Absentee-Owner Services Guide
Build a home-watch and coordination business for deployed or PCS'd owners around one recurring agreement, a consistent inspection checklist, and time-stamped documentation the owner can act on. This 20-page guide walks through why the empty-house market is thinner than it looks, why you're selling insurance and evidence rather than a walk-through a neighbor would do for free, and how to control the liability tail — plus seven working templates to run it with.

What It Covers
Sell one recurring home-watch agreement, with written authorization, controlled keys, identity checks, and entry logs, before expanding into turn coordination or repair work. Use a consistent exterior and interior checklist on every authorized visit, and back every visit with time-stamped photos so the report is the deliverable. Report conditions and coordinate approved vendors without making unlicensed repairs, and document damage, access, and escalation before it becomes a liability dispute. Use the startup, budget, estimate, service agreement, invoice, and tracker templates plus the compliance page for every property under watch.
