Local property care when you can't be there

HomeTame provides local property monitoring, security checks, emergency response, and property protection for owners who need someone they trust to look after a second home, vacant property, rental, investment property, inherited home, or property far from where they live. For one-time repairs, installations, and trade jobs, browse Home Services; this page focuses on ongoing property care and coordination.

Security observations and keyholder services

Physical property checks can help identify visible signs of unauthorized activity, forced entry, damage, or security concerns. Depending on the request, service may include:

  • Security walkthroughs and checks of doors, windows, locks, gates, fences, and outbuildings
  • Camera, sensor, or alarm-system checks when arranged
  • Authorized keyholder access for inspections, service visits, or emergencies
  • Incident documentation, owner notification, and coordination of an authorized response

Property inspections and condition checks

Regular on-site visual inspections document accessible interior and exterior conditions. Checks may include:

  • Doors, windows, visible roof or exterior conditions, and entry points
  • Visible plumbing, leak, water-damage, HVAC, or electrical concerns
  • Landscaping, pool, general property condition, or signs of vandalism
  • Photos and a report of observations from the visit

Vacant and second-home monitoring

An empty or seasonally occupied home can develop problems without anyone noticing. Scheduled visits can look for:

  • Break-ins, vandalism, property damage, or suspicious activity
  • Water or plumbing problems and weather-related damage
  • Unsecured doors or windows, exterior deterioration, or maintenance issues
  • Other visible conditions that may need the owner's attention

Emergency property response

When a property concern is reported or discovered, HomeTame can respond when available to assess accessible areas, document visible conditions, notify designated contacts, and coordinate authorized next steps.

  • Security alarms, suspected break-ins, vandalism, or unauthorized entry
  • Storm damage, broken windows, damaged doors, or other urgent concerns
  • On-site documentation and communication with the owner
  • Coordination with authorized contractors or other appropriate parties

Property board-up and securing

When an opening is damaged, HomeTame may coordinate or provide temporary protection, depending on the situation and availability.

  • Window or door board-up and securing accessible openings
  • Temporary barriers and post-incident property checks
  • Photo documentation of visible conditions
  • Coordination of authorized providers when specialized work is needed

Vacant property cleanout

HomeTame can help coordinate removal of unwanted furniture, belongings, and debris from already-vacant properties with owner authorization. Eligible small loads may be handled directly; larger cleanouts require an appropriate provider and a separate quote. HomeTame does not remove people, tenants, or squatters, perform evictions, or remove disputed belongings.

Property damage documentation

HomeTame can photograph and document visible property damage, break-in damage, vandalism, broken windows or doors, storm damage, exterior conditions, and security concerns. Documentation can be shared with the owner, property manager, insurer, contractor, or another authorized party.

Maintenance and repair coordination

With the owner's authorization, HomeTame can help coordinate access and communication with local service providers, including locksmiths, window repair, board-up, handyman, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, landscaping, cleanup, and other property-maintenance services. Licensed and specialized providers perform their own technical work.

Local check-in and property access

When authorized, HomeTame can provide local access for property inspections, alarm events, emergencies, contractor visits, maintenance appointments, and utility or service appointments. Access is limited to the purposes and instructions agreed with the property owner.

Built for properties needing local oversight

Services may suit second homes, vacation homes, vacant, rental, investment, inherited, distressed, or renovation properties, as well as owners who live far away or cannot visit regularly. Confirm location and service availability before booking.

Details and contact preferences

Live video walkthroughs during scheduled property checks and virtual meetings are available upon request. Arrange a walkthrough in advance; availability depends on scheduling, a safe visit, and an adequate internet or cellular connection. Live video is not continuous monitoring or a licensed home inspection and does not replace the visit report. Ask in your message and share your preferred times; HomeTame will confirm availability and send the meeting invitation. To reduce phishing risk, we only use meeting links provided by HomeTame and do not accept customer-supplied meeting links. If an invitation looks suspicious, contact info@hometame.com to verify it before opening.

For an immediate threat to life or safety, call 911 first. Do not include passwords, alarm or access codes, or payment-card details. See our Privacy Policy.
