Owning a home, second home, or vaction home you don’t live in full-time can be a dream — until something goes wrong while you’re away and it quickly becomes a nightmare.


💧 A small plumbing leak turns into major water damage❄️ A furnace fails during a cold snap📦 Packages pile up, signaling an empty home🌩️ Storm damage goes unnoticed


These issues rarely happen when someone is home — they happen when no one is watching.


That’s exactly why Jergensen Enterprises Property Management launched our new Home Watch & Monitoring Program.


🔍 What Is a Home Watch Service?

A Home Watch service is a proactive, professional visual observation checklist of your property while it is vacant or unoccupied.


Unlike alarm systems that only react after something happens, Home Watch focuses on:

✅ Prevention✅ Early detection✅ Ongoing peace of mind


We physically inspect your home’s interior and exterior, monitor key areas and systems, and report issues before they become costly repairs.



👤 Who Is Home Watch Designed For?

Our Home Watch & Monitoring Program is ideal for:

🏠 Second-home owners☀️ Snowbirds who leave seasonally✈️ Owners who travel frequently🚪 Vacant or newly purchased homes🔄 Properties between tenants or rentals


If you’re not at your property 100% of the time, Home Watch helps protect your investment when you can’t be there.


🛠️ What We Look For During Home Watch Visits

Each visit is designed to catch problems early and confirm your home is secure and functioning properly.

📡 Smart Monitoring

This technology helps us respond faster and smarter if something changes in your home.
