flushed
    • Water heater, supply lines and under-sink connections inspected
    • Ceilings, window sills and exterior walls checked for water intrusion
    • Pest evidence check in kitchen, garage and utility spaces
    • Refrigerator, freezer and ice maker verified
    • Exterior walk: roofline, gutters, drainage, pool level and equipment
    • Doors, windows, alarm and access codes confirmed secure
    • Written report with photos delivered after every visit

    How often, in Port Aransas

    • Every 7 days is the interval most owners settle on for an unoccupied home, and it is what most insurers and warranty terms are easiest to satisfy.
    • Every 14 days is workable for shorter absences in mild conditions, but it doubles how long a slow leak runs undetected.
    • In this climate, humidity damage develops in days, not weeks — weekly visits during summer are the practical floor.
    • Storm season adds two non-routine visits: preparation before an event and inspection after it.
    • Check your own insurance policy and any HOA rules for vacancy conditions — they vary, and this is not legal or insurance advice.

    Ashota can source and coordinate providers for a home here — check availability for your address before assuming a specific service is covered.

    What changes the price

    • Visit frequency — the single biggest factor
    • Home size and how many buildings or systems are covered
    • Whether storm response and vendor meets are included
    • Distance from the provider's normal route

    Documentation to insist on

    • A date-stamped photo set from every visit, not just a note that the visit happened.
    • A written report you can forward to an insurer, HOA or buyer.
    • An escalation path: who calls whom when something is wrong, and what they are pre-authorised to spend.
    • A log kept over time, so the home has a maintenance history rather than a pile of texts.
